"I normally do not do much reviews but I had to this time. I live 800+ miles away from my parents. My parents are elderly. My father has spent most of the last 9 months in and out of the hospital and somewhere along the way brought bed bugs home. This was a disaster! They were literally eating my parents alive and I'm 800 miles away! I called many people but Tim was different than all of them. It has been a very very long road in getting the bugs cleared. My parents' home is very cluttered which made this process extremely more difficult to rid the infested house of these horrific bugs. Tim stuck through until the end. He kept me in the loop without me hunting him down. He would check on my sweet mom on weekends. He was in the middle of some large projects and totally stressed out and still found away to go to my parents when they needed him or they were ready for another treatment. Literally, no other company would have given my parents the time and care Tim did; no one. This is your guy. He's knowledgeable and he actually cares. It is of the Lord that He connected us with Tim. Being 800+ miles away was hard enough but my parents were in good hands with Tim the entire time. Hands down our only recommendation!"

JacopilleBornheimer LLC is a full service company that specializes in total solutions for your property to be vermin free, mold free, and clean. We do the job from start to finish so that you don't need multiple companies to get rid of whatever is hampering a peaceful, quiet, disease free environment for you and your home or business. We do everything from large warehouses to lake cottages.

"The good news is that we paid a boatload of money to Jacopille Bornheimer to install 2 one way bat exits and seal up the house and they completed the job quickly. However, it’s been a year and I can’t get them to return and remove the remaining 1 way exit and seal the hole (the other exit was addressed when I replaced the siding on my chimney). It’s too bad, as I was looking for a vendor to use on an as-needed basis for a couple of additional properties."

Established in 1993. We service residential and commercial accounts in all aspects of pest control. We specialize in K-9 bed bug detection and treatments at a fair and reasonable price.

"We have been a customer for over ten years. Noticed bees in our home and called to get a date of annual spray, after calling in three times, finally got to speak with someone and was told they were behind 2-3weeks. After the first spray, which was an "emergency appt" they tried to reschedule, still bees in our home, came back and sprayed a second time. We still have very active wasps getting in somewhere and after days of calling, they will not respond to any of the messages we have left."

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.
