I pride myself on reliability, great communication, integrity, and quality work. I strongly believe in giving my absolute best in all the projects no matter how big or small. I am an expert in my trade and will always keep you educated on your task or project. I look forward to earning your business!

"Ramos Wildlife Removal were the only company not outrageously priced when asked to remove a trapped wildlife animal. I had already purchased traps and caught an opossum the first night-now I just needed someone to come take it away. Most companies wanted $250 and above, just for removal. Ramos was very considerate of my situation given I lived in a townhouse that I only rented. Since I explained I had a family of opossum and raccoons making a ruckus at night he only charged $150 to remove the first animal and stated any other removal would just cost $75. Not only was Ramos understanding, but they were here the same day within less then an hour. I will be doing business with this company again, and I'd highly recommend them to assist in wildlife removal."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Some birds of prey, like owls, hunt at night. Hawks are diurnal and need good light to see their prey. You could see them circling anytime from dawn to dusk. Species like the common red-tailed hawk are most active in the early morning and late evening when their prey is also typically on the go.

There’s little scientific evidence to suggest that homemade remedies to ward off wildlife are effective. But, often, when using them alongside other management techniques, it won’t do any harm to try. Suggestions include using urine-soaked kitty litter or sweat-soaked clothing items. Try applying them around your fence perimeters. Always read the instructions carefully for any commercially-bought repellents and opt for EPA-approved products. Multiple applications, especially after rain, are often necessary.

You don’t have to worry about a termite infestation wreaking havoc on your home within days or weeks. It takes several months or years for significant structural damage to occur. The destruction rate depends on the colony’s size and maturity, the wood they’re feeding on, and the local conditions. Serious termite damage usually takes 3 to 8 years. But you should still take steps to treat your home and prevent termite return as soon as you spot their signs.

Most bugs that get into and reside inside our homes are harmless. However, you should address the presence of harmful ones, such as bed bugs, roaches, or termites, that can harm you and your home. Additionally, if you notice a significant increase in bug sightings of any kind, it's a good time to perform a home inspection, looking for water or structural damage that could be inviting them in. 

Various mites can cause health problems, such as allergies and skin irritation, and worsen respiratory issues for pets and people. Some mites, such as scabies and chiggers, can transmit disease or bacterial infection. It’s best to have mites eradicated from your home and seek medical care if you have symptoms from mites.
