Mice Infestation

Back in December we noticed mouse dropping in the basement. After some research I contacted Ken at Gotcha Wildlife and he showed up the same day. He understood my concerns and thoroughly explained the issue and solution. Ken inspected and bated our home and we hoped for no further issues. Unfortunately due to a lack of cooperation from my neighbour the mice returned a short time later. I contacted Ken and without hesitation he showed up to rebate the home. In fact, he had to come back several times as our neighbour did not seal up exterior enter points as suggested by Ken. Ken and his team were absolutely amazing! He understood our difficult situation but never made us feel like we were a burden. Throughout this entire experience I probably called Ken 4-5 times and during each call he listened to my concerns and made it his mission to help me find a solution. The one year guarantee was honored without any questions. Ken is professional, reliable, fast and honest. I would highly recommend Gotcha Wildlife! Don't waste your time contacting any other company because you will not find amazing service like this anywhere else!. Thank you Gotacha Wildlife!!

Squirrel Removal/attic

Roofing company blocked the entrance/exit that a small (3-4) family of squirrels had managed to discover, gained entry to my attic. My first thought was to just purchase a humane trap...rid the attic of squirrels....and repair the hole. Great in theory, but brutal in action. Two days elapsed and the squirrels had not entered the trap after repeated trips to the attic by myself to set/check/adjust the trap.Finally called "Gotcha" wildlife removal and the owner/operator made time on the weekend, on a busy day, to attend as the squirrels would probably not survive another day or two and I heard increased activity as they were now frantic to exit for food and water. Sometimes you just get lucky and the call you make brings you the people you know are best capable to perform the duties they have promised....and are professional in there performance of duty. Gotcha Wildlife arrived...found the nest...physically removed one squirrel...and created a proper one way exit to enable the remaining squirrels to exit. We actually saw one of the remaining two or three leave a few hours later. The cost of this service is reasonable, and I felt it was money well spent to solve the problem. In a week or so the one way exit will be removed, when we are both satisfied all squirrels have vacated...and the area of entry returned to its original condition. Job well done !!!Thank you

Dead Animal Removal

4 days ago we noticed a large number of flies in the house. Despite killing them this situation repeated itself for two days. Meanwhile, my wife noticed a strange odour which became increasingly pungent. We called several wildlife removal companies but none could come for at least four days. Then I called Ken at Gotcha Wildlife and told him the problem and the fact we had two small children in the house. He agreed to come out to the house that same evening (after hours) and was here within 45 minutes. He resolved the problem (a dead squirrel in the chimney), neutralized the odour, and repaired a hole on the chimney. Excellent customer service!

Raccoon Removal

Heard scratching and squealing noises in the corner of our bedrooms. Through a recommendation from a friend we were able to contact Gotcha Wildlife. They put a one way gate where the mama raccoon entered from (the gate is able to restrict animals from entering but allow animals to exit). The workers physically removed 6 baby raccoons safely and were put in a cardboard box. The babies were left in our backyard for the mama raccoon to take later.

Racoon Remove

Ken & Lucas are very nice and professional, provided useful informations about raccoon removal and house protection from wildlife beyond his work. Punctual and sincere, recommend for people who is in rush and you can leave the work for them to do. Good service, and would go for them the next time I need a wildlife service.

Rat problem under the deck

Kenneth came all the way out to my residence in Burlington, diagnosed the rat problem under my deck and installed bait stations. He was very helpful and knowledgeable. He took the time to point out some areas where mice were gaining entry via the weeping tile and offered a cheap and effective fix at no additional cost. Nice guy, very pleasant and down to earth.

I am a manager at a large cultural facility in Toronto and Kenneth performed a large raccoon removal and clean up of an abandoned structure. This was a large commercial job, not only was he the cheapest quote, but his service was excellent. I would recommend him for any job, big or small.

Clean attic of raccoon feces and patched hole in side of roof

I received a quote a year ago, and they came in and honoured that quote. They came in with masks and cleaned out several area in the attic that had been soiled by the raccoons then sprayed it with anti-microbial, anti-fungal type spray (I don't know the name of it). Kenneth also fixed a portion of my roof that originally needed an 8 foot repair but in the interim I had patched inexpertly, so on this visit they said I only needed 4 feet fixed (so less money). All of the work was done quickly and efficiently. Hopefully I have kept the critters at bay but if I need a wildlife person, I will use them again!

Raccoon removal and chimney sealing

I contacted gotcha wildlife based on reviews on HomeStars and what a great decision - thank you! Kenneth was super prompt in responding to emails and was very informative. When I requested my appointment they gave me a few different options with reasonably narrow time frames so that I could plan my day. When Kenneth and Lucas arrived they were polite and professional. They found the raccoon and her babies and showed me pictures of the damage to my chimney netting so that I could see what was going on. After explaining to me what they were going to do, they had them removed and my chimney properly sealed up within an hour. It was a great service. I will absolutely contact gotchawildlife again for any animal removal needs. Highly recommend.

Bird Removal

I had a problem with birds getting into a couple of vents in my home. Called Ken who gave me an appointment for the following day. He was very patient in answering my questions on what would be done and he also provided a clear quote which was competitive compared to many of the othe companies I had spoken with. Ken and his associate arrived the next day and the work was carried just as he indicated earlier. I know because I observed what was being done. I was so pleased with the quality of the work and the fact that it was guarantd for a full 3 years that on the spot I made the decision to have Ken install protective wire mesh over all the other external vents on my house. My neighbor has the same problem and I will be passing on Ken's business card to him.

Attic racoon clean up and treatment for mice.

After having a racoon and her babies removed with another pest control company from our attic we were in despair at the thought of the "clean up"! We luckily found Gotcha wildlife number...called up Ken on a Monday evening and on a Tuesday afternoon our problem was delt with! Super professional, reliable, fast and honest! Our only regret is that we didn't call Ken for the whole job! Highly recommended!
