"There are no more raccoons in my attic. The people were courteous. I did not realize how little hours would be spent on the job compared to what I spent. There is a warranty with the cleanup and repair of openings in our house. Weather was a factor in the length of the job which I completely understood and encouraged to play it safe due to snow and very cold temperatures. I did not always know when they were coming until I got a phone call informing me that they would be at my house in x number of minutes. Painting still has to be done so job is not over"

Absolute Wildlife Control is a animal control that offers customers in Independence, KY.

"Chad did a great job! Within about a week after I called him, the whole family of 5 were evicted. He then screwed in the loose board through which they were getting in. After the repair, when he came back the next day to retrieve an empty trap, he heard the skittle of little feet above him in the porch ceiling. He opened the board again, set the trap and sure enough: in a day, there was a young one caught. I had called another company that said they couldn't come out and advised me just to fix the hole without trapping the squirrels out! I am grateful that Chad was responsive and able to get the whole family. I would definitely recommend Chad to anyone needing animal removal service."

"Try other places. After 3 treatments for the bedbug we were good for 2 months. Then the bugs are back. Called back in. The lady answered the phone said they don’t have any warranty for bedbug treatment. She also mentioned if they do, they cannot make any money. Then after she talked to her husband and called me back saying they only have 30 days warranty and there is a charge for any treatment after that. Well, even if you spray by yourself you got like 30 days of grace period. Why bother use their service? They are cheaper but you have no guarantees. Try other places or just spray by yourself."

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.
