I was super panicked because it sounded like there was a massive animal in my chimney. Southern Wildlife came out the same day. Super nice dude got the squirrel out alive without incident and fixed my chimney cap so no more visitors. Reasonable price. I recommend!!

We could not have asked for a more prompt and professional company. Joshua and company came the day after I called, examined the house very thoroughly and quickly determined the squirrel entry point. They put in traps for our intruding squirrel, and checked on them daily. Within two days we had trapped the squirrel, which was relocated. Joshua then quickly patched the hole in the exterior of the house. I would hire Southern Wildlife again with no reservations.

Josh was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the process to safely remove the bats. He even seaed the siding where they were getting in from. He was very helpful and in fact didn’t collect the money until he came back a few days later to make sure the bats were gone. His price was fair and reasonable and I would certainly hire him again. I strongly recommend if you’re in need of any wildlife removal, you need to hire Josh from Southern Wildlife.

Bats were found in the vents of our attic and needed to be removed, along with the guano. After an expensive quote from the exterminator, Alex dropped by to access the situation. He arrived on time, explained the issue, how it was to be resolved and gave us an instant quote far below our exterminator. They arrived on the day of the removal on time, did a very neat job applying screening to 3 attic vents and removed all guano. Quick and hassle free.

Alex did a great job to screen all of the entry points while providing the bats a one-way tube out of the house. He also cleaned up all of the bat droppings inside the attic. Great job!

Austin was great! We were alarmed to find out that we had bats in our gable vents, but Austin did a great job putting our minds at ease, coaching us through the process and ultimately getting rid of them. They were very professional and responded very quickly.

Traps were baited & set. the squirrels apparently left before the traps were set. Southern Wildlife came back every day for 4 days to verify that the squirrels were gone. The traps were removed & the access hole in the eaves was closed up. $85 service call, $89 trap set fee, $55 to repair hole. 10% Angie's List discount on service call.

I cannot say enough good things about this team and Alex's leadership. They were attentive, very nice, careful of the property, respectful, answered questions as needed and enjoyed engaging in wildlife discussions. The whole issues for both squirrels and bats were resolved within a week's time. I actually missed their daily visits to check on things after the job was completed which is a big compliment to them. And pricing was very fair and Alex went out of his way to make sure he gave me all appropriate discounts that he had going at the time.
Description of Work: Started with squirrel problems and then asked them to check on previous bat issues which we found we still had. Had squirrel cover put on one attic fan and covered louvres on attic with associated animal removal. Squirrels were trapped and bats had a one way exit from louvres.

Alex was fantastic! He came out immediately and quickly removed the snake (he said was a large non-poisonous yellow-bellied water snake). He walked the perimeter of our property and went into the crawl space under the house - actually finding a 2nd smaller black rat snake. Alex pointed out different snake friendly areas around our home and how to help prevent a snake from making a future home. He even filled some gaps in our crawl space by the HVAC unit to keep snakes and critters out from under the house. He safely removed both snakes and relocated them to a safer more snake friendly place to live. We are getting a quote for crawlspace restoration and will keep his company on speed dial in case we get any more critters!

He quickly pulled out the large yellow bellied water snake and will relocate him to a new and safe home. Alex then walked the fence line in the backyard, the house perimeter, and checked the crawl space. He actually found a 2nd, smaller, black rat snake and was able to remove/relocate him as well. He used foam spray in a few gaps by the HVAC unit and crawlspace to help prevent snakes and other animals from making a future home. We discussed the crawl space condition and will be getting a quote for crawlspace cleaning/restoration as well!

These guys were professional, courteous, and wonderful to have on the job! A mother squirrel and 3 juveniles were removed over a 3-day period, then screens were installed over holes the squirrels had eaten in fascia boards. I plan to repair the boards as part of another project. They also set up one-way exits for bats that I feared were living in my attic. Screens were installed over 3 attic vents after the bats were gone. I was lucky, in that the bats were living around the horizontal decorative wood of one vent, but had not torn through the inside screen. I also had an existing bat house relocated, that had been on a high post that blew down during high winds in February. They mounted it nice and high on a tree. The squirrel removal charges included a "per squirrel" charge. With 4 squirrels, this cost was about the same as a fixed cost quote I had received from another company.

Josh was highly professional and responsive to our request for service. He visibly inspected every inch and corner of the crawlspace and discovered a small hole in one of the vent screens. He then inspected the area under our deck near the entry point, and finally located the snake lying between the upper deck floor joists. He was able to capture the reptile and return him safely to his new environment, about 10 miles from here. I had a great experience with this company, and would definitely use them again.

I can't praise these guys enough! Found extensive bird poop all over my air conditioner and determined something must be hiding out in the upstairs bathroom vent. Called Southern Wildlife and spoke with owner Alex Freeman. He knew right away that the problem was probably European Starlings who are crevice nesters, gave me a rundown of costs and said he could have somebody out to my house the next day. I had called 3 other services and left messages but no one even bothered to call back and am I glad that they didn't. Josh arrived promptly the next day, crawled up into the attic to confirm that there was a nest in the duct, walked around the house to check all the other vents and told me what I should cover and what didn't need to be done and why. I was ready to cover them all. He got to work and had to go up to the attic several times and never complained - you have to be a gymnast to get up there since the builder said he couldn't put stairs due to some code, but he just went about his work and finished the whole job in an hour. He removed the nest, cleaned the gunk out of the vent and then put vent covers on four vents. Problem solved! I highly recommend this company if you have any problems with wildlife moving into your house!

Alex was great . This is not something you want to spend money on but I had a bat flying around my living room! His price was half the cost of another wildlife group in the area and he showed me everything he did. he came back and showed me everything they did and even pointed out I was missing a chimney cap and put one in for free.

Alex scheduled a visit very quickly and showed up on time. He is very knowledgeable about the nesting habits of bats. He also explained up-front that wildlife protection law sets dates when the bats can and cannot be removed, during their nesting season. It meant that I had to wait a couple of months, but at least I had a good explanation of why. He also installed screens over my gable vents to keep the bats from messing up the walkways with guano. Everything looks great and works perfectly.
Description of Work: Found where bats had nested in one dormer of our house, and other bats were roosting in the gable vents.

Alex Freeman, owner, was immediately responsive. Josh appeared the same day and spent close to two hours inspecting and taking all the action he could to prevent a re-appearance of our good but not favorite reptiles. I don't enjoy them and they terrify my wife. Josh won our praises and on a very hot day he accepted the only reward of two diet Pepsi's. They promise 24/7 service and I believe them.

Everything went great! I was worried that the screening would stand out as this was done on the front of our house but it is barely noticeable. He was very helpful and checked the whole roof and chimney to make sure there were no openings that other animals could get into.

I contacted Southern Wildlife and Land Management because we have activity in our attic at night and had attempted to trap whatever was up there with no success. We had learned that it was squirrels and a regular exterminator does not deal with squirrels, you have to have licensed wildlife person come out to remove. I called SWLM and he called me back promptly and made an appointment to come out to my house to check out the situation. He arrived promptly and did an inspection of the attic and the exterior of the house. I went into the attic with him and was shown where they were nesting, etc. I learned that it was flying squirrels because of there nocturnal activity. He then walked me around the exterior of the house and showed entry points of where they were getting in. He then placed traps at those entry points. If squirrels were caught they would be removed and relocated in the country. Traps were set for several days and no squirrels were caught. The entry points were blocked up, so they could not get in. We have not seen any signs of activity since.
