"When an uninvited squirrel guest made itself at home in my house, l turned to Barnes Wildlife Control for help. Their expertise in animal and pest control was evident from the start. They promptly identified potential entry points for the rodent and provided a reasonably priced quote for the necessary repairs. What stood out to me was the service representative, Omar, who conducted a thorough examination of my home. His attention to detail and professionalism were commendable. On the day of the repair, Omar courteously gave me a heads-up about their arrival time, which I greatly appreciated. The team at Barnes Wildlife Control not only fixed the issue but also ensured that I was completely satisfied with their work. It's a relief to know that such a reliable and efficient service is just a call away. I highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control for anyone in need of animal and pest control services."

"Michael Lyday was the technician and was very professional and courteous. He set a trap and returned the next morning to find a female raccoon. He also found she’d been nursing and captured two kits in the crawl space. He told me to tell him if I heard anymore sounds which I did when he returned the following day. He captured two more kits and told me to call him again if I heard any more sounds. There weren’t any more and I was impressed that he still called to follow up. I was completely satisfied with his humane methods of removing the animals from my property."

"Not good. Torched grass before a holiday weekend. Told me it wasn't that bad and would recover. Second (and last) time they have done this. Seem to have a "customer is never right" policy. High prices and poor service are a bad combo."

"Very friendly, courteous team. They explained everything clearly and were very thorough. They had to go up to the Attic through the the bedroom closet. I covered one side of the closet clothing with plastic. I received a call from that tech indicating that he was done but that the plastic came off and he didn't want to come down until the clothes were covered again. Very considerate and customer focused. Very happy with their work and with the two that came to inspect and resolve my issue. A week later and no issues or noises."

We love wildlife, but believe wild animals need to remain in the wild. With habitat destruction, pests are looking for new homes and this can often be walls, attics, chimneys, crawlspace, or yards in your home or business. In order to maintain nature’s balance, our team of experts is equipped to remove wildlife from your home. There are many risks to people and pets when sharing space with wildlife. Many wild animals prey on livestock and pets, which can lead to devastating veterinary bills and losses to property. Wild animals also pose health risks to people and domestic animals because they carry diseases and parasites leaving their feces throughout your home or business. Further, they can cause moderate to severe damage to your buildings, vehicles, and land by burrowing, chewing on wires, urinating, defecating, and eating gardens and lawns. Let our staff easily take care of the problem for you today, 937-241-8790 Discounts are available to Angie's list subscribers. Additional Email - [email protected]

"Outstanding work on both projects. Jeff Krznarich completed both with absolute professionalism, great communication, keeping me the customer informed of the status, performed all requests on time. I was absolutely 100% happy with both projects and would definitely consider his company for further work. A++++"

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Probably not. Many imitation nests are meant to be hung from trees or other tall places, but not all yellow jackets nest up high—most species, such as the common yellow jacket and the southern yellow jacket, build nests in the ground. 

Ensure proper ventilation, address leaks, and conduct regular inspections.

If you’re dealing with a bee colony on your property, you might wonder if they’ll leave naturally over time. The answer depends on their circumstances. Bees often relocate if the hive becomes overcrowded, food is scarce, or they face a threat. With that said, if a hive’s location is safe, warm, and with plentiful food sources, they are unlikely to relocate on their own, and the hive may persist for many generations.

Bees are relocated to safe habitats, ensuring their continued role in pollination without risk to your home.

Some bees may return after the nest is removed. These are called "straggler" bees, and it may take them a couple of weeks before they leave. The reason is the nest may have been removed while the bees were away. These bees don't typically survive long once the nest is gone, so you may want to contact a beekeeper to help relocate them elsewhere.
