What We Do

More than removal—we solve the root of the problem.


Full Property Inspections


Our process begins with a thorough inspection of your home and property. We identify signs of past or current animal activity—such as droppings, tracks, nesting materials, rub marks, and odors—and locate active entry points.

We provide professional, non-lethal animal removal for a wide range of species—including raccoons, bats, skunks, birds, squirrels, and more. Every removal is done with care and in compliance with state laws, prioritizing the safety of your family and the well-being of the animal.

Residential Animal Exclusion Services


Once the intruders are removed, we prevent their return by sealing all potential access points. From crawlspace vents to rooflines, we use durable materials and expert craftsmanship to permanently exclude wildlife from your home.

Animals and the elements can damage soffits, fascia, siding, insulation, and more. We repair and reinforce compromised areas with affordable, long-lasting solutions that restore your home’s integrity and deter future entry.

Restoration & Reinforcement


We don’t stop at removal and repair. We advise homeowners on ways to reduce future wildlife attraction—such as securing food sources, managing vegetation, and recognizing seasonal risk factors.
