Our technicians performing a bat-control job

Atlanta is full of carpenter bees
Happy Friday. Going to Snellville Ga to seal a house then off to Atlanta to do some quotes
One of our wildlife-control technicians is on his way to check the traps at a Centerville, Georgia squirrel-removal job. We're pretty sure that all of squirrels have been trapped and relocated, but we want to be certain before we permanently animal-proof the roof. We don't want to trap any squirrels in the attic.
Our wildlife damage-repair experts are repairing damage to the fascia at a Warner Robins, Georgia squirrel-removal job. The squirrels climbed up the downspout and gnawed a hole through the fascia right over an elbow in the pipe leading from the rain gutter to the vertical pipe.
A squirrel-removal crew working at a house in Greenville, Georgia is repairing damage to the siding. The squirrels gnawed a fist-sized hole through the wooden siding and the sheathing behind it to get into the house.
The reason the raccoons chose the spot they did to try to get into the attic of a Cuthbert, Georgia home was because the plywood was already water damaged, making it easier for them to claw their way through it. The crew trapping and removing the raccoons from the attic will also fix the water problem and the damage.
Water overflow from the rain gutter damaged the soffit panel, creating a triangular gap at a roof junction that allowed squirrels into the attic of a Cuthbert, Georgia home. Squirrel-removal experts from our South Georgia office are trapping and relocating the squirrels, addressing the water problem, and repairing the damage.
Wildlife-control specialists from our Macon office are busy working at an Albany, Georgia squirrel-removal job. The squirrels are in the attic (not surprisingly, their being squirrels and all). We're setting traps so they can be humanely caught and relocated to the woods.
Hiawassee rats are huge
Headed to Oxford, Ga to do another Bat Exclusion this morning!
Quoted 2 in LaGrange, Ga. one for bats and the other for snakes. Next stop, Newnan Ga for mice.
The space around an inch-and-a-half pipe passing through a four-inch square hole in a plywood crawl space skirt was an irresistible invitation for Norway rats to get into a house in Roberta, Georgia. Our rat control crew is revoking that invitation by trapping and removing the rats and rodent-proofing the house.
Chewed up bits of foam insulation on the Sheetrock between the joists were evidence of gray squirrels that needed to be trapped and removed from the attic of a house in Macon, Georgia. Our squirrel-removal crew is on the job getting the work done.
Tomorrow we're starting a squirrel-removal and animal-proofing job at a Roberta, Georgia home. The squirrels climbed up inside a downspout with a foam-insulated pipe running through it to get into the attic. The foam insulation makes it easier for the squirrels to get a grip and to climb up the downspout.
Tree rats tunneled a hole about an inch and a half in diameter through the foam insulation to get into the attic of a house in Griffin, Georgia. The rat control crew will install a metal pest barrier over the edge of the roof from the outside to rat-proof the roof, and use traps to non-chemically catch and remove the rats that already got into the attic.
We have rodent pest control specialists from our South Georgia office doing Norway rat control in the crawl space of a Sylvester, Georgia home this morning. They're doing the non-chemically, of course, as we always do.
Someone removed a pipe from a foundation wall but didn't bother filling the hole, which allowed Norway rats into the crawl space of a house in Dawson, Georgia. Rodent pest exclusion specialists from our South Georgia office are sealing the perimeter of the house to make it rat-proof.
I’m in Bremen this morning giving a free quote for a Bat Exclusion, then heading to Covington so seal a house for Rats. We are busy and blessed!
Headed to Alpharetta Ga this morning to quote a new house from a previous customer then to Snellville to seal a house.
All of the funnel traps were empty this morning at an Americus, Georgia squirrel-removal job. Now that all the squirrels have been trapped and relocated, we're removing the traps and buttoning up the roof to make it wildlife-proof.
This morning we have a crew doing mouse control in the attic of a Columbus, Georgia home. A gap between the roof sheathing and the upper edge of the metal rain gutter allowed mice to get from the gutter into the attic. We'll cover it with a metal pest barrier to rodent-proof the house.
We're finishing up a Columbus, Georgia squirrel-removal job this morning. All the squirrels have been trapped and relocated. We need to finish sealing the holes where the funnel traps were, and then replace the attic insulation; and then we'll call the job done.
Raccoons pushed the skirt around a mobile in Macon, Georgia inward using pure muscle power to get into the crawl space under the mobile home. The team trapping and removing the raccoons will also beef up the skirting to keep raccoons and other wildlife from getting under the home.
