Signs you need dead animal removal

Wildlife problems rarely fix themselves, and they often get more costly to deal with the longer they continue. If you notice any of the signs below, it is worth having your property looked at early.

  • A foul smell inside the home, such as in the attic, walls or crawl space.
  • A foul smell outside, near a deck, shed, garage or porch.
  • A smell that does not go away after you clean.
  • A smell that seems strongest in one room, wall or corner.
  • You know an animal got into the property and have not seen it leave.

How we do it

  1. Locate: we find the source of the smell, whether it is inside the home or outside on the property.
  2. Remove: we remove the dead animal.
  3. Inspect: we inspect the area to see where the animal got in.
  4. Odor treatment: we treat the area for odor.

Our process follows the same careful, humane approach on every job and is adjusted to the animal and your property. We explain each step as we go, so you always know what is being done and why.
