"Did an excellent job of sealing up the house. Could not install the one-way vents until after August 15 due to protection for the bats during the breeding season. Will return after that date and finish the job. He only charged for the work that was completed. My neighbor had used him in the past and was well pleased."

"Great job - came out in a timely manner, located and plugged the openings, installed an exit for the bats. When they were gone, he came back, removed the exit and plugged the hole; the multi year guarantee is nice and he already came back when i thought the bats were back (nope, chimney swifts, chimney cap ordered). Highly recommend."

"John was very professional and efficient. He was able to get to us fairly quickly. He explained what he needed to do and approximately how long it would take. He also came back a few weeks later and cleaned and sanitized the area, which was helpful to my husband and I."

"Damien came out today and inspected our attic for possible bats but thank goodness there wasn’t any but must be birds. He sealed all the open areas that something can go in or out. The charge was very very reasonable to be honest not much at all. In the near future if we need someone again will will definitely call this company back. Thank you Damien."

"My service pro is Vince. I have lived at my current address for about 5 years and during this time, I have used several different pest control providers. Vince, with O.C.D Pest Solutions provided the most comprehensive initial pest control treatment I have ever seen. I always pay close attention to workmanship during the first few appointments and I must say; I have never seen a technician extend a wand to the eaves on my home and remove all of the spider webs. He also located and destroyed all of the wasp nests that were on my home. While treating he took the time to explain in detail all of the treatments and what I can expect from each. Hands down the most comprehensive pest control treatment that I have ever had. Finding a company that genuinely thrives on helping others and solving problems is not easy these days! Look no further, I highly recommend O.C.D Pest Solutions."

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Identifying the specific animal running on your roof at night can be challenging without direct observation. Common nocturnal roof visitors include raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and rats. Raccoons are bigger and can create heavy thumping sounds. Squirrels are agile and may produce rapid scurrying noises. Opossums tend to move stealthily with less noise. Rats can make scratching or gnawing sounds. To determine the culprit, look for signs like footprints, droppings, or damaged areas near the roof. For accurate identification, consult a pest control professional or set up wildlife cameras near potential entry points.

If you’re having trouble with your traps, first examine them for flaws that would allow a squirrel to escape easily, such as loose doors or hinges. It’s also important to consider the location of your trap: Place it in areas with higher squirrel traffic, and make sure it’s on a sturdy surface so it can’t wobble or tip (squirrels aren’t likely to walk in a trap that isn’t stable). Lastly, try changing out your bait—in-shell peanuts or peanut butter often work best.

While foxes may find them unpleasant, mothballs are not an effective deterrent. Additionally, mothballs are toxic for humans and animals and should never be used outside. They contain naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are very harmful to the environment. Use safer, more reliable deterrents, or hire a professional wildlife control expert.

Scent deterrents like ammonia, vinegar, mothballs, and pepper can help keep coyotes away, but these are best used in tandem with other preventative measures. Remember that ammonia and vinegar can kill your plants and/or grass, so it’s best to soak rags in these substances or spray them on hardscaped areas to avoid damaging your landscape.

Signs of badgers in a yard or garden include large burrow holes 2 to 9 feet deep and 1 to 2 feet wide in your lawn or garden or under your fence. Badgers may even break through fences in some cases. Partially eaten fruits, vegetables, and animal carcasses can also be a sign. Look for bits of fur, bones, spines, and skulls.
