See above and if you need any more info feel free to call me at (614) 866-4143 .
Description of Work: I have a 3 year old Great Dane and she discovered a possum in the backyard and of course she went after it. I caught her before she got to it and the possum hid. Due to my concern for rabies infection in the possum, I contacted my old friend Jerry . We have worked on my animal problems with squirrels and Rocky Raccoon (my boys named it) in the past. Jerry came out, setup 2 traps. I checked the traps on morning of 7/25/12 and we caught the biggest possum I have ever seen; Jerry came and got her and reset the traps 7/26/12 checked traps nothing in them so we left them for another day. On Friday 7/27/12 I, called Jerry and informed I had no critters in the traps nd he could come get the traps. To my surprise, Jerry found a small possum in one trap I didn't see so we got our second one and my backyard has been possum free for a week now and my dog is safe. I would recommend Jerry to anyone that has an animal problem, he is not only a great guy, professional, on time and reasonably priced. Trust me you can't go wrong hiring him to take care of your animal problems.. Kerry L. McGraw, Reynoldsburg, Ohio.

Jerry is the best. I had set trap to catch groundhog under my deck. My wife called while I was out of town b/c groundhog had been caught. I called Jerry at 8 am and he was out at my house by 11 and took care of the removal. He has done this for me a number of times. Highly recommend

We found Jerry on Angie's List and contacted him. At that time, there were still baby birds in the nest. He advised us that we need to wait until the baby birds have flown, otherwise the nest removal process could result in a baby bird stuck back in the air vent pipe. As soon as the baby birds were gone, we contacted Jerry again. He came out, clean out the nest, and put a custom made screen that went over the opening but behind the cover flaps. He custom made the screen so that the air vent would look the same as all of the others instead of having a standard vent cover that would make that vent look different than the others on the house.
Description of Work: We had starlings nesting in an air vent. Jerry cleaned out the nest and placed a screen over the opening to prevent future nesting.

He had to drive about 30 min to get to my house. He had to come out about 5 times to catch them all. He did a good job. He was pleasant and kept at it until the job was done. It was the first time I had used him and I would use him again.

His service is excellent. He was honest and to the point. Fixed my bird problem in my wall. He even took extra time to put up a safe trap so that the bird can come out but not go back into the exterior wall of my home. I am an animal lover and it really meant a lot that no animals were harmed. I was very pleased with his service and will definitely use his services in the future and refer to anyone. Thank you.
Description of Work: I thought I had squirrels in my attic. However after a process of elimination he informed me that it was a bird that had pecked its way into the wall of my home from the outside and built a nest. He covered the one hole and put a save trap on the second hole so that the bird can get out if still in and not get back in. He really took his time and explained the process.

I got them from Angie's List. He recommended somebody else to what needed to be done to close up the areas. We never caught anything but he was very fair. It was pretty inexpensive. It cost $50 to $60. He was good because I have had other people who come and check your traps every day. If you call him before 9:00 am and tell him if something is not in the trap then he does not come. If there is nothing in there then he does not charge you and truthfully, that's big. I have used the other pest control companies in the past. They come out every day, charge you an arm and a leg but I am quite capable of overseeing the traps and see if there is anything in them. He was on time.
Description of Work: I used the services of Affordable Animal Control Incorporated six weeks ago for pest control. He figured out where the squirrels were getting in and set some traps that I did not have any in my attic.

Jerry performed the work in a effective and professional manner. He explained the bill and the breakdown of costs. I highly recommend him.
Description of Work: I heard scratching and scrapping in the night coming around my bathroom vent. It was pretty unnerving, especially since I'm a female with an over-active imagination. I called Affordable Animal Control and they were able to come out that very same day. Thank goodness. Turns out it was a bat.

Jerry is a true professional! A family of racoons was tearing up our screened-in porch and destroying new plantings and planters. After one night of seeing the security light come on and off due to raccoons having a fiesta on our deck, I looked up info in Angies' List. I chose Affordable Animal Control for two reasons: the reviews I read on Angie's List and the fact that he was a local business in our area. He came out right away following our first phone call, identified the places where the racoons were going under the deck, and set four traps. The first night we caught 3!! Whenever there was a racoon trapped he came out within an hour or two if not sooner. He advised us on how to prepare the deck to try to prevent this from happening again. The first morning (after calling him at the crack of dawn) he was pleasant and had a sense of humor about my calling so early, something I really appreciated since we had three racoons making awful noises in our yard. He recognized us as Angies' List members and his price for all he did was extremely reasonable. Although I hope we don't need his services again, if we did I would not hesitate to call. I would recommend him to anyone with a need for animal removal - he knows what he is doing!
Description of Work: Jerry set traps to capture a family of racoons that were living under our outside deck. He originally set four traps and then pared it down to two as they seemed to be attracted to one area of the deck. He stayed with it until seven racoons had been trapped and we decided that it seemed we had caught all we were going to and didn't want to attract other animals into the traps.

