"Garrett was very polite and professional. He answered all of our questions. He was very prompt with efficient raccoon removal from our attic and he also sealed it so they cannot return. Thank you Garrett and Alpha Wildlife."

"We live right across from a small park in our subdivision. ? Having critters decide to dig under our brick porch and?take up residence in the crawlspace is not an unusual occurence. ?You can take them away and there will always be more to take their place. This is the third time in five years we have needed Doug's help in removing the last intruders. Doug came out and set two live traps, one in the front of the house and a second in the back. ?The next morning, success! ?An opossum in the front trap and a young male raccoon in the back trap. ?He left traps in place for another five days and there were no other animals captured. The holes were filled with wire and concrete. ?Critters will have to find other places to dig next year!"

"We smelled a skunk outside and the smell would occasionally drift inside. Volunteer Wildlife Control came out and inspected our crawl space, under our screened in porch, and around the back deck.  He didn't see anything but said skunks are known to wander from home to home and that he could come back so he set a trap. He left the trap out back for a few weeks but  nothing ever went into the trap, but the smell wouldn't go away.  The smell was very strong on one side of the deck so Doug came back out and began removing deck boards one by one until he saw a dead skunk.  Doug removed the dead skunk and replaced all of the boards.  Doug is so patient because I called many times complaining of the smell and he came out each time without hesitation.  Doug is persistent, pleasant, friendly, and obviously loves what he does and will do anything to help you and solve the problem before it gets worse! I highly recommend Doug Ladd with Volunteer Wildlife Control!

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Many different types of animals like to build nests in attics. The types may vary depending on your home’s condition and location and you can prevent them by sealing off entry points and eliminating food sources. The most common critters that like to build nests in your attic include:

  • Raccoons

  • Bats

  • Squirrels

  • Mice

  • Rats

You should never use toxic baits or poisons, such as rodenticides designed for mice and rats, to kill or trap possums. Using these toxicants is illegal in many areas and can lead to fines or other penalties. Furthermore, these poisons can cause unnecessary suffering for the animal and pose a significant risk of accidental poisoning to pets or other neighborhood wildlife. Instead of using poisons, it is best to stick with humane methods like live trapping.

Deer are most active around dawn and dusk. Most species of deer are crepuscular, meaning they are often awake during twilight hours. As far as the time of year goes, you can encounter deer in any month, as they don’t hibernate. They are most active during warmer months when food is the most abundant.

Some of the best smells for keeping squirrels away are those that have a spicy or pungent odor. This includes pepper, garlic powder, vinegar, mint, and coffee. Just be careful when handling cayenne or chili pepper. Don’t touch your face to prevent getting some in your eyes, and be sure to keep it away from children and pets.
