The most effective way to remove flying squirrels from a building is through the process of exclusion, which means that we locate any openings flying squirrels are currently using to gain access into the building and install one-way doors on those openings, enabling the flying squirrels to leave the building, but not return. Upon installation of one-way door(s), technicians will identify and seal all possible re-entry points (the flying squirrels may look for another way in).

Most of the time, one-way doors are left on for one 1-2 weeks, although flying squirrels should be gone within 24-48 hours. When technicians return, they remove the one-way doors and seal the opening. Flying squirrels do not hibernate, but they do nest in your home through the winter and sometimes come back in during late summer for a second litter. Flying squirrels exclusion & prevention work comes with a one-year extendable warranty.

Animal Trapping is usually done for skunks, woodchucks, opossum, rats, raccoons, and porcupine. Customers pay a service fee for technicians to inspect the area and/or set traps as appropriate. Customers are then charged a fee for each animal trapped. Customers are responsible for checking traps each morning and calling the office to report trapped animals. Technicians will then remove trapped animals and then reset/re-bait or remove traps, as necessary.

In some cases where animals may be inside a building or enclosed area, a one-way door may be installed in addition to the trapping, for an additional fee. There is no guarantee that animals will be caught or that new animals will not become a nuisance later.

If target animals return within 2 weeks from technician's last call, Advanced Wildlife Control will reset traps at no charge (although there will be a charge for any animals trapped).

Trapping "programs" are usually set-up for chipmunks, moles/voles and mice. The customer is charged a "weekly" fee, which includes 1-3 visits by the technicians to check traps, remove trapped animals and reset or remove traps as appropriate. Additional weeks can usually be purchased, as needed, at a lower cost than the initial week. Trapping Programs are usually a form of population control and are not "guaranteed" to permanently rid of targeted animals.

Prices and methods vary depending on the situation and wildlife/rodents involved. Please call for more information.

We strongly recommend chimney caps for all of out customers. Chimney caps are a good investment for any home, weather you use your fireplace or not. Chimney caps can protect your chimney from weather and elements, as well as keep unwanted animals from nesting in your chimney, falling into your fireplace, orfinding their way into your basement. Chimney cap prices are based on size, please call the office to schedule an estimate. (There is a service call fee to give estimates on chimney caps, however if you choose to have Advanced Wildlife Control install your cap, the fee is applied to the price of the estimate).