We have used the gentleman before. We have been pleased with him. I thought he was reasonable. He came out and he had to get up really high. We would have done it ourselves but it was just too high. We have always tried to use the discounts offered by Angie's List. He has always been very quick to respond and to come out. It's just been an easy process working with him. He was very professional.

Idea of varmints in my house scared me - a lot. Called Jerry late afternoon on Tuesday and he came right out. Set trap in backyard after he determined the path that the raccoon was taking. Caught the female Thursday morning; Jerry came and removed her and reset the trap - just to make sure we didn't get some other one. After 2 nights of empty trap, Jerry came out on Saturday afternoon. One of the babies had managed to get out of the attic and was sleeping in a low fork of a nearby tree. Jerry went into the attic and got the other baby. Jerry left the trap and will remove in a couple of days - just to make sure. Jerry is wonderful!!! Very knowledgeable, personable and his quick response was very much appreciated. Would not hesitate to call him again.

I would definitely call AAC again. Jerry is professional , knowledgeable, and humane. He caught two lactating female squirrels on the first day. Thereafter, the babies started showing up in the traps. Jerry actually held the females in a transfer cage and reunited the families even though it took four days to capture all of the babies. He then took them out to some land where he is permitted to release them. And, he charged a very reasonable fee. All in all, I couldn't think of a better person to use.
Description of Work: The owner, Jerry Barker, came over within an hour of my calling him. He quickly identified our problem (a nest of squirrels living in our attic) and set four traps for them. He caught nine squirrels for us over the course of 4 days.

I called him yesterday and he was able to come out today. The worker was incredibly nice and arrived in a timely manner. He went up in the attic & informed me of all the ways bats could get in. He didn't tell me what to do in order to get rid of the bats. He advised me to find a company that would figure out how to fix the way in which the bats were getting in. He only charged me half of the payment, since he just told me that I have bats; I already knew that. If he might've seen the bat, he might've been able to actually something about it, but he didn't really fix my problem. I feel as though he should've let me know up-front what his limitations were with bats.
Description of Work: I wanted him to help me figure out how to get rid of bats and how to fix them from getting into my home.

If you've got "critter problems" Jerry is the man to call. I've used his services twice this summer, when raccoons were rampant (over a dozen) under a backyard deck at my daughter's home, and then a few weeks later when I had some more (four) under a porch at my place. His prices are the best, as long as you're willing to 'help' some and call him in the morning to report if the traps he sets are full or empty. He also provided expert advice on how to screen off entry/exit holes around the deck/porch to keep the raccoons out for good.

Jerry was very prompt in coming out to set out traps and retrieve them. Unfortunately, we didn't block up the hole quickly enough so another raccoon entered our attic less than a week later and Jerry had to make a return trip and set out more traps. In order to save money it was up to me to call in whether the traps were empty or not. After the second raccoon was caught and it was apparent that the opening needed to be properly sealed, Jerry recommended someone we could hire to do the work which we did. Jerry explained a lot to me about raccoons and what I needed to do.

I called Jerry for an estimate but decided not to use him. His charge is $95 service charge - which includes an inspection - and then $59 per animal caught. That had the potential to get very expensive. I also needed to have flashing put on to keep the squirrels out, but I didn't bother asking after hearing the other figures.

He gave an estimated price of $98 to remove it. When I asked (not as an upsell or scare tactic), he explained some possible complications and solutions such as if the vent has been damaged,or the birds have gotten into the attic. He offers same pricing for 7-day service. I decided to try to get the nest out myself, but would certainly consider them first if I need to bring in a professional.

I found a critter control company on angies list. When talking on the phone the guy says he just finishing up a gig in German Village and he can meet me right now. 10 minutes later I pull up and the guy gets out of his truck with a handfull of traps. We get up on the roof and the guy says; "I'm not sure you need me". Yep, I checked three hours ago, but now there is one p***** of squirrel in my trap. He's hauling up the trap and I'm telling him; "I don't care what you do with the squirrel, but if you are going to kill him, please don't tell me" He said; " Don't worry, This squirrel won't come back." As I'm trying to pretend that he's taking the squirrel to the farm in upstate New York to play with the puppies; he's holding up the cage and staring at the squirrel. He said; "The good news is you got the squirrel making a nest. The bad news is, she's nursing." arrrrrrrrrrgh! I went inside and pounded on the walls. He was outside with a 30 foot pool and a loop at the end. I heard him rattling around with the pole then I hear him say "Whooa!" As I look out the window I see a squirrel falling from the roof. He reaches out and catches it in the air in his gloved hand! He's a damned Ninja Squirrel Catcher! He suggested I keep my trap out as they will come out looking for food soon. If I go 5 days with no more squirrels, THEN have the hole closed up.

It worked out well. Initially, we couldn't find the raccoon so we left the abate traps out. He had been gone about an hour when the raccoon showed up in the garage. I called him back, and he came back later that afternoon and took care of the rest of the problem.
