"I recently had problems with birds in my eves and feces getting down the siding. This company came in and found the entry points, and sealed them only after removing all the birds and debris left behind. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who needs these services."
"While working under the house yesterday to look for a dead rodent, I came across what appeared to me to look like a human eating anaconda rat snake. I called The Wildlife Guys and every number on Angie's list. Dex heard the fear in my voice and as luck would have it, had someone finishing up a job at that time. Within the hour they were here to save my day! Poor Austin was under the house for what must have been two hours and couldn't find the man eating snake. He removed a dead rat and found a problem area in the duct work WAY in the front of the house. He did not have the odor spray in his truck because he came out emergently and that was more important to me at the time. While I was devastated my beast wasn't caught, I lost faith in humanity and after paying for services, I knew there was no way that they would come back to spray. It's so hard to find honest people any more. At 0830 this morning Dex called and said he wanted to come back out and spray and look for my beast one more time. I was truly touched. He came out and I told him we still had a smell coming through. Him and Austin went back under the house and found another dead rodent in the duct work! They sprayed and even fixed the very small patch in the duct work. My beast has disappeared. I feel certain he'll only come back if the rodents do and I think The Wildlife Guys fixed that problem. I can't tell you how much honesty and integrity mean to me as a homeowner and consumer. It saddens me that it is something that is so rare to come by these days. I feel confident enough about these guys to give my highest ratings to them. I can honestly say that I trust Dex at his word and with any job he could be faced with. It was my pleasure doing business with him and we wish him the best of luck in his business! "
"I called Justin Ludy, the owner of Palmetto Wildlife Extractors, based on a recommendation from the pest company I have used for many years. We made an appointment. During the time they were to be at our house they had an emergency call that required more time and manpower and they were not able to keep our original appointment date. Justin told his Michael, one of his employees, to make another appointment and correct our problem without charging. The work was completed very well. I later called Justin to send him a fee but he refused and made the work a gift since he said they had disrupted my day when the original appointment was not kept. I certainly appreciated his professinalism and concern for his customers. "
"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."
"They made sure we got up and running with hot water again asap. They did great work, were very nice people & charged very reasonably. Would definitely recommend."

You can find a variety of humane bird repellent sprays online and at home improvement stores. However, if you want to try a DIY method that will keep birds away without harming them, mix some water, dish soap, and a few drops of peppermint oil and spray the area you want bird-free. Peppermint oil is a notoriously lovely smell for humans, but birds tend to avoid it.
They can have a deterrent effect on birds to some extent. The reflective surfaces of these objects, such as aluminum foil strips, CDs, or reflective tape, create flashes of light and movement that can startle or confuse birds temporarily. However, some birds can become accustomed to these visual disturbances over time and might adapt their behavior accordingly. For a more sustained solution, combining shiny objects with other deterrent methods shared here is often beneficial for creating a more comprehensive and effective strategy for bird control.
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.
Generally, spring is the best time to hire a pest control service, but it also depends on when you notice the infestation. Insect pest numbers are lower in spring before they hatch, making the extermination and prevention process more manageable as nests and eggs of future pests are eliminated. However, don’t hesitate to hire a pest control specialist when you spot signs of a problem.
If a wild animal enters your yard, prioritize safety for yourself and the animal. Remember to avoid direct contact and always keep a safe distance. Contact local authorities or a wildlife rehabilitation center if the animal is hurt or in distress. Both sources should be able to guide you on how to proceed and send help if needed. Please wait for the animal to leave naturally for non-threatening situations, as many will. To deter future visits, implement measures like securing trash cans, sealing entry points, and removing potential food sources.
