This was not a complex situation to secure the vent which I was not using to keep the birds from entering!!

After removing the animal and sanitizing, they went around the house and pointed out areas where animals could gain access underneath the house. They indicated that they do offer a house sealing procedure if I was interested, but there was no pressure or pushing on their part to have them do this. They even suggested a way that I could seal up the house myself if I was inclined. My wife had called several services in our area that do this work and this one was the cheapest. The others were not only more expensive, but also indicated they charged extra for the sanitation process. We were very satisfied with the results. With the Angie's LIst 10% discount coupon, the overall cost was $135. We would certainly use them again if we have anymore problems.

We started out with a cocker who lived to the ripe old age of 14. Our second dog was a German Shepherd mix. She had terrible allergies and Dr. Rutledge worked diligently to find out what her triggers were and how to help her live a good life. Dog #2 lived to be 13. Dog #3 (currently with us) was a rescue dog with lots of trust issues. Dr. Rutledge and his staff have won her over with their kindness. We trust and respect Dr. Rutledge's professional judgment and would not go anywhere else. He and his staff sincerely care about the animals they treat and it shows. He's extremely thorough in his care and takes the time to speak to the pet owner to ensure they understand treatment options. We moved to Sugar Land 20 years ago and continued to take our animals back to him for treatment. We're about to move to The Heights now and will continue to bring our dog to him. His prices are very reasonable.

"Do not sign a contract with this company. If you sell or rent your house and have to cancel, they will charge a $200 fee for cancellation of each contracted service. I was facing a $400 fee, then was allowed to cancel one contract "if I finished the 4 services left this season" of my second contract. I finished the season in November, and now they are showing up at my house in March to treat...because the end of the "annual contract" is May. They are still trying to charge me a $400 cancellation fee, because "if I cancel the second service, I will be charged both service cancellation fees" even though I completed the "deal" they claimed to give me in August, saying I had 4 more monthly services that ended in November."

"Hiram and his company are top notch! We originally found him 5 years ago when we moved into a new house that had rats in the attic. He is super honest and easy to work with, and quickly solved our rodent issues and sealed up all the entry points for reasonable cost. We had the attic re-insulated afterwards and haven't had any issues since. We called him back a couple years later to install two fireplace log kits and repair some parts of a broken outdoor fireplace. Today he came out to ease my mind about animal noises I heard that I thought were coming from inside the attic (but apparently were on the roof). He was super honest that he didn't see a problem and didn't pressure me into any services. Standup guy and company - I highly recommend."

DIY animal removal is rarely a good idea and is not advised for many reasons. First, these types of animals can carry diseases and, therefore, pose a health risk to you, your family, and your pets if mishandled. Second, depending on your city or municipality, it may be illegal to remove or handle wildlife yourself.
Sealing your home against these animals yourself is also a bad idea. Trapping an animal under your house will cause odor and insect problems when it passes away.
Pest control is not the same as animal removal. Pest control specialists treat for insects and bugs, often by using chemicals. Animal removal specialists try to avoid chemicals if possible and instead work to trap and move the animal that's causing problems.
Since each expert has their own removal methods, it's best to contact a pest control professional for insects and bugs and an animal control specialist for other animals.
Animal removal specialists specialize in removing critters and wildlife from in and around your home. These include:
Bats
Birds
Groundhogs
Moles and voles
Opossums
Mice and rats
Raccoons
Skunks
Squirrels
The specialist's method to remove these critters will depend on the animal. For example, groundhogs will be live-trapped and relocated, whereas, for birds, the expert will remove and discard the inactive nest and sanitize the area.
You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.
Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.
Professional animal removal costs between $200 and $600 for average homeowners. However, depending on the type and number of critters removed, this cost could range from $85 to $1,400.
This cost does not include the cost of home damage caused by the animal, which could be as low as $300 for minor drywall repair or as much as $15,000 for crawl space cleaning and restoration.
