Our services we provide.
First you must narrow down your pest problem to a single category. Once you have a general idea choose one of the following services below for more info, facts, and services.
Pigeons may be live-trapped on buildings and other likely locations. Live-traps for pigeons are available. Pre-baiting the traps with grains that the birds are accustomed to will increase success. A variety of baits, including cracked corn, millet, popcorn, sunflower seeds, peas, bread, and peanuts can be used. Water is available in the trap at all times. Trapping in any given area will usually reduce the number of pigeons quickly and humanely, it is labor intensive, and most of the time a great reduction measure.

Bats, while some species can be larger, bats are usually not much bigger than a house mouse. The wingspan of the two most common Canadian species, the little brown bat and the big brown bat, ranges from 8 to 14 inches. Bats will mate in fall or winter and the pups are usually weaned in July or August. A few bat species will migrate to the south when cold weather approaches while other species will just move to trees, caves, mines and attics where the temperature does not go below the freezing point. In some cases, the big brown bat will even roost in buildings throughout the winter if conditions are favorable, e.g. high humidity level and temperature above the freezing point. Bats are loyal to their birthplaces, often returning to the same roost site year after year. A bat can live up to 30 years. There are more than 1100 different species in the world 46 species here in North America alone. And they account for about 1/4th of the world's mammal population.
This is the only marsupial in North America. A body length of 12 to 24 inches and its tail 9 to 20 inches. Not the largest marsupial weighing in at less than 15 pounds and with a life span of only 2 to 3 years; no wonder he is a nocturnal creature. They are scavengers of the night looking for food and a place to spend the night. They can eat anything and do so. But caution any food left out specially cat, and dog food will attract them to your home. About the only benefit to you as a home owner is that they sometimes control your rodent problems. A sticky critter in the wild although gentle when left undisturbed, contrary to its vicious looks
The raccoon can be recognized by its notorious black mask and tail with black rings. Adult raccoons can be up to 3 feet long and weigh between 10 to 60 pounds. Raccoons have a whitish gray coat. This fur is long and dense, a grizzled brown and black color that has often been described as "salt and pepper." The tail can grow to be fifteen inches. A tail can have five to seven black rings on it.
Skunks can be found near forests, bushes, Holes, and under buildings. They release a strong stench from a gland as a defense against any attackers. They can be usually identified by their 2 white stripes on the back and are about the same size as a house cat. Always keep a safe distance away from skunks to avoid getting sprayed on. Abolish technicians routinely capture and remove skunks in the spring and take every precaution to avoid lingering spray odors from skunks.
Squirrels are clever and persistent critters and can be a nuisance when they turn your attic, crawlspace, or interior walls into their home. Especially in an area with a dense squirrel population, Squirrel proofing is essential in keeping squirrels as well as other pests out. The only effective way to remove squirrels from your attic or home is by trapping or by one-way trap doors which let the squirrel out but not in. After which proofing should be done. After trapping, Squirrels are released to a remote area alongside a source of water such as a river or pond.
There are about thirty-three snake species in California, six of which are venomous rattlesnakes. While rattlesnakes may be dangerous, there are many beneficial snakes as well; they are a natural means of pest control. Our snake removal and control service can consist of manual removal, snake proofing, snake fencing, repellents, or live trapping if necessary. Proper proofing is the most effective way of avoiding future snake and pest problems.
Gophers and Moles may be present if there are several holes in the yard. Simply ignoring the animals may worsen your yard and infestation population may rise. Proper gopher control is essential in completely removing the pests. Homeowners often attempt to remove the gophers but improper methods leads to reoccurring infestations.

Beware: There are many products and gimmicks that are advertised to remove and keep animals away. If you don't know what your doing or fall for an unreliable product you may be wasting your money. We have pictures of examples of how inexperience and faulty products can make a problem worse.
Residential, Commercial, and Industrial
Animals have a large array of structures to choose from. That is why our animal control is not just limited to Residential areas but Commercial and Industrial as well. Commercial and Industrial animal control requires much more man power and time considering the area that has to be proofed. Most Industrial bird control jobs are usually a compilation of years of animal or rodent infestation. Over the years the site becomes an area heavily infested with possible disease and feces and working in such an environment is hazardous to ones health.
Commercial areas infested with birds can also bring in many complaints and degrade the status of ones business. An area nesting hundreds or thousands of birds can become an offensive sight as well as a feces contaminated area. There are many instances when someone hires a company for animal control but in turn will simply get a bill for sloppy and ineffective work. A lot of our work is done to fix what other companies have failed to do. Our top priority is to prevent the birds from nesting or roosting in your area. Before we complete our bird proofing we highly recommend our decontamination and cleanup services. If you attempt to clean the infestation yourself, it is strongly recommended to have proper equipment.
