Animal removal specialists in Huntington Beach
Since 1980, we have been protecting homes and investments from unwanted pest problems across Southern California. That means 41 years of experience! We service Orange, San Diego, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. Believe it or not, being an entrepreneur for Andy started at a very early age. Andy first became an entrepreneur at the tender age of 8 years old when he ran his own egg route in his neighborhood. Interestingly enough, his egg route was so successful that sometimes his mother borrowed money from Andy to pay the rent. During Andy's adolescent years, he met his wife Nancy in the 3rd grade and finally started dating her sophomore year of high school. Andy played football and basketball, while Nancy was head cheerleader. The high school sweethearts stayed together into college as Andy received a football scholarship from Stanford University. After graduation, Andy and Nancy headed back down to beautiful Southern California to start their own pest and termite control company, Bug Squad and POW! Exterminating, Inc. The company was established in 1980 and still going strong just like their marriage. That is what Bug Squad and POW! Exterminating is all about. We are a family operated company and your home is where our heart is.

"I am writing to share my deeply frustrating and disappointing experience with Best Pest Wildlife Control, a service that promised much but delivered nothing but incompetence and negligence. My encounter with this company has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel compelled to warn others about the appalling service they provide. Firstly, the salesperson who initially visited my property to assess the services I required was shockingly unprofessional. Despite assuring me of a comprehensive attic sanitization treatment, the reality was far from what was promised. I was instructed to vacate my home for two hours during the treatment, only to find out later that the solution provided was grossly inadequate. The service representative who followed brought a small bottle of solution, clearly insufficient to cover the entire attic, and did not even bother to wear a mask during application. The minimal amount of solution used was so ineffective that there was no discernible difference in the house's odor afterward. It was a complete waste of time and money. Furthermore, the sales rep made lofty promises about installing a one-way exit door to prevent roof rats from re-entering my home. However, the service rep who arrived the next day seemed completely oblivious to this commitment. Instead of a professional solution, I was presented with a makeshift contraption—a flimsy tube crudely fashioned out of galvanized steel—hastily shoved into the dryer exhaust port on the roof. It was painfully evident that this makeshift device was never intended to be effective, leaving me feeling utterly duped and frustrated. Moreover, despite promises of installing a stronger alternative to galvanized steel mesh, the service rep simply rearranged our existing mesh, leaving larger openings than before and failing to reassemble some of the roof caps properly. To add insult to injury, I even discovered one of our mesh caps abandoned on the roof, as if forgotten after their shoddy service. Essentially, their pest control method offered nothing new or effective beyond what we had already implemented. To make matters worse, the service rep left a dead mouse on my dryer and neglected to remove it, adding insult to injury and highlighting their utter lack of professionalism and attention to detail. The final straw was the exorbitant cost of $1,476 for a service that amounted to little more than making holes in my roof, sprinkling a bit of air freshener in the attic, and leaving behind a dead rodent. It felt like a blatant scam, preying on unsuspecting customers like myself, especially the elderly. In conclusion, I cannot in good conscience recommend Best Pest Wildlife Control to anyone. Their deceptive sales tactics, shoddy workmanship, and abysmal customer service make them a company to avoid at all costs."

Animal removal services FAQs
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.