We Have a Rodent Pest Control Crew Correcting a Handyman's Failed Attempt to Rat-Proof a House in Columbus, Georgia
Greasy bat stains on the rear edge of the soffit panel made it easy to tell how bats were getting into the attic of a house in Columbus, Georgia. To properly bat-proof the house, however, the bat-removal crew will have to seal all of the potential bat-entry points, not just the ones that they're currently using.
Upon entering the attic, our inspector found several dozen bats huddled together in a corner near the gap in the framing at the edge of the roof that allowed them into the attic of a house in Macon, Georgia. We have the house scheduled for bat removal and wildlife exclusion.
Water damage to the soffit panel created a soft spot on the edge nearest the rain gutter that made it easier for squirrels to get into the attic of a house in Macon, Georgia. The squirrel-removal team will fix the water problem and replace the soffit panel, in addition to trapping and relocating the squirrels.
The bottom section of a downspout slipped down about eight inches, creating a gap that allowed gray squirrels to get into the downspout and climb to the rain gutter of a commercial building in Gray, Georgia. Squirrels climb inside downspouts because they are more protected from birds of prey and other predators than when climbing an exposed wall.
Sealing the gap around an electrical conduit where it passes through a hole in the brick wall will be a vital part of a Macon, Georgia Norway rat control job. We treat pest rodent infestations without using poisons, making exclusion an absolute must.
A hole in a brick wall shaped like a number eight laying on its side, with a foam-covered pipe passing through the right-hand side of the hole, allowed Norway rats to climb the pipe and through the hole to get into a house in Gray, Georgia. The rat control crew don't know what happened to the other pipe. The rats don't know either, but they were happy for the easy way to get into the house.
On the road again
Going to Oxford Ga this morning to check out some bats in a chimney box. Then to Madison Ga to screen under a porch to keep raccoons out. Finishing up the day in Ellijay Ga with some Carpenter bees.
Another successful day of critter catching.
The reason why our wildlife-control professionals are in an attic doing squirrel removal in Griffin, Georgia is because the squirrels climbed up inside a downspout to get to the rain gutter, and from there into the attic. This is not at all unusual.
Norway rats gnawed at and enlarged a knot hole in the wooden siding to get into a house in Griffin, Georgia, and from there traveled through the wall voids to other parts of the house. A rat control team from our Macon office is setting traps to eliminate the rat problem without using poisons, and sealing the house to prevent future infestations of rodent pests.
Raccoons tore off a strip of the siding right above the shingles at a roof junction to get into a house in Griffin, Georgia. The wildlife-control team trapping and removing the raccoons from the house is also repairing the damage.
A sloppy job of roof flashing left a gap of about an inch and a half under the flashing that allowed gray squirrels into the attic of a house in Adel, Georgia. Our squirrel-removal crew will reattach the flashing to close the gap and keep squirrels and other wildlife out of the attic.
A gap about an inch high by two inches wide between the roof flashing and the fascia is the reason why we're doing roof rat control in the attic of a house in Adel, Georgia. We're setting traps to catch and remove the rats from the attic; and rodent-proofing the roof for long-lasting, non-chemical rat exclusion.
A crease in the metal roof flashing formed a little tent-shaped opening that allowed mice into the attic of a house in Adel, Georgia. The mice made their way up to the rain gutter and got into the attic through the gap. Our mouse control crew is installing a metal pest barrier to rodent-proof the attic.
Dawsonville
It’s a beautiful day to catch some critters
Here is a Snapshot from a Technician doing a Perry, Georgia Squirrel-Removal Job
Wildlife-exclusion specialists from our Macon office are installing Ridge Guard as the crowning touch to a Camilla, Georgia squirrel-removal job. It replaces the plastic roof ridge vent that the squirrels chewed through to get into the attic.
A pest control crew doing carpenter bee control in Fitzgerald, Georgia had to get up on the roof to treat carpenter bee holes in the trim. Carpenter bees aren't especially hard to kill. It's just hard to get to the holes a lot of times. We've had to use cherry pickers on some carpenter-bee jobs.
Norway rats with an exceptionally good work ethic gnawed a hole about the size and shape of a lemon through the sill plate and framing to get into the crawl space of a house in Zebulon, Georgia. Rats are very proficient at gnawing holes, but they also tend to be lazy and look for other ways in first. We have a rodent pest control crew at the house trapping the rats and sealing them out of the house.
