Who This Is For
Homeowners hearing animal sounds in attics or walls. Property owners with recurring wildlife issues.
The Problem
Wildlife enters through surprisingly small openings. A raccoon can fit through a 4-inch gap. Once inside, they damage insulation, chew wiring (fire hazard), and leave droppings that carry disease. DIY removal is dangerous and often illegal.
Treatment Options
Humane Trapping & Removal
$300-$800Licensed professional traps and relocates animals per state regulations. Provides exclusion recommendations.
Full Exclusion
$800-$3,000Seal every entry point with wildlife-proof materials. One-way doors allow animals to exit but not re-enter.
When to Call a Professional
Call immediately if you hear animal sounds in your attic or walls. Each day the animal is inside means more damage and more droppings. Do not attempt to trap wildlife yourself.
