Jay Harmeyer, the owner, was great to work with. He responded promptly, installed traps on the exterior entrances to the attic (wood louvers which squirrels had eaten through) that were almost 30' in the air, and applied steel mesh wire to prevent them from entering again. While the traps did not catch any squirrels trying to re-enter, the mesh helped to keep them out. The traps remained in place for about a week before Jay came to remove them. While no squirrels were caught, the issue was resolved. I removed a squirrel's nest from the attic, where it looked like they had inhabited for a short period of time, then left. I felt the price was reasonable for what they were able to do. I will not hesitate to call Jay again for any wildlife removal.

Poor guy came all the way out here, on a Sunday, only to discover the mounds were mis-identified: chipmunks, not moles, were the culprits. However, he was so nice, and didn't charge me anything, so if I need something else (or someday decide chipmunks _aren't_ too cute to kill), I would hire his company.

Very well. Cage traps were installed that resulted in removal of not only one skunk, but two raccoons and two opossums also. Substantial screening was installed around the base of the porch to recurrence. They kept cages in place for about two weeks after the last animal was captured to ensure that there were no others underneath.

They came out promptly and took care of the animals. The price was exactly what I have been quoted, although it was higher than I would have liked, but their professionalism, punctuality, and quality job done more than made up for the slightly higher price. I would definitely hire them again if we have additional wild animal issues!

Jay and Joey came right out the next day and set traps for the squirrels and were able to do it essentially 3 stories up on the back of our house. Jay explained everything and is very knowledgeable. Every time a squirrel was caught, I called and they came out in less than 24 hours, got it and reset the trap. They ended up trapping 5 squirrels in all! They took care of everything professionally and quickly and all I had to do was give them a call! After taking care of the squirrels, they put a matching metal patch over the squirrel hole in the fascia board so I didn't have to call an additional contractor to patch the hole! We've had no further trouble from the squirrels! We're very, very pleased with their job and have recommended them to neighbors who have subsequently used them for squirrel removal. They are now our "wildlife problem" guys!

I called on Friday and Jay was able to come the next morning. He checked the attic to confirm that the squirrel was not in the attic, added a temporary plug to the access hole and set a trap. Although we did not catch the squirrel it did not return to the attic and I was able to get the access point secured.

The team who worked with me were professional, understanding, and personable. The removal of the raccoon was challenging and I feel the team was certain they would prevail and the raccoon would be removed.?Since the presence of the animal damaged the attic insulation, it needed to be replaced. It was handled by the same team with the same amount of professionalism.

I contacted Jay and he came out the same day. He spotted at least one raccoon in our chimney and laid out 2 traps. He came out early the next morning and removed 1 raccoon from a trap. After several days and no more raccoons he came back out and saw no more raccoons in the chimney and capped the chimney. He was very courteous and professional throughout the entire process. We're very satisfied with his service and wouldn't hesitate to hire again.

The owner took my call and asked for a few minutes to get back to me. He called within five minutes and told me that he and an assistant were on the way. They arrived within fifteen minutes. They made quick work of loading and securing the deer carcass on their truck. This was not an inexpensive service, but I was not going to remove the animal myself, and could not have accomplished the task any faster.
Description of Work: I found a deer carcass lying in my driveway this morning. There was no obvious reason as to why the doe had dropped dead right in front of my garage, but it clearly was blocking my way. A less squeamish person could have dragged the deer to the curb for city pick up, but I had neither time nor inclination. Wildlife Removal Services had dispatched some groundhogs for me a few years ago, so I looked up the number and called to inquire.

Jay was very prompt and knowledgeable. He came out and caught one raccoon and left traps set in the attic for a few days. Came back and the traps were empty. However, a few days later, another one made his presence known. Not sure where it was hiding...must not have liked the marshmallows in the traps. :) I called Jay, he came out to set another trap (with an apple this time) and caught him. Haven't had any issues since.

When Jay arrived, he got the traps ready and we went to the basement. Once we got down there, we found that the raccoons had made their way out at sometime during the night (which save me $140 in the removal cost, $70 per animal removed). Once we found that they were gone, he checked the chimney, and then capped it off so that the raccoons could not return.

There were two male raccoons trapped and a patch was placed on the hole where they gained access to the attic.
Description of Work: I need raccoons trapped. There were a few that had made it into my attic. The rep they they sent was polite and professional. My only problem is that I paid the rep and then the company billed me again for amounts already paid. This was a pain because I had to get check copies as proof. Other than their accounting, they are a good company.

Excellent! Jay, the owner of the company, is the one who came out, and I always appreciate that! He inspected two attic areas, the outside of the house, the gutters, and even climbed on the roof (and my house is very big--the roof is very high up there!). He put foam in any holes or gaps he saw, which was great, and he confirmed we have mice. I was really hoping it was nest of baby unicorns, but, alas, it is rodents. Unfortunately, the wildlife guys don't generally deal with mice, so I have to hire an exterminator now, but I'm happy with the inspection I got and the work he did. I would have worried if I'd have just treated for mice but never got the attics inspected, because there could have been an issue up there I didn't know about.
Description of Work: I heard scratching in the walls of my house and didn't know if it was an animal or mice. The exterminators I called said they'd treat for mice but wouldn't go into my attic to inspect (though now I see there are specific Angie's List deals for Mice Abatement or a Year of Rodent Control, etc. so maybe those deals would have included this...), but considering we've had raccoons and squirrels in the attic before (and birds in the chimney), I felt better getting the attic inspected to understand what sort of creature I was dealing with and if there were any signs of animal issues.

