"Joe Rangel from Great Lakes Pet Fencing is really good with our energetic labradoodle. Trust was developed quickly. Our dog trained extremely quickly and is able to run freely (without a leash) within the boundary. Our dog's freedom and our freedom is invaluable!"

"Neil was awesome. Through the whole process from the initial call to request a quote, get a quote, and determine a date of installation (which he accommodated an evening installation to work around my work schedule) to the physical installation, Neil was the epitome of 5-star service and he had a top-notch understanding of his system and setup. He's a proud owner of the local branch/franchise of the company, and it shows. He was easy to talk to not only about the fence but about family and life in general. By his representation, I would always go back to him for any support or new fences we may need in the future. And I highly recommend him for your own pet fence. He was great with our dog with training as well and he explained everything clearly and easily for continued training. I'm happy with everything about it!"

Animal Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

Don’t count on squirrels leaving on their own. Squirrels like the safety that a cozy attic provides and won’t be in a hurry to leave, especially if they’ve recently given birth to a litter. It’s best to address the situation with DIY removal tactics or hire a squirrel removal pro as soon as you suspect squirrels are living in your attic.

Some suggest mothballs as a deterrent for iguanas, but they are ineffective and harmful. Mothballs contain chemicals like naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are toxic to humans and animals, including iguanas. The fumes can cause respiratory problems, skin irritation, and other health issues. Moreover, using mothballs outdoors is not recommended, as they contaminate soil and water sources.

Armadillos are most active during cooler hours to avoid extreme temperatures, particularly the daytime heat in the warm climates where they live. This activity pattern helps them reduce the risk of overheating and dehydration. They are generally active from late at night to early morning, often between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m., but can also be seen around dawn and dusk. An exception to this is during mating season (June-July in the northern hemisphere, November-December in the southern hemisphere), when male armadillos may be more active than usual.

Scarecrows and lifelike animal decoys, such as snakes, owls, coyotes, foxes, and hawks, can initially deter rabbits. However, these tactics might lose effectiveness if rabbits learn they are harmless. Having your dog or cat roam and mark the yard with their scent can also prove beneficial. Keep in mind tactics like these work best when combined with other methods.

Squirrels rely heavily on their sense of smell and are deterred by a variety of scents. Some of the most effective smells for repelling them include peppermint oil, coffee grounds, white vinegar, garlic, cinnamon, rosemary, and predator urine. They also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based sprays an effective repellent for areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a spray from garlic and vinegar and apply it daily. Additionally, squirrels dislike strong, fresh scents, so placing items like strong-smelling soaps or dryer sheets in areas they frequent can also help keep them away.