Norway rats dug a burrow under a brick foundation wall to get into the crawl space of a house in Thomaston, Georgia. Rat control technicians from our South Georgia office, armed with trowels and patching cement, are patching the gaps in the wall to keep rats and other rodent pests out of the house.
The Second Video in Today's Friday Double-Feature is of a Squirrel-Removal Job at a House in Gray, Georgia
Marietta rats
Headed to Stone Mountain to meet the new buyers of a house that an inspector found bats in. Then to Watkinsville Ga for the same issue.
Mice chewed around AC lines in a home in Hiawassee Georgia.
The wildlife-control crew whom we sent to a Barnesville, Georgia squirrel-removal job discovered that the squirrels in the attic were fox squirrels, which are less common than gray squirrels, but are treated using similar techniques: we humanely trap them, relocate them to a more-suitable habitat, and seal them out of the house.
We just got a call for carpenter bee control in Cordele, Georgia. Carpenter bees don't eat wood. The female carpenter bees drills holes and burrow tunnels in the wood to lay their eggs. They can do a lot of damage if the problem isn't treated promptly.
We just trapped and removed the last of a family of gray squirrels from the attic of a Macon, Georgia home. As I type these words, the squirrels are already being relocated to their new home in the woods of South Georgia.
Gray squirrels gnawed at the roof trim at a miter joint trying to get into the attic of a house in Cordele, Georgia. They didn't make it into the attic because the homeowner noticed them and called us right away. Our squirrel-removal crew is installing a metal animal barrier over the wood to prevent the squirrels or any other nuisance animals from getting into the house. An ounce of prevention and all that...
The wildlife-removal crew who just responded to an emergency snake-removal call in Cordele, Georgia found a baby snake only about six inches long and about a quarter inch in diameter. Thing is, the baby has a mama somewhere; so the house still needs snake-exclusion, and possibly rodent control. Snakes usually follow rats and mice into homes.
A shed snake skin hanging from the ledge of the foundation near the sill plate under a wooden deck was a clue that a house in Tifton, Georgia had snakes that needed to be removed from the crawl space. As it happens, they also had a mouse problem, which is why the snakes went into the crawl space to begin with. Our wildlife and pest control technicians are removing the snakes and treating the mouse problem.
Raccoons tore a jagged hole through the soffit panel of a dormer where it meets the shingles of the main roof to get into the attic of a Cordele, Georgia home. The wildlife-management crew who are trapping and removing the raccoons from the attic will also repair the damage and seal the house to make it animal-proof.
The homeowner looked down and saw a smattering of bat guano in the insulation between the joists in the attic of his Griffin, Georgia home. Then he looked up and saw a handful of bats hanging from the rafters. We have an inspector on his way to the house to evaluate the problem and draw up a plan for bat removal and exclusion.
Gray squirrels gnawed a hole about the size of a tangerine through the weathered wooden fascia to get into the attic of a house in Columbus, Georgia. One of our wildlife-removal crews is at the house trapping and relocating the squirrels to their new home in the woods, and repairing the damage that they did.
Our inspector peered down between the rafters in the attic and saw a raccoon peering back at him in the attic of a house in Columbus, Georgia. We have a wildlife-removal crew heading out to the house to set traps to remove the raccoons, and animal-proof the house to keep wild critters out in the future.
Jason lifted the edge of the shingle, and lo and behold, there he found a tapered gap between the roof sheathing and the fascia that was how flying squirrels got into the attic of a house in Columbus, Georgia. The wildlife-removal crew that's trapping and relocating the flying squirrels will also install an animal barrier along the edges of the roof to keep critters out of the attic.
Water rot to the bottom of the wooden corner post of a dormer made it that much easier for squirrels to get into the attic of a house in Tifton, Georgia. Our squirrel-removal team is tracking down the source of the water problem and repairing the damage, as well as humanely trapping and relocating the squirrels from the attic.
Squirrels gnawed a hole through the soffit panel of a dormer where it meets the shingles of the main roof to get into the attic of a house in Americus, Georgia. The squirrel-removal crew has installed a temporary funnel trap over the hole to catch the squirrels so they can be humanely relocated.
It looks like the last of the squirrels have been trapped and removed from the attic of an Albany, Georgia home. The squirrel-removal crew is removing the temporary funnel traps and permanently sealing the holes to keep squirrels and other nuisance wildlife out of the attic.
