Description of Work: Removed a skunk from my property. Ark was the only company that mentioned making sure the skunk was not a lactating female. If it was and it was removed, the babies would die under my steps and it would have been a much bigger problem. They arrived the same day & even gave me advice over the phone if I wanted to try to remove it myself. Upon leaving, they instructed me on some measures to take to avoid skunks under my porch in the future. I was very thankful.

Description of Work: I contacted Ark Trapping because we had squirrels nesting in our balcony deck. The rodents had built a large nest and were chewing holes in our deck material as well as neighbors siding. He came out right away, explained his trapping process, set open traps and explained he would check each day for activity. After confirmation of activity, he would set live traps. Then the rains came. Although he never was able to catch any squirrels (we think rain made them move on), he came out even in downpours, climbed onto our balcony to check area. After several days of heavy rain, I came home to find him scraping out nesting material from between layers of our balcony. Then, he sealed area with heavy duty material to prevent future nesting. We live on street with lots of trees and of course see squirrels, but haven't noticed any interest in our property since. Thanks Ark Trapping!

Description of Work: Cleared out beginnings of bird nest being built in my kitchen hood vent! He vacuumed it out and checked his work with a mirror then placed a mesh on the outside opening so the birds don't come back. No birds found when he cleared out the nest makings. He worked in the pouring rain to get the job done.

Description of Work: He was VERY thorough not only checking the attic but basement as well. Went over every aspect of what he found and best way to handle the issues. Made us aware of a raccoon attempting entry to the attic, secured access points. The 'cute' flying squirrel in the attic didn't use exit prepared for it but went to basement via ductwork to taste the mousetrap snack n got snapped but not dead. I called n he arrived promptly and removed him to a safe new home. We were extremely pleased with the service and if ever the need arose would definitely call again. I feel my house has been made as pest free as possible through the excellent work of Ark Trapping.

Overall the experience was excellent. The owner of Ark Trapping arrived as he promised, assessed the problem quickly, and fixed it on the first try. My daughter, who lives at the property and had reported the birds trying to enter the kitchen stove exhaust vent, called to tell me the appointment went very smoothly. She called me again two days later to report that after several hours of trying, the wannabe nesting pair of starlings have given up trying to get into her vent and have moved on elsewhere. She is completely pleased.
Description of Work: Checked stove exhaust, powder room, and dryer vents for the presence of birds, creatures, critters. Installed screens that prohibit birds, creatures, critters from entering the vents.

The guy was extremely helpful and he took care of it. He followed up at time and everything was resolved. I didn't think the price was outrageous or anything; obviously it was something we were okay with. He was a very nice guy. If he tells you he will do something, he did it and if he was unable to do it, then he would go out of his way trying to backs up with something else. He did whatever it took to at least equals or above that. We will use their service in the future without any doubt.
Description of Work: We used Ark Trapping last summer to trap some squirrels in the attic.

I had squirrels in my attic. Called one company about 6 weeks ago and they could find no evidence of squirrel entry. Several weeks later I went up in the attic and saw two squirrels in a nest. Called the same company, made an appointment and no one ever showed up, not even a phone call. Called Ark Trapping on 04/22/2010 and an appointment was set up for 04/26/2010. Owner came out even though is was wet and rainy and inspected both the roof and the attic. He set traps and by the end of the week all 5 squirrels were trapped and removed. He taped over the suspected entry points and came back on 5/3/2010 to find no more squirrel activity and permanently closed the suspected entry points. The owner was very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend Ark Trapping to anyone with animals in their home.
Description of Work: Ark Trapping inspected my roof and attic for squirrel activity. He found evidence and set traps. A total of five squirrels were trapped and removed. Then the suspected entry points were permanently sealed.

Bert with Ark Trapping was very accomodating to this job since my fiancee and I had to leave for a vacation trip during the middle of it. He set 5 traps, 3 on the roof and 2 on the ground by the trees the squirrels were using to get to the roof. Overall at least 10 squirrels were caught, possibly due to me having to leave for vacation during the middle of the job and Bert not being able to complete the work until I got back (completely understandable). He trapped the last squirrels when I returned from vacation, and repaired the roof using custom matched aluminum strips that blend perfectly with the house trim. I only needed to be at the house on the first and last days of the job, since he didn't need access to the inside of the home. Ark Trapping charged $325 up front for trapping the animals, there was no per/animal fee (which would have been quite expensive I imagine . . . ) Overall I am very pleased and would highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: Removed at least 10 squirrels and repaired holes that had been chewed in soffit and siding around chimney, also replaced attic fan screen with a much more durable metal screen.

He was fairly priced and very responsive. My problem is that I need to call him back and have him do some more work on it. For what I called him out on, he took his time with it and he showed me exactly where the issues were. He showed me the holes in my roof line that could cause animals to go in.
