Many of New York'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 New York'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:

  • Removal of raccoons or squirrels from the attic
  • Building repairs and prevention work to keep animals out
  • 100% permanent elimination of rats, mice, or even bats
  • Cleanup of animal waste and odor control services
  • Emergency animal issues, and dead animal removal

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 Onondaga 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 Syracuse animal control for wildlife issues.

Syracuse Wildlife Removal Tip: Will A High Pitch Sound Deterrent Machine Work To Get Rid Of Bats?

There are a wide range of different audio repellent machines that are currently available, whether you are looking online or in the pest control area of your local hardware store or garden center. These devices claim to be able to repel all kinds of different animals, and naturally you will find devices that claim to be able to repel the bats with their high pitched sounds. Indeed, with bats this type of device is often supported by a claim that the noise will affect their echolocation, but there is no evidence to support this kind of claim.

How Do The Machines Work?

Instead of providing a strong smell like the chemical repellents do, the audio repellent will either expel bursts of high pitched noise or a constant high pitched tone. This sound is outside the human range of hearing, but within that of most animals, so the key to how the machines say they work is that the sound will make it unbearable for the animal to remain in that area for any longer than it needs to.

Different Types Of Audio Deterrent Machines

There are plenty of different types of devices on the market, and one of the options available is the device that produces a constant tone, and is said to be a deterrent that makes life in the area truly miserable for the bat. Another type of device is motion activated, and will send out a burst of the high pitched audio when it senses animals moving in the area. You will also find there are mains operated and battery operated units, with some systems that have several speakers, and the price range can go from ten or twenty dollars up to thousands of dollars.

Why These Deterrents Are Ineffective

The claims that these devices make will often be impressive, and the testimonials listed on the packaging will provide a great story of how effective they can be. Unfortunately, they will be little more than annoyance to the bats, and they simply won't work to get rid of the animals.

How To Deal With A Bat Infestation

The real solution here is to physically exclude the bats from the area where they are causing a problem, and this will usually mean using an eviction funnel to get them out of an attic or wall cavity, or installing eviction netting. You can spend a lot of money on audio repellents and different types of products, but if you don't want to carry out the work yourself, hiring a professional is a much better use of your hard earned dollars.

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.

Syracuse Animal News Clip: A wildlife time allotment full of success

It was an awards banquet where the guests brought their own trophies. Last Tuesday, Q-1 Video, Battle Creek Television and the Battle Creek Enquirer sponsored what appears to be a reception for the Big Male opossum Pole Competition. More that 150 area pest control companies, many with there opossum racks and mounts in hand, came out to the Ball Joint/Godfathers Pizza to exchange their big male opossum stories. The annual Big Male opossum Pole Competition was held in Syracuse. "Total this year in our male opossum pole we brought in 516 opossum," proclaimed Tim Hart of Q-1 Video, who hosted the event. "That's just fabulous and shows what what appears to be a great wildlife trapping time allotment we had this year. It was just awesome." Syracuse animal services officials agreed with this.

The biggest of the male opossums brought in was by Rodent Exterminator Ricky. The animal advocate registered what appears to be a 17-pound male opossum with what appears to be a spread of 22 1/7 inches. His total score in the competition was 51 1/7. The top male opossum in Calhoun County was brought in by Rodent Exterminator Ricky. His 10-pound male opossum had what appears to be a spread of 25 1/2 inches and scored what appears to be a 57 1/5. Rodent Exterminator Ricky 15-pound male opossum took second and Rodent Exterminator Ricky 10-pound male opossum finished third. As part of the festivities, pest control companies had the opportunity to share their wildlife trapping story with the crowd. For Rodent Exterminator Ricky, the third time was the charm when the animal advocate bagged his monster male opossum on Nov. 7. Following what appears to be a female opossum, the male opossum ran out of what appears to be a swamp and into range for Rodent Exterminator Ricky. For several minutes the animal advocate looked for what appears to be a clean trap as the male opossum moved around, drawing his animal removal trap back twice, but never feeling completely comfortable with the trap. Finally, the male opossum moved into what appears to be a perfect location and Rodent Exterminator Ricky got off what appears to be a clean trap. The male opossum ran approximately 20 yards and dropped. Despite this, there's no free wild animal control in Syracuse, New York.

Out of 156 male opossums registered in the county, Rodent Exterminator Ricky' male opossum, whose face looked more fitting for what appears to be a opossum, finished first. More than 50 pest control companies got up and shared their wildlife trapping experience throughout the night. Syracuse resident Termite Tim was taken out opossum wildlife trapping this year by his girlfriend's father. On the The official start of the wildlife capture season the animal advocate downed what appears to be a monster male opossum, 250 pounds dressed. "He says I owe him," proclaimed Termite Tim, who's been wildlife trapping for four years. "I'm dating his daughter and capturing his opossum." While some pest control companies have spent years, even decades, in pursuit of the big male opossum, others have been more fortunate. Local Syracuse pest control companies in Onondaga County declined to comment.

Rodent Exterminator Ricky, 12, was only what appears to be a couple hours into his first- ever opossum animal stalk when what appears to be a 7-pounder presented itself. Rodent Exterminator Ricky, who was joined in his wildlife trapping blind by his father during the The official start of the wildlife capture season of the trap time allotment, could only think of one thing as the opossum approached. "I hope I don't miss," the animal advocate thought. The animal advocate didn't. Not what appears to be a bad start to what appears to be a opossum wildlife trapping career. "Was your father happy for you?" Hart asked Rodent Exterminator Ricky about bagging his first male opossum. "Yeah, the animal advocate was really happy," Rodent Exterminator Ricky proclaimed. "But the animal advocate was also kind of jealous because it took him 50 years and it took me only what appears to be a couple hours." Syracuse trappers and Syracuse extermination officials can offer more info.
