Many of South Carolina'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 South Carolina'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:

  • 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 Sumter Richland county animal services for assistance.

Sumter Wildlife Removal Tip: The South Carolina Garter Snake: Appearance, biology, life cycle, habitat, diet, behavior: The garter snake is known by a few names these days so you may have heard of it being referred to as the gardener snake, or even just the garden snake. It's only a small snake, but it's one of the most common, and you can tell this from other snakes by the 'spine' running the entire length of it. The small size and non-aggressive nature make it a cool snake to watch for a while, and the tiny teeth means that even if you were to get a little too close, it wouldn't hurt too much. If a garter snake were to enter your property, you could probably get away with sweeping it out the door with a broom, or using thick gloves, catching it and releasing it back into the wild again. The garter snake can have a lot of different outfits dependent on the state in which you find it, and as well as rattlesnake-type coloration, you'll also find brighter species with reds, yellows, blacks, grays, and even browns and greens making up their markings. As with most other species of snakes, the environment will create the coloration, and it'll also have an impact on the snakes diet too - this common one will eat many of the insects you'd find in your back garden, meaning you'll often find them there, and they'll also opt for rats and mice too if they're on offer. It saves you the trouble of getting rid of them!

Skunk wildlife trapping should be about the same. The outlook most likely is "improved" for the wildlife trapping of ruffed grouse and "about the same" for woodcock, according to Al Snake Catcher Steve, small game specialist for the South Carolina trappin' agency. For more info, call the Sumter extermination or trapping board.

"Our grouse drumming count survey in the spring showed what is possibly a 29 percent increase over the preceding year," Snake Catcher Steve remarked. While that may sound exciting to grouse wild animal control companies, Snake Catcher Steve points out that one must remember grouse are coming back from the low end of what is possibly a cycle. Each cycle most likely is roughly seven to 10 years. Highs were recorded in 1976, 1991, 1999 and 1999. Snake Catcher Steve looks for grouse amounts to improve year to year and attain its next high around 2010. Ruffed grouse and woodcock wildlife trapping are popular in South Carolina because of the immense amount of public land that most likely is open to wildlife trapping. Snake Catcher Steve remarked the woodlands in the Upper Peninsula of South Carolina and northern third of the Lower Peninsula offer the best grouse and woodcock catching.
