Squirrel and babies

We had heard some noises for a while in our daughter's bedroom. We suspected squirrels but delayed doing anything because it was early spring and did not want to evict the babies. Finally decided it was time to deal with the issue. We called 3 different companies for quotes. Ken from Gotcha was by far the most professional. He asked key questions and gave a clear explanation of what he would do. Ken arrived when he said he would and returned to remove the one way traps as promised. A1 service !!!

Service

I called Gotcha Wildlife Services based on the reviews on Homstars and what can I say, the reviews were accurate. I called Ken on a Friday for a mouse and squirrels in my attic. First he explained what his services would entail and the cost. He came next day Saturday! I was So pleased with his service and price. He thoroughly checked my roof, garage,the outside of my home and went in the attic! He told me I don't have squirrels but do have mice in the attic and garage. He took his time and discussed all entry points and what I need to do. Ken offered to come back if I have any issues or other questions. He is HONEST AND PATIENT! He answered what must have been a hundred questions and put my anxieties to rest. I would definitely recommend Gotcha Wildlife to friends and family. Thanks again Ken.

Squirrels In the Walls

After reading reviews on HomeStars, I decided to call Gotcha Wildlife to take care of squirrels running in the walls of our house!! Ken was more than accommodating of our schedule, offering to survey the exterior of of our home while we weren't present so that we could have the first available appointment. Not only did Ken successfully take care of the problem, he also took the time to explain what he did and sent before & after photos of the squirrels' entry point on the roof. Two weeks later, we had a bat flying through the house (!!) and he came back free of charge to ensure that it hadn't entered through the same weak-spot in the roof and completed a thorough walk through of our home to ensure that it was a one-off incident. While I hope we've had our fair share of wildlife encounters this summer (!!) if any additional critters do return, we won't hesitate to call Ken and would highly recommend that you do the same :)

Chipmunk Removal

Called multiple wild life removal companies, Kenneth seemed the most experienced and reasonable priced. After hearing scratching noises in my attic I decided to call Gotcha Wildlife to see what it was. Initially thinking it was a raccoon, Kenneth told me it was a few chipmunks that have found an entrance into my attic. Kenneth set up a humane trap that would let the chipmunks leave, but could not enter through. After about 3 days I have not heard any noises in my attic. Very professional and finished the job within an hour.

Cute Little 'Coon!

They certainly do look somewhat cute - until they're in your attic!

We had Kenneth come to our home earlier this year and all contact and work he did was awesome. He explained what needed to happen to deal with Mom Coon and her babies and made it happen. He made "good" suggestions as to prevention. We did take him up on that as well - it was pretty easy to see the relevance and importance.

Not sure at all what we would have done without him as it was our first (and hopefully last) experience with something like this!

The only way it would have been easier would be...
If it did not happen in the first place. :)

Thanks Dan for sharing your experience with others. We certainly understand that racoon and wildlife intrusions are a big problem for many home owners and that it would be easier if it didn't happen in the first place. This is why Gotcha Wildlife strives to help customers to deal with this type of problems in a less stressful manner. Gotcha Wildlife

Kenneth saved the day!!

My house turned into a fly factory/apocalyptic crime scene/pet cemetery. Within one day, I noticed crazy amount of flies, the next day same story. Was informed by exterminators I had something dead somewhere around or in my house. Yuck. I called multiple Wildlife Removal companies and Ken stood out as the best. Best pricing, easy going, AND he came to me within the hour. Talk about service.

Long story short, he found what he was looking for and even a few other rodents that were under my crawl space. He went above and beyond, solved the problem and within 4 hours the flies were GONE - including the poor little critters that died in my house. Thanks for saving the day Ken! You're the BEST.

Wildlife removal, pest removal, squirrels, mice

Gotcha Wildlife Removal Service was fantastic. We've had several red squirrels living in our house since the spring. We tried to remove them but weren't successful. We contacted Ken from Gotcha Wildlife Removal Service and were greatful we did. He came inspected our house and advised us of entry points and resolve not only our squirrel issued but our mice issues. We had questions regarding our pest issues and he answered them with no hesitation. Ken we appreciate your prompt response therefore easing my daughters fear of the noises that she heard in our house. THANKS AGAIN GOTCHA WILDLIFE REMOVAL SERVICE AND KEN FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND ASSISTANCE.

Squirrel removal and prevention

I had a sense of trust and comfort with Ken from the moment I spoke to him on the phone and that was only re-enforced when he came to our home. He was knowledgeable, informative and professional. The ranges of costs were exactly what he explained before he came out and we were very pleased with the work. He wildlife proofed 10 roof vents and repaired 3 plumbing vents and 2 other areas for us. Thanks Ken and Gotcha Wildlife!

Squirrel removal

I called Gotcha Wildlife because of a squirrel in our wall. Ken and Lucas arrived the next day to solve our squirrel problem. I was worried that the job would require a lot of time, effort and money but Ken was very professional, knowledgeable and calm. He explained what his team would do and he gave informative possible scenarios. They placed a screen with one way door over the roof vent. We were thrilled when 2 adult and 2 young squirrels made it out of our wall, through the vent and then couldn't return. I would highly recommend Gotcha Widlife.
