Your mouse problem is our mouse problem! We've been in business for over 25 years, specializing in a multi-step process that we developed and perfected to get you mice-free. Traps and sprays just don't work and become costly over time. Our treatment eliminates the mice, then we seal the entry points to mouse-proof the home, and finally we disinfect to sanitize against bacteria and disease. We give a 1 Year 100% Guarantee against mice in your home, and offer optional clean-up services. Give Mice Mob a call today! Serving the NW Chicogoland area.

"It is too soon to comment on whether they solved my mice problem. However I was greatly disappointed with the discrepancy in the information given to me by the various departments. 1. Cost: a) The owner with whom I spoke to on the phone said that the price for the full job for a townhouse is between $700-$1100. b) The inspector (who took a quick look for 5 minutes) charged $1380. He put pressure to pay half of the price on the spot. 2. Guarantee: a) The owner with whom I spoke to on the phone said that they guarantee a mice free home for the year. I clearly stated that we are a townhouse and he said that they can still do it since we are the end townhouse. b) The inspector said that he cannot give me a guarantee since we are a townhouse. Yet he said he is confident mice will not get in from the neighbors side because there is a fire-wall between the homes. He assured me that if he wasn’t sure they could fix my issue, they wouldn’t take the job. c) The foreman who came to do the repairs said that mice absolutely can get through the firewall by chewing through it or through any tine hole near pipes etc. He added that they wouldn’t be able to give a guarantee even if we weren’t a townhouse, because he sees signs of rats on our property. In summary – at each stage, the guarantee fell lower and lower. At this point, I paid a fortune and have zero guarantee that they fixed the issue."

Willie’s Honey Company is a small business run by my Wife Rachel and I (Wil) . We are located around Northern Illinois in the Lake/Mchenry counties area. We strive to provide high quality hive products, bees and learning opportunities at an affordable price. I started beekeeping when I was 13 by finding a book at the Library and have been hooked ever since. I went on and got a degree in environmental ecology and wetland ecosystems. In addition I am currently serving as the vice president of the Lake County Beekeepers Association. I believe that all agricultural practices should leave the land and the animals better than it started out. Following this train of thought we don't use any chemical treatments on our hives and select stock from winter hardy and disease resistant survivor stock. Many of our hives and components are built from dumpster dived lumber, paint, and nails. Bees are an important part of the ecosystem and all of our lives. All swarm and structure removal of honeybees we do live capture and re-home to our apiaries. Many of these feral bees become an important part in our program to breed hardy bees for our area.

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.
