Raccoons in crawl space wreaking havoc
With a baby on the way, we were getting very concerned about the raccoons living in the crawl space under an extension in the rear of our house. We were procrastinating dealing with this for about 6 months because the problem was complex and not really pressing since we don't use our backyard very much. But we noticed that the little buggers had made quite a nest for themselves by destroying the insulation to the vent that warmed the extension. Not only were we not getting heat to the room but we were spewing hot air into their nest. Smart little critters.
Our HVAC repairman wouldn't fix the vent until the raccoon had been dealt with. We called a few companies and most of them couldn't promise to prevent the raccoons from returning after they removed them because of the specific issues going on with the plastic siding of the crawl space and other factors.
ENTER JOE BRUNO. Joe at Snap Pest Control is much more than just a wildlife removal service. He is also a smart handyman who knows how to solve problems.
Joe visited once for free to review the situation and together we strategized a permanent solution. He is a very nice guy, pleasant to deal with, and friendly. Creative. Via email we discussed how to deal with the problem and once we decided on a course of action he came back a few days later with all materials needed and handled the situation. He came on a cold day in the middle of the winter and worked for a few hours, all as promised. In the end he provided a very effective solution; the raccoons are gone and I don't believe there is any way for them to return. It is now 2 weeks later and today I entered the crawl space with my heating repairman and saw from the inside that the raccoons have not returned. Problem solved.
Joe is a good guy. Trustworthy and smart. We would definitely recommend him to anyone who has raccoons in a tricky, complicated spot of their home. Thanks Joe!

Sometimes you just gotta get down and dirty and solve a pest issue for once and for all. With a baby on the way my client needed a solution and fast. With some quick carpentry work and dremmel cutting tool the job was completed in no time. Glad I could be of help.Joe
