Many of South Carolina's wild animals have learned to adapt and even thrive in our homes. For example some wildlife have found that attics make great places to live. Other animals find refuge under homes or porches. Invariably, these animals cause damage. Rodents, like squirrels and rats, love to chew on electrical wires once in an attic, and this causes a serious fire hazard. Raccoons can cause serious contamination in an attic with their droppings and parasites. Same goes for bat or bird colonies. We specialize in solving South Carolina's wildlife problems, from snake removal to large jobs like commercial bat control, we do it all.

We handle every aspect of wildlife control. We are fully equipped to work on any project, large or small. Some of our services include:

Lancaster Wildlife Removal Tip: The South Carolina Water Snake: Appearance, biology, life cycle, habitat, diet, behavior: Some people think the northern water snake is the copperhead but don't worry, this one is a relatively harmless one that isn't venomous and will only attack if provoked or threatened. In certain states of the US, these are incredibly common and around watery areas (lakes and rivers), it's not unusual to see a couple of these per day. Moving more into residential areas, they're not quite that common but there's still a good chance you'll spot one. This is one of the largest species of snake in South Carolina, and tends to be rather dark in coloration - black, gray, brown, green, etc. They can vary from state to state however, much like many other species. The habitat they choose will also change their diet - snakes living close to watery areas will enjoy fish, frogs, etc. they will also eat rats, mice and other rodents, and are considered to be beneficial to helping keep down the rodent population. Although not really an aggressive snake, the northern water snake WILL defend itself when threatened, and it doesn't take a lot of handling to upset it. It won't go out of its way to provoke a human, but if a human provokes it, it definitely has the tools to defend itself.
