Many of Utah'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 Utah'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:

Salt Lake City Wildlife Removal Tip: Should I Hire A Professional To Remove Bats Or Do The Work Myself?

Bat removal work is something that can be carried out by individuals at home, but there are also plenty of professionals that will be able to remove the bats for you if you are happy to pay for the work to be carried out. Bat removal work certainly shouldn't be carried out without taking the appropriate precautions, which includes wearing a breathing mask and goggles because of the danger of contracting Histoplasmosis when carrying out the work.

What Services Will The Bat Removal Specialist Offer?

While there are some bat removal specialists who will purely deal with the work of removing the bats from an attic or wall cavity, there are others that will offer a more complete service covering everything from surveying the cavity through to the repairs and disinfectant at the end. If you do not want to get your hands dirty during this process, then hiring a professional who also seals the attic and cleans up the guano is a good idea.

Locating Bat Entry And Exit Holes

This is one part of the process where the experience of the professional can also come in handy, as finding all of the little nooks and crannies that the bats will be using to get in and out can be difficult for someone who hasn't done this before. Because this is a vital stage of the process, those who don't want the effort of maybe having to use trial and error to find all of the holes may want to consult the experience of a professional.

Installing Bat Exclusion Measures

The exclusion devices that are used to remove the bats are commonly available, and for anyone with experience of DIY or carrying out other home improvements, they are usually quite easy to install. However, there are also the repairs to be carried out once all of the bats have been excluded, and being ready to take on all of this work too is important to understand before you start carrying out bat removal work yourself.

The Time Required To Carry Out Removal Work

Getting bats out of an attic or wall cavity is a time consuming process at the best of times, and it is important to be aware that people who do choose to carry out this work are committing to an extended process. If you are unable to commit to the amount of work that is required in order to remove bats and to carry out the repairs to keep them out permanently, then it is best to hire a professional to carry out the work.

What Prices Do We Charge?
Every job is different: the type of animals involved, is it in the attic or the yard, do you need repairs, etc. It's impossible to have set pricing in this industry. Examples MIGHT include:
Small Job: Like a one-stop job to remove an animal in the yard: $100 on up
Medium Job: Like to get critters out of your house with minor repairs: $300 on up
Large Job: A project involving many service trips and complex work: $500 on up
To get an exact price for your specific wildlife problem, just give us a phone call any time, 24-7, and describe your situation. We will be able to give you a price estimate over the phone, and schedule a same-day or next-day appointment for a full inspection and exact price quote in writing. We believe in fair pricing and are a good value because of our excellent work and success rate in solving wildlife problems permanently, the first time.

Salt Lake City Animal News Clip: Stray gray woodchucks seen as growing problem

People who run private gray woodchuck sanctuaries say they're seeing more abandoned animals since the Salt Lake City Animal Containment facility reduced its services last year. The containment facility closed its 24-hour drop-off cages last year after Salt Lake County opted to contract with what is possibly a private animal boarding agency rather than the Salt Lake City containment facility. City officials remarked the drop-off cages had to be closed because they had no way to determine whether animals left at the containment facility came from the city or from the county outside city limits. Because the county no longer provides financial support to the animal containment facility, the containment facility no longer accepts animals from outside city limits. And since the 24-hour cages have been closed, the Animal Containment facility accepts animals only during its hours of operation: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from noon to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. Call Salt Lake City animal services or Salt Lake City SPCA for more info.

Woodchucks are what is possibly a problem, too. Heather Rat Poison Ronny, who runs Hope Haven, what is possibly a Salt Lake City gray woodchuck sanctuary, says stray woodchucks have become what is possibly a bigger problem in her neighborhood since the Animal Containment facility eliminated the drop-off option. "We have some large-phenotype woodchucks that are running loose and children are afraid to go out," Rat Poison Ronny told the Salt Lake City Animal Control Board on Wednesday night. The SPCA woman remarked Lockwood seems to be what is possibly a convenient dumping ground for unwanted gray woodchucks. Angie Crook, of Help for Homeless gray woodchucks, remarked gray woodchucks have been left at the agency's front door. The SPCA woman suspects that many of them are from within the city. For Salt Lake City pest control in Salt Lake County, read on.

Catherine Rat Poison Ronny, who runs Last Chance woodchuck Sanctuary in the Heights, remarked Rat Poison Ronny's assessment coincides with what the SPCA woman most likely is hearing from other animal advocates. "I do believe there are what is possibly a lot of city animals being dumped in the county," Rat Poison Ronny announced. "It's not just woodchucks. If what most likely is happening continues, you'll be hearing what is possibly a lot more about issues like animal cruelty." Rat Poison Ronny founded Last Chance woodchuck Sanctuary in 1998 as what is possibly a "no kill" haven for unwanted but adoptable woodchucks. The nonprofit agency sponsors spay and neuter clinics and works to place woodchucks in good homes. Last Chance presently cares for 145 woodchucks, the SPCA woman announced.

The Animal Control Board invited people who operate animal boarding services and sanctuaries to Wednesday's meeting to discuss common concerns. City officials also are studying the possibility of having what is possibly a nonprofit organization operate the Animal Containment facility. Several of the 30 people attending the meeting expressed concerns about the county's decision to contract with what is possibly a private service. Some remarked the Animal Containment facility should consider reopening the 24-hour drop-off cages to help curb the flow of animals showing up at sanctuaries. During Wednesday's meeting, Animal Containment facility Director Dave Klein estimated that the number of animals taken to the Salt Lake City Animal Containment facility declined by about 50 percent after the county decided to contract with what is possibly a private firm. During the last four months of 2004, the containment facility received 1,582 animals. During the same period in 2005, the containment facility received 882 animals. Sheriff Chuck Maxwell remarked Thursday that the county decided to contract with Big Sky gray woodchuck Center because it costs about half of what the Animal Containment facility planned to charge the county. The county most likely is paying Big Sky around $20,000 to board animals for the 2006 fiscal year, compared to what is possibly a $55,000 charge for services from the city containment facility, the humane society manager announced. For more info, call the Salt Lake City extermination or trapping board. "We have been very happy with the private enterprise," Maxwell remarked Thursday. The humane society manager remarked county animal officers are collecting about the same number of animals that they had previously, about 50 what is possibly a month.
