We just moved into an older home and the previous owner warned us that mice come into the house seasonally. Because there's nothing I hate more than mice, I wanted to make an effort to do more than just set traps to control them. The only hope of keeping mice under control in my experience is to try to plug the holes where they're coming in from the start. I've had good luck with past houses by taking this approach. Based on some Angie's List reviews, I wanted a company that tries to eradicate, not just control mice. It seemed like Asheville Wildlife Removal offered an array of services and after talking to them on the phone, they said they would do a thorough inspection of entry points. I was told right up front the fee for that service. After a thorough inspection of our house, Rusty and his colleague Cory fully explained where it looked like mice were coming in and what would be needed to make the house sealed. Neither did they try to scare me and said it didn't appear there is an active mouse population in the house right now. They also took the time to let me know what other creatures might get into the house and how to prevent that. They presented options for handling all the problems. Because this is an older home located in the woods, there are many places for wildlife to enter the house, so it's not such a quick or easy fix. I told them I wanted my house to be a fortress, so I expected it would cost some money. Their quoted price for the work was $2200.00 which seems fair because they're specifically working to plug up even some very small holes all around the house, from top to bottom. Not to mention addressing some construction problems which are leftover from previous owners. I'm guessing I could get a so-called handyman to do the same work perhaps at a lower price, but I don't feel confident it would be done with the expertise of controlling rodents that this company has. So I am scheduling the work to be done by Asheville Wildlife Removal. They've agreed to work out the timing so I can get all of the work done according to my budgetary and calendar requirements. Thank you, Rusty!

I would call them again.

When a critter was banging and flopping around in our chimney, I called Rusty who came out within two hours. Whatever it was had escaped but Rusty found a breach in the screening of the chimney. A few days later, he and his colleague Corey fixed the problem-- and took it upon themselves to repair a secondary breach. They were professional, efficient and friendly.

Rusty Russell was very prompt and knowledgeable. He took time to inform us of our problem and how to be aware of any further problems. I wouldn't think of using anyone else around my area.

Wow! I learned a lot from this experience about wildlife regulations. Rusty Russell was a professional but had time to talk to a child. On his three return visits, he scheduled them after school so the boy could participate. Did I mention that he cleaned up and did not leave a mess? Quote was a little less than originally stated (how often does that happen?). Best $485 I have spent in some time. I have recommended Rusty Russell to my HOA and to several other people in our area.
