Response from Backyard Wildlife Solutions
Hi [Member Name Removed]-thanks for the feedback, however we do not provide service for the issue you inquired about. We are a licensed Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator and only provide service for animals in accordance with PA state law, which does not include domestic animal such as cats or dogs. We often receive calls for both, and are not able to return them all, as we often experience high call volumes for nuisance issues. Feral cat issues do not have easy solutions, but there may be assistance through your local humane league, SPCA, or by contacting your local borough or township office for direction. While we appreciate your feedback and understand the frustration of dealing with feral cats, we would respectfully ask that you remove or adjust your review as this is a service we are simply unable to provide. Thank you.

Len was responsive and called me back timely when I left a message initially. He showed up on time when he said he would and was able to remove the skunk from under our shed immediately which required pulling up some of the plywood flooring. He also used a solution to help mitigate the odor and made suggestions on how to prevent future occurrences and offered to complete these for an additional cost. Responsiveness, timeliness, professionalism and great communication is what we received and this is why we will use Backyard Wildlife Solutions again should the need arise. We will also refer others to them.

Len was very responsive. I called 2 other companies and would of had to wait a week or two for them to even come to my home. Len came out that day, set up traps and confirmed the problem. Caught 2 squirrels and removed several bird/nests. He then fixed all the holes in the roof and sides of the house to keep new animals from entering.

Len was great to work with - he took time to explain every aspect of what he planned to do, the habits of the animals, and he set my expectations properly in terms of cost of the service. Over the course of the initial visit and three return visits, a total of 5 nuisance animals were removed from my property, including a skunk from under my backyard shed - the primary reason for my call to Backyard Wildlife Solutions. Len was always very responsive to my calls/txt msgs regarding status of the traps and followed up quickly. I would not hesitate to call Len if I run into this issue again - the entire experience was very positive.

Recently, I had the misfortune to have squirrels move into my attic. I found Backyard Wildlife Solutions here on Angie's List, and left a message on their website contact page asking for more information. Len called me the next day, answered all my questions, then came to assess the situation. He did a thorough survey of the attic and roof, taking pictures, and then came up with a plan of action to evict the squirrels. He identified their point of entry; they had removed the end cap on the ridge vent which gave them free access to the attic. Len also pointed out several maintenance issues with the roof and chimney- some I was already aware of some I was not. He caught three squirrels in the traps that he set, but since animals work to their own timetable it did take several visits to fully evict the critters. Once they were gone, Len repaired the damage that they had done in the attic (they destroyed a rafter to the point that it was not supporting anything) and took care of all the maintenance issues. He also installed new end caps and screwed them down so that this cannot happen again. Len was very honest, knowledgeable, professional, and provided written estimates for all the recommended work. He was a pleasure to work with and I would not hesitate to hire him again should the need arise. Thank you Len for such excellent customer service!

I called for an on-going skunk spraying issue at my home. My call was promptly returned and a site visit was set up. Len showed up on time, was polite, professional, and knowledgeable. He immediately set the traps, showed me how to release them (if needed to for an errant animal like a bird). Though the skunks were never trapped (which he felt they were not living on the property) , two ground hogs were. He immediately took care of the animal removal when I notified him (including on a Sunday). Over a several week course, Len would follow-up directly with me to see how things were going, move the traps as needed, etc. If I discovered something or had questions, I would text this info to him and he would adjust his strategy of trap placement (including ground hog siting, holes where skunks had been digging for grubs, etc.). All my questions and texts were always responded to in short time and with detailed explanations . In summary, Len was a pleasure to work with and displayed nothing but professionalism and I felt he was well informed and knowledgeable about his approach to addressing my skunk issue. I would certainly recommend his services for critter control.

I called the vendor and left a voicemail message describing the problem I was expereincing with squirrels. I believed the squirrels had built a nest in my third floor dormer. Mr. Lambert promptly returned my call and we agreed on an appointment for the following day. He showed up at the agreed upon time, ready and eager to assess my "squirrel problem." After evaluating the terrain and home layout, we discussed price and payment options. We agreed that he would come back on a mutually agreed upon date and time to lay the traps at the place(s) where I had observed the squirrels. He showed up two days later, as agreed, and placed the baited traps at strategic locations. He was very easy to work with. So far, we have trapped two squirrels, with possibly one more to go. I am very happy with the services delivered by Backyard Wildlife Solutions.
