Services
Wildlife Removal
Our humane wildlife removal service safely evicts nuisance animals like raccoons, bats, and iguanas without trapping or relocation. We use exclusion techniques that comply with ethical standards while preventing re-entry. This method protects both property and wildlife, offering permanent solutions through structural modifications.
Damage Control
We specialize in repairing wildlife-related damage to attics, crawl spaces, and commercial properties. Our team addresses electrical hazards, insulation contamination, and structural weaknesses caused by animals. Repairs incorporate exclusion barriers to prevent future infestations, ensuring safety and long-term property protection.
Prevention Services
Our prevention services use hardware cloth barriers, vent covers, and habitat modifications to deter wildlife. We address attractants like food sources and shelter opportunities through customized strategies. These measures also reduce pest infestations, providing dual benefits for property owners.
Pest Control
Our pest control solutions target rodents and insects attracted by wildlife activity. We use non-toxic methods that align with humane wildlife practices. Services include identifying entry points, sealing vulnerabilities, and implementing deterrent systems to protect properties from secondary infestations.
Animal Exclusion
We install exclusion barriers like Dig Defence to prevent animals from burrowing under foundations. Our techniques include weep hole covers and wildlife-resistant vent guards. These solutions address both immediate problems and future prevention needs, creating long-term protection for residential and commercial properties.

Ned helped us to get rid of our Iguana problem. He made repairs and changes to our captains walk and other areas to make our area not so friendly for them to want to live. He was very knowledgeable and professional and his price was affordable.

I have rated Ned of the Wildlife Whisperers five stars, if they would have had more stars I would have rated Ned higher. Ned had taken down a osprey nest from my roof that was causing me a lot of problems. Thank you Ned

Ned is fantastic. He is compassionate towards animals but gets the job done. We love all critters but, unfortunately, couldn't have them in our attic. He rehomed everyone safely and humanely and no one got hurt. Exactly what we asked for. He closed up all entry points and communicated what he was doing clearly throughout the entire process. He also saved our seawall by noticing an Iguana that was digging into it. Holes were closed up and Iguana moved on to find his next home.
While his job performance should be reason enough to hire him, he is also one of the most interesting people I have met. The stories he has to tell and the knowledge he shares is fascinating. It is a joy to be around him. Highly recommend hiring him over those guys that use traps and poison unnecessarily.
