Swat Wildlife and Insulation

My husband and I would like to thank Derrick and Ken for the prompt and courteous service they provided on November 27, 2012. They climbed a 40 ft. ladder to install a "chicken-wire" type of covering over the hole where the squirrels were entering the soffits. This covering had a one-way door allowing the squirrels to leave the soffits but not re-enter. Three other vents on the roof were covered in the same manner to prevent other entry points for the squirrels. Derrick also came into the house, entered the attic to check for any other squirrel entry points. After, the work was finished , Ken came into the house with the invoice and gave me some useful info on dealing with Carpenter Ants. As for follow-up, it was suggested to call them to remove the wire mesh covering when we could no longer hear any noises coming from the soffits or leave it on for a year as a test. We would not hesitate to recommend this company to friends or neighbours. We have not heard a sound from the soffits since the covering was installed!

After the first company I hired failed to animal proof my house properly, I called SWAT Wildlife because of the excellent reviews I read on Home Stars. Ken from SWAT came to my house the same day and was able to identify the entry point that the red squirrels had found into my house and set up a one-way door so the squirrels can exit but not re enter. He also suggested further animal proofing that could be done on the roof which I appreciated. He was very professional and courteous. When I heard animal sounds a few days later, I called SWAT and Ken returned the same afternoon to investigate. I appreciate the prompt service and I am happy to know that SWAT fulfills the warranty they provide on their work. I would highly recommend SWAT for animal issues.

Adrian, your technician, just left my house. He is such a sweet, respectful + patient young man.
hopefully the woodpeckers will not come back to continue destroying my stucco home.
Thanks for your help.

I have two chimneys that are no longer in use and I had a raccoon subdivision starting up with two families preparing for winter. Swat wildlife came the day after I called and set up 'one way doors' and capped the chimneys. The service was great! They did the job quickly and I would definitely recommend them.

Very impressive. I heard what sounded like raccoons in our attic. I called SWAT -- they were very responsive. I met with their representative and he was very professional and knowledgeable. He checked the house out carefully but couldn't find an entry point. Instead of giving up, he scheduled another appointment when 2 technicians could come. They spend an hour going over the house top to bottom and did not find an entry point. No charge! I tried to pay them for their time, but Patti in the office was not willing. I put them on my dailer in case we hear something again. I recommend them wholeheartedly. Good folks to deal with.

They came out and removed the bat (a big one) and Derek and crew came out and sealed up entry points. Painless and reasonably priced. Prior we walked around the house and figured out all points of entry and he closed/sealed/fenced all of them!

Swat Wildlife Came to the rescue following an invasion of approx. 6 Racoons in my attic.Other Pest control agencies said nothing could be done until the racoons vacated my premises on their own . Something to do with the time of year and offsprings . Swat sucessfully got Mom and the kids out of my house and offered realistic solutions to prevent their re-entry . Racoons can do great damage to the interior of an attic and their removal is only as good as the ability to prevent their return .Both aspects were capably handled and I am very thankful I had the good fortune to have dealt with such a knowledgeable firm .
Keep up the good work and thanks for your help

We heard an animal in the front part of our roof and assumed it was a squirrel. Whatever it was, we knew we had to get it out and the job wasn't something we knew how to do ourselves.

We called another company first who said they would come the next afternoon. They were a no show (of course, very frustrating when you stay home for them!), so we saw the great reviews on HomeStars for SWAT so we called them next.

SWAT gave us an exact time that they would show up and they were right on time. They quickly assessed the situation and told us that they could do the job right away if we wanted. They inspected the space and then set up a one-way door in case the animal was still hiding inside. Haven't had a problem since.

We were impressed with their punctuality and their ability to rectify our problem on the spot, without having to come back on a different day. Would definitely call SWAT again first if we had another similar problem.

They responded very promptly and professionally, put the wire mesh in two places and even left it in place until the roof was fixed. The guy who came was very polite, very good, and it even cost less than what others asked for. I hope I never have a raccoon in the roof again, but if do, I'll have no hesitation to call on S.W.A.T.
