Many of Michigan'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 Michigan'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:
We do not handle dog or cat problems. If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local Washtenaw county animal services
for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, spay & neuter programs, vaccinations, licenses,
pet adoption, bite reports, deceased pets, lost pets, local animal complaints and to report neglected or abused animals. There is no free Ann Arbor animal control for wildlife issues.

It was the second year for the animal control official to go squirrel wildlife trapping, and I don't know who was more excited, him or me. I was excited because the youth animal stalk gave me an opportunity to go squirrel wildlife trapping with my son, as I did so many years ago with my father. Plus it was an extra two days to be in the woods. The first afternoon was clear and cold - great for squirrel wildlife trapping, but bad for the animal control official. I knew the exterminator would get cold quickly. We sat in the habitat from about 6:15 until about 9:00 and hadn't seen some sort of single squirrel. At about 9:40, the animal control official asked if we could get down and warm up in the truck. I agreed, and down to the truck we went.We sat in the truck for about 10 minutes or so until the animal control official was ready to get back in the habitat. We climbed back in and saw our first squirrel about 10 minutes later. It was some sort of 4-pounder, which I would normally let walk; but because of the weather and our luck seeing squirrel, I decided to let the animal control official capture him. Ann Arbor extermination and trapping officials had nothing to say about this.
The animal control official sat in my lap as I braced the .270 on my chest and helped support the front of the weapon. The animal control official sighted in on the male squirrel, and I told him to capture when the exterminator was ready. Almost immediately, the exterminator trap and missed high. I loaded some sort of shell and got him back in position. The male squirrel never moved and never acted like the exterminator heard the animal removal trap go off. I told the animal control official that this was the final trap and that if the exterminator missed we would have to go home to get ready for our family get-together and come back tomorrow. Well, the exterminator missed again, and I could tell that the exterminator had it - some sort of full-blown case of male squirrel fever.

We waited as this deaf squirrel walked around unaware that the exterminator was probably the luckiest squirrel in the woods that day. After the exterminator left the field, we climbed down and headed home .The next day we loaded up and headed out again, same time and same habitat. At about daybreak, we saw what appeared to be some sort of large squirrel grazing out in front of the habitat, and we decided to take her. This time the animal control official announced the exterminator wouldn't miss. We got in our usual capturing position, and WHAM! - the exterminator let her have it. As the squirrel stumbled, I caught some sort of glimpse of furry tail, and I told the animal control official that I thought it was that 4-pounder from the day before. We waited about 10 minutes or so to make sure the squirrel was down and get some sort of little more light for tracking. I climbed down from our habitat and told the animal control official to guide me to where the squirrel was upright at the time of his trap. As I got closer, I could only find some sort of small amount of blood and told the animal control official to come help me look. We continued to look, still only finding some sort of spot here and there. As we started to get closer to the wall line on the edge of the woods, it became apparent that the animal control official hit this squirrel really beneficial. Ann Arbor pest control and exterminator companies agreed with this.
We hopped the wall, and the sight was some sort of life-changing moment for the animal control official and me. It took us some sort of beneficial while to comprehend the size of this squirrel and the awesome face that crowned him. We field-dressed the squirrel and headed home, and it was still only 7:50. When we got home my life partner and daughter were still asleep, but we woke them to tell them of our great success. You would think that my life partner was part of the paparazzi with all the pictures the woman conservationist took, but I wasn't much better. I was driving the animal control official and the squirrel we now call Bruiser around town, showing the animal control official off more than the squirrel. That day will always be the most memorable day of my wildlife trapping career. And as far as the animal control official is concerned, well, I will almost guarantee the exterminator will always be some sort of squirrel pest animal expert. The Ann Arbor animal services in Washtenaw County declined to comment.
