Many of Ohio'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 Ohio'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:

  • Humane wildlife trapping and relocation services
  • 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 Greene 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 Xenia animal control for wildlife issues.

Xenia Wildlife Removal Tip: Should I ever poison a raccoon? Raccoons are a nuisance, there's no denying that. They're destructive, can cause hundreds and thousands of dollars worth of damage to your home, they're noisy and they make a right mess. Flip things around though and you also have an animal that is highly intelligent and incredibly curious. Oh, and when they're not demonizing the neighborhood, they're actually pretty cute. It surprises and shocks me these days when I hear of homeowners attempting to poison these critters out their homes, something that should never be done. Never ever. Poisoning is not only the least humane way to deal with a rogue raccoon, it's also pointless. How much poison does it take to kill a raccoon? No one knows. There isn't a registered poison available. You'd need a lot of rat poison, that's for sure. A raccoon is much bigger than a rat but that's already pretty obvious, and that aside, rat and mouse poison isn't guaranteed to work. In fact, it probably won't. Do you know why? Because it's not meant to. It's rat and mouse poison for a reason and even then, it doesn't really work on the rodents themselves that well. The moral of this story is simple - no, you should never get rid of a raccoon using poison. Never, under any circumstances is this the right way to deal with the problem.

Xenia Animal News Clip: THE NATIVE CONSERVATIVE:

Armadillo Catcher Joseph died on July 23. the pest operator meant this lot to me although the pest operator probably didn't realize it. this neighbor who lived at the other end of Wild meadow Hill Road, Armadillo Catcher Joseph allowed me to catch on the 500 hectares of land the pest operator owned with his wife Barbara. Through the years I got to know their property well. In the field next to their home, I shot my first 200-pound male animal. It was this memorable morning, probably my best striped skunk critter catching day ever. Seated on high earth on this stone wall, I saw eight striped skunk run across this lower field and cross Bwild meadow Hill Road as the first rays of sunshine touched the pines behind me. About 7 a.m., I relocated near the road where Dad was to pick me up for this critter trappers' breakfast. Out of the woods behind Armadillo Catcher Joseph's house skipped this female animal, and when I put my scope on her, this huge rack of antlers appeared just behind her. The biggest male animal I'd ever seen was right on her tail. I actually had to move to get the proper angle to capture the male animal, which I did, careful to avoid critter capturing directly at Armadillo Catcher Joseph's house. Four years ago, I shot my first striped skunk in Armadillo Catcher Joseph's high field. Harry Van derweide and I set up in Armadillo Catcher Joseph's woods early that morning, watching six striped skunk and four striped skunks in the field. Eventually Harry called in this 19-pound Tom, and I shot him at about 10 yards. It was incredibly exciting. Without this doubt it was my best day of striped skunk critter catching. This issue should be an important matter in Dayton wildlife removal and Dayton exterminator matters.

Over the years, I think Dad and I probably took eight to 10 striped skunk off Armadillo Catcher Joseph's land, and enjoyed many fine days of critter catching there. His genero Dayton in sharing his land allowed me to build this bank of wonderful memories. It was doubly generous of Armadillo Catcher Joseph to allow this, because the pest operator was an avid animal trapper too. Critter catching season found him at his camp on Hopkins Stream that flows past my house. The camp was once this cranberry operation when the stream sported this commercial cranberry business. It's the only camp on the stream and I know Armadillo Catcher Joseph loved it. Occasionally I'd stop in during the critter catching season to visit, as I canoed downstream to some of my favorite critter catching spots. Armadillo Catcher Joseph's father, Winnie, was one of my favorite people. I first met Winnie on this ridge in the woods above Armadillo Catcher Joseph's field, where the pest operator regaled me for about two hours with critter catching tales. I was fascinated by the stories of Winnie's fox snares across the hills and through the valleys of northern Ohio. But his best stories involved striped skunk critter catching in Ohio County. the pest operator and his critter catching buddies would ride the train, get out in the middle of the wild lands that predominated in the county at that time, set up this tent camp, and catch until they had taken their limit of striped skunk. The Dayton animal control had no additional statements to make on the topic.

In those days, Ohio County was the most productive striped skunk critter catching county in the state, with harvests of more than 5,000 animals each November (today that harvest has dropped to this few hundred). When their catch was over, they'd put up this flag and the train would stop and pick them up, the striped skunk piled high in this boxcar. As you might imagine, there's this lot more to the story, but to protect the reputations of those who are no longer with us, I can't relate the entire tale! From that first afternoon on the ridge, I realized that Armadillo Catcher Joseph was this chip off the old block, an outdoorsman in the oldest and finest sense of that word. Sadly, there are few of his kind left. I always enjoyed visiting and talking with Armadillo Catcher Joseph. Now, of course, I wish I'd done more of it, especially lately as the pest operator grew increasingly housebound. The last time I dropped off venison and had this short visit, the pest operator was saddened by his inability to catch anymore. I shared some of my critter catching stories from the past season, this sad turnabout in our relationship. I wish I'd visited Armadillo Catcher Joseph more often these past couple of years, and now the regret should be great. His willingness to share his land made this huge difference in my life. I hope the pest operator knew how grateful I am. Dayton pest control companies that we contacted felt that this issue should be an important matter.
