Southern Wildlife Control uses a four
pronged service approach to solve your wildlife problem: (1) inspect the premises; (2) recommend a solution to your
particular situation; (3) remove/relocate/exclude the wildlife; (4) repair the damage to prevent re-entry.
Initial inspection is where we determine the actual cause of your problem and what it will take
to correct the situation.
Based on what we find, we will recommend a course
of action which could be one of three actions, remove, relocate, or exclude. We will give you a price for the recommendation
and a price for repairing the damage and removing any feces, nesting material or soiled insulation. Deodorize and disinfection
service is avaliable when needed to eliminate foul wild animal odors.
After your approval
of the plan, we will either exclude (deny entry, evict, prevent re-entry) or we will trap the animals and
remove or relocate them whichever is appropriate in accordance with the laws of the state of Georgia.
Lastly, we will repair any damage the wildlife made in order to gain access to your home.
Repair is important to the process as this prevents re-entry of wildlife. In this step we also do any required disinfecting
or deodorizing that may be necessary to kill any residual spores or scent.
We make every effort
to perform our services so that the client is satisfied that we have indeed solved their problem.
Thanks to the rapidly expanding populations in the middle Georgia area,
natural habitat for wildlife is shrinking. Traditional habitat is being eaten up in the name of progress. Some
wildlife has adapted well to the manicured lawns and small wooded lots, and some animals have even exploited the situation
by thriving because they have no predators and food sources are plenitful. It is not unusual to find raccoons digging
in trash cans, or squirrels nesting in attics, or armadillos rooting in the freshly planted flower beds or sprinkled
lawns. Bats too have lost habitat due to trees disappearing when new developments start. Bats in our area
are beginning to take up residence in our attics, siding, chimneys and even inside our homes. Most wild animals
are just a nuisance but others can be a danger by bringing with them dangerous wildlife borne diseases and even
Rabies.
Our number is 478-737-5438. Ask for Rick Benson. He is available to
discuss your bat problems, squirrel issues or any other wildlife removal and control concerns you have.
