"They did get rid of the squirrels but I think it would have been better/cheaper if they had used an exclusion (one way) cage and then fix the hole instead of trapping squirrels that were running across the roof. Course they were paid per squirrel so it added up fast. And the process took a couple extra weeks of squirrels being in the attic chewing."

"You're gonna like it here!!" is more than our motto - It's a guarantee.

"They will sell you a car in a new york minute but if you find a problem GOOD LUCK! I found some paint issues on my new Prius and have e-mailed the sales manager and general sales manager and not gotten any response. Also e-mailed internet sales manager (twice) and both times his response was "I'll talk to my boss" but guess what....still waiting for a response. All I want is for them to make things right, touch up the scratches and chipped paint.?"

"Al was incredible with his work completed in my house! Prior to Al arriving and using his product, my new home was unlivable with how bad the smoke smells were in the house. Upon arriving, Al was extremely informative and detailed with the work that he was completing to help with the house smells. Throughout the entire cleaning process, he was very professional and respectful to my home and space, all while providing appropriate recommendations to assist with eliminating smoke and pet odors. Following completion, the interior of the house was livable and did not smell. I would highly recommend EIEIODORS for your odor removable."

We are Minute Men Professional Moving LLC. When it comes to reliability and the ability to deliver at an affordable price, Minute Men Movers should be your first choice. We are a small local business with the reputation for dependability and superior quality work at an affordable price. All of our movers are professionals with at least 5 years experience in the field, and have all passed background checks for your security. We are open to moves of all sizes, So if you have a move and you are looking for professional movers give us a call for a quote. Currently we offer 2 professional movers for only $69 per hour, and that includes the truck (16ft and 24ft truck available). If you have a small, medium, or large move, please call for appropriate quote.

"I was very disappointed with this company overall. From the beginning, customer service skills over the phone were just adequate. Communication regarding the moving reservation was not organized or timely and I often had to email or call Craig for information that an excellent company would've automatically sent me as part of their process including a confirmation email of the appointment and price quote, as well as timely responses regarding appointment time and crew arrival. In the end, I was given a two hour window of when the crew would arrive, catering to their schedule. The crew ended up arriving 20 minutes after the window had ended, leaving me waiting for help .Once they arrived, they did not introduce themselves and had negative attitudes; I did not even realize the man I had been speaking with on the phone (Craig) was one of the men moving me. Their moving dolly was of poor quality, thus making it difficult for them to handle some of my large furniture. The female worker ended up losing control of one piece and it fell to the ground and broke into pieces. My father witnessed this, I did not and the worker directly lied to me, claiming the piece had broken in the truck during transit, blaming the loss on someone else. The two workers did not take extra care with how they loaded some of my things into the storage unit; a few times we had to suggest they try something else because how they were trying to pack things would cause potential damage. In the end, they did complete the job, but not with quality service. Poor and unprofessional communication, lack of honesty and integrity, and lack of service quality would prevent me from hiring this company again."

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.
