Mark was knowledgeable, courteous and skilled. He was able to come the same day we called, did the job quickly, and made sure to warn about the dangers of the situation.
Description of Work: Small, injured raccoon crawled under our deck and was unable to leave. Mark quickly removed the raccoon and took him away in a cage to be euthanized and buried.

Great he did what he said he would do. No more racoons.
Description of Work: We had a racoon that had torn up the roof on our front porch and was living in the unfinished part of our attic. Andy came put put out a trap but also checked our entire roof for areas where racoon and other critters could get in. He found a number of areas and sealed them. The racoon was alittle harder. We have a lot of squirrel s in the neighborhood and after the first night there was a squirrel in the trap he came and got it out and by that afternoon there was another squirrel in the trap. He came and got that one. It took a few days but finally the racoon took the bate. He put out another trap to make sure there were no other racoon living there. No more... he came back and did a odor neutrilizer to clean up the area. He did a great job and was very friendly

Mr. Ture's work has held up quite well. We have had no more trouble, thanks to the work he did.
Description of Work: This is the company I chose from the two companies OPC recommended to me when it became clear that trapping services would be needed because a squirrel was in the walls of my house. |As much as I liked OPC, they did me a huge favor by recommending Mark True of ACT. Mr. True did exactly what he said he would do, exactly when he said he would do it, for exactly the price he said it would be. |I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mr. True, of ACT Wildlife Management. |I hope I do not need his services again, but if I do, I would not hesitate to call Mr. True. I felt he was excellent.

Perfect. They did the job in one day. Caught the mole and resolved my problem in less than 24 hours. It does not get any better than that!
Description of Work: I noticed mounds of fresh dirt in my large front yard. I knew I had a mole, vole or gopher. I called these folks based on a recommendation. They came the same day and set a trap underground. They came back the next morning and had caught it. It was that simple. They sent a bill and I paid it. They are miracle workers. Very prompt, through and professional. They know their business!

He came out and checked for entry points and put up an exclusion trap where my gutters were. Closed the hole on the other side of home said i a nice size gap between roof and gutters making a draft. Said once they smell the draft they chew holes to get in. Said I hear anything in attic or guttters give the squirrels time and they will come out on their own. Took about a little over one week and caught 4 squirrels. He said to call anytime and will remove the squirrels caught. I had 3 in one trap at one point. Very professional and honest. I would reccommend him. He also stated the trim that I recently had done by Tree-Tech was great, they did a good job compared to many he has seen.
Description of Work: I called him over Critter Control since his company isn't the big wig companies. Mark ture is a 1-man crew and I told him i have a problem with squirrels. I wasn't sure how many but I have a nice size acorn tree and the home was vacant before I moved in. Have squirrels in my gutters and possibly attic.

This guy is the mole-whisperer. He catches the mole(s) while he is there;i.e., immediately. Seems to know right where to look. Has 30 day coverage. Moles seem to know how long to stay in neighbors yard until 40 + days then re-invade.

Mark was a pleasure to deal with. A gentleman all the way. He discussed the way ahead very directly and the options with up front pricing. After he returned to complete the job (needed to wait a few days for the squirrels to exit the building) he brought the same price sheet out and we went over it to ensure it was what we had signed up for. Absolutely will recommend ACT to anyone in Jefferson County that needs critters removed.

Mark showed up the same day we called, put out traps and caught the skunks over a 2-3 day period. He told us he released them into a and quot;city approvedand quot; release area and let mother nature figure the rest out (made my wife happy.) He even gave my neighbors a free bat-in-the-chimney evaluation while he was at our house. Very pleased with his services and will use him again if need be.
Description of Work: Mark showed up and caught 5 baby skunks, and filled up the hole under our front porch with concrete to prevent critters from living there.

He killed my cat. My friendly pet cat (with collar and tags with my address and phone number on it) was trapped by Mark True of Animal Control Tactics (ACT) in a neighbor's back yard while he was attempting to catch possums. I called him and validated that it was my cat. He says it was "lost from his truck" miles from my house at the Shelbyville Road Plaza. He said he had no obligation to look at the tag or call me because the cat should have been on a leash. He was was incredibly insensitive and answered my shock and dismay at his action with an invitation for me to "come over and show him how much of a man I am". After this conversation, I fully believe he enjoys killing animals and especially pets. His website talks about how he is a Christian but says "Jesus didn't say anything about loving animals" and indicates that he does not kill defenseless animals, but that he "aborts them" because the US government has permitted abortion of babies since 1973. He is crazy and needs to be shut down. Please please do NOT give him any business.

ACT was the only company that was willing to come on short notice. Called around and other companies were only willing to set a trap and hope - he came out within the hour after giving the description of its behavior and caught it in 5 minutes. I was somewhat surprised at the cost; however, a potentially dangerous animal was removed quickly and professionally which is more than I would be willing to do on my own.
Description of Work: Had an obviously sick raccoon having seizures/convulsions in my very residential front yard and thought it best to remove ASAP - very likely distempered or worse rabid.

I could hear birds somewhere in my home. When Act Management came, he was able to tell birds were entering in a bathroom vent. He enclosed the vent with wire. He did such a good job it is not noticeable at all from the drive. I'm so glad I called before the birds built a nest inside my home in that vent. He was very polite. I recommend this company. It was a small job but he didn't mind.

Went very well. Man came out the day I called about the squirrel problem. Gave me an estimate of possible charges over the phone, and then again once he came to the house. Set up a squirrel trap and kept in touch with me during the week. No squirrel was caught. It must have vacated to look for food right before the man came, and then couldn't get back into the gutter, roof area. So after a week, the trap was removed, the entrance area sealed, and so far, no more problems. Appreciated the quick response.
Description of Work: HIred for possible squirrel removal. No squirrel caught in the trap that was set up, but the entrance area was repaired such that the squirrel would not be able to gain entry, and no problems since the repair.
