"As cute as raccoons are, we have learned how extremely destructive to homes they can be. We had hired two other companies to remove raccoons from our attic. Both were unsuccessful. Thankfully, we discovered Monumental Pest Control! The teamâ  s knowledge, trustworthiness, reliability, reasonable pricing, focus on outstanding customer service and the ability to get the job done was/is outstanding. They truly care about meeting and solving the customerâ  s needs and issues. An easy Five Stars!"

"On the two visits your team was prompt, courteous and informative. Original call was for snake removal (which turned out to be a salamander). Termites were discovered. Termite treatment was executed professionally and quickly. Thank you!"

"The company was incredibly responsive: a field representative came out the day of our request; and, the next day a very helpful and careful technician took care of the problem. He removed the two birds in the dryer vent pipe, kept them alive and watched them fly away! He cleaned out the nesting material, put an animal-preventative cover on the outside vent and sprayed a mite-control compound in the vent piping. All in all, a great experience with a company we strongly recommend."

"The Century technician removed most of the nest on the first try. It was difficult to determine whether all of the wasps were gone at that time. Several days later, it was clear the remaining wasps were starting to rebuild. I called Century and they dispatched the technician who treated the previously unreachable area eliminating the problem. I was extremely pleased that Century was willing to do whatever it took to solve my problem. I found them to be courteous, professional, and a much better value than our previous pest treatment service. I highly recommend them."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Foxes are primarily nocturnal, meaning you’re less likely to see one strutting onto your lawn in the middle of the day. However, daytime activity is more common if you have a female with her cubs on your property during the spring and summer. And you can see adaptable urban foxes at any time when regular food is available.

You’ll want to call a licensed and insured wildlife removal company that offers:

  • Full property inspection—indoor and outdoor

  • Proper animal identification

  • Written management plan with follow-up visits included

  • Humane removal techniques

  • Preventative exclusion measures

If it’s an emergency and you can’t wait, you’ll need to contact an emergency animal control company near you.

Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting. 

Anecdotal evidence suggests coffee grounds can keep chipmunks away. Sprinkle them throughout your garden, yard, and plants to help deter them. As an added bonus, coffee grounds can help keep the slugs away, and they’re great for acid-loving plants such as hydrangeas, azaleas, and rhododendrons.

While doggie doors are convenient for pet owners, they do offer a few drawbacks. For instance, they’re small enough that unwanted critters could come into the house, such as raccoons, snakes, rats, and insects.

They’re also large enough that small children can escape through them, which can be a serious concern to parents of young children.

Finally, doggie doors can make it difficult to regulate your home’s temperature because they constantly let in hot or cold outside air.