I looked up Wildlife Removal Services on Angie's List and called up Jay in the late afternoon.. He was able to come to my place the next morning by 8:00 AM. This was really very convenient for me because I was working from home that day and I really didn't want to schedule another day and time to be able to meet Jay. He set three traps around my deck. I go outside 2 hours later and there was the big fat groundhog trapped in one of the traps. Jay came and picked up the ground hog within the hour. The only downside was that later that afternoon, a possum got trapped in one of the other traps and I had to pay extra to get him carted off across the river. Jay was very professional.... Extremely fast in responding to my voicemail and coming over to my house for setting up the traps and also for picking up the animals. I would definitely recommend Wildlife Removal Services
Description of Work: I had a groundhog that needed to be caught. He was a really big, fat guy and way too big for the trap that I had. I was concerned that he was causing lots of tunnels underneath my house and wanted him out of there.

Do not call these people if you'd like a response any time this year. They showed up for their initial visit right away but after that forget it. I hired them to get rid of the raccoons that were in my attic and patch up the holes where they were getting in. They set three traps on the ground around the house and caught nothing but squirrels which I had to release. I had a trap of my own and caught 2 which they took away and then one in their trap. After a couple of weeks of no action they finally put a trap on the roof but removed the traps on the ground. They finally caught one but it sat up there for so long (at least 15 hrs) it escaped. It was caught at 900pm and even though I called them first thing in the morning they didn't come until late the next afternoon. A couple of days after that I went in the bathroom during the night and found a raccoon leg coming through the ceiling. I called them immediately the next day and pleaded with their answering machine to help me but again no response. I climbed up on the roof myself and put new bait in their trap several times with no luck. After awhile I noticed their trap was gone from my roof and I got a bill for removing three raccoons. No mention of patching the holes or anything. I had already paid $150.00 for the initial visit and now they wanted another $200.00 for removing three raccoons two of them caught by me. I went on to catch five more raccoons myself and have since then moved. I would also like to add that I'm an old lady with two knee replacements on a fixed income. Climbing a ladder, baiting their stupid trap that didn't work was the last thing I wanted to do. I'm afraid they won't be getting any more money from me.

Response from Wildlife Removal Services
Customer service and satisfaction is our number one goal as our other reports show. This job was opened on 3/26 and closed on 4/23. On the initial visit we informed Mrs [member name removed] that she needed a professional roofer to close the animal entry points found on her roof and soffit areas. We found a lot of rotted wood in the soffit areas. Mrs [member name removed] seemed to understand that she needed a professional roofer to correct the problem and agreed for us to trap raccoons. She has a customer agreement explaining our service, the cost, and how to get in touch with us each day. She agreed to $150.00 service call, and $65.00 per animal. We ask our customers to call us by 9:00 am each day to let us know if there are any caught animals. (Normally, the traps are set where the customer can visually see if an animal is caught.) Mrs. [member name removed] also asked if she could set her traps in addition to the traps we were setting. Our field tech instructed her not to set her traps while we were trapping. (The traps that are available to consumers at big box stores or hardware stores are usually unreliable because they are not baited correctly and they are weakly constructed allowing trapped animals to escape.) We trapped and removed 3 raccoons in less than a week (3/27, 3/30 and 3/31). On 4/1, we came to pick up a 4th animal only to find that it had escaped a trap set by Mrs. [member name removed]. Our traps were still set and undisturbed. Mrs. [member name removed] was asked if she wanted us to continue trapping, of which she agreed. She was asked not to set any of her traps if we were to continue to trap. Our field tech moved our trap sets to the roof of the house. After this, Mrs [member name removed] stopped calling each morning as agreed on the Home Owner Agreement form. Jay called her several times after April 1st, asking her if there were any animals in the traps because she stopped calling in each morning. Unfortunately, Mrs. [member name removed] would not return our calls. So, on 4/23, we removed the traps from the roof and closed the job. No additional animals were caught after 4/1 to our knowledge. We never agree, encourage, or expect our customers to set or reset traps. If we had known this customer was continuing to set traps or rebait our traps or hers, we would have removed our traps immediately and closed the job. There are numerous health and safety issues related to customers touching traps or interacting with trapped wild animals. If she had a problem with the service, she never called the office to complain or discuss the issue. If she had a concern that we were catching too many animals because she is on a fixed income, we would have worked with her. We did not catch or remove any squirrels nor did we bill her for any animals we did not catch. Mrs [member name removed] has been sent at least 3 invoices over the last 5 months in an attempt to collect the $195.00 for unpaid services she agreed to and received. It appears that this report is an attempt to excuse nonpayment and she is refusing to pay these services rendered. We will continue collection efforts. We will continue to provide exceptional and professional wildlife services to our customers. From time to time we will have customers that are not happy with the services they receive. We recognize this and encourage these customers to call us so we have the opportunity to make it right. Unfortunately, some customers take this route and nobody wins.
