Services
Bat Removal
Our experts safely remove bats from attics, chimneys, and structures using humane methods. We implement exclusion techniques during permitted seasons to prevent re-entry while complying with wildlife regulations. Post-removal, we repair damage and install preventive screening to ensure long-term protection against bat infestations.
Raccoon Removal
We address raccoon infestations in attics, chimneys, and under porches using live trapping methods. Our technicians identify entry points and repair structural damage caused by raccoons. Preventive measures include sealing openings and installing durable screening to deter future raccoon activity.
Animal Proofing
Our prevention specialists install metal screening, chimney caps, and vent covers to secure homes against wildlife. We use high-quality materials like AAC products and OSI sealants to create animal-resistant barriers while maintaining proper attic ventilation and structural integrity.
Dead Animal Removal
We locate and remove deceased animals from hard-to-reach areas like walls and attics. Our process includes odor elimination, sanitization of contaminated spaces, and repair of damage caused by decomposing animals to restore safe, habitable conditions.
Attic Inspections
Our technicians conduct thorough attic evaluations to identify wildlife entry points, damaged insulation, and ventilation issues. We check for bathroom exhaust vent leaks that cause mold and recommend comprehensive repairs to prevent future animal intrusions.
