"I called Rogers wildlife because I had a raccoon the found it’s way into my ceiling in between my first floor and basement. They came over and told me that they couldn’t find where it was getting in. They thought it was just field mice. I told them that it couldn’t be because the sound was to big and I heard raccoon noises. Two weeks later I called them again when the raccoon ate a hole in my basement ceiling. They looked at it and said again there’s no way that a raccoon would get in there to put out mouse bait. So I did. NO NO NO don’t do that! The raccoon then put its foot through my ceiling… I saw it, so I called again and they were to busy to help me they didn’t believe it was a raccoon foot, maybe a mouse, maybe a opossum. They gave me a number to call. I called that person and he wouldn’t help me either. So I set my own trap and caught a raccoon. See the picture Rogers it’s a raccoon not a field mouse not a opossum not a squirrel. *edit: photo won’t upload. It’s a raccoon, if you STILL don’t believe me I’ll email it to you… I called Rogers again to come pick him up like they promised me they would if I caught one. They were to busy. Fast forward two days… an awful smell started happening… I called rogers they said that it was probably just a mouse and it will go away… I pleaded them for their help but guess what they were to busy. Long story short a full size raccoon got stuck in the space and died. No Rogers it wasn’t a female I caught and no Rogers it wasn’t babies. No the smell just didn’t go away. You told me if I put out poison that I wouldn’t have flies and maggots and smell. I had hundreds of flies and thousands of maggots raining down from my ceiling. I had to call a professional cleaning company… the company found 5 raccoon latrines the raccoons have made because months had gone by since I first called to get help. The raccoons chewed into my ducts, ruined drywall, etc … they have done over 15k dollars of damage to my dwelling, thousands I had to pay for the professional cleaners and loss of the mattresses, couch, chairs and everything else that can’t go in the washer. By the way most insurances do not cover animal damage. Call your insurance … you’ll find out I’m right. If Rogers would’ve listened to me when I first called months before my house wouldn’t be a biohazard, and destroyed. It’s been one of the worst experiences in my life because 4 different men who were their employees didn’t listen or believe me that this was happening. Roger’s Wildlife didn’t believe a single mother of a 22 month old, and because of that this mom is going through her worst nightmare and who will not be able to financially recover for a decade. Also this mom has to stay in a hotel for weeks until it’s safe for her kid to go home. The baby keeps asking for “home”. “No baby, I’m so sorry, we don’t have a home right now. No baby you can’t have wee bear. No sweetheart we can’t get your blanket. I don’t know when baby”. It’s just heartbreaking Edit:In response to the inaccurate response to my review Review Text: I cut a hole in my ceiling so that you could come to catch it. You told me that I had baby raccoons and I told you I gave the raccoon a shower and he showed me his gender. I asked you to look on my roof again and you denied me my request because yes it was hot. You continued to not believe in what I was saying and told me to put poison out. If I was able to catch one raccoon than why weren’t you able to help me? If you helped me earlier than the raccoon wouldn’t have gotten stuck. If you serviced my request in the first place I wouldn’t have had so much damage to my air ducts. The issue is you would not listen nor did you believe me. You also stated that you would come and look at the my home and apologize for ignoring me. You also stated to me that other wildlife companies in the area were sub par and preceded to tell me to trust you. I paid you for the work. As for the entry. It was in my roof and I’ll be more than happy to get you the photo where you obviously missed. So don’t blame it on me being in a condo. Pass the buck all you want your company gave me poor service and I’m paying dearly for it."

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.
