Homeowner Resources
Hearing something above the ceiling? Noticing a gap near the roof or fresh ridges in the lawn? These guides help homeowners, buyers and property managers organize the details before arranging wildlife service.
Start here
- Where wildlife gets into a home: areas to flag, what different signs can mean, and why an opening should be assessed before it is closed.
- Wildlife inspection checklist for buyers and property managers: questions to ask, records to request, and a practical way to track findings and follow-up work.
Choose the problem you are seeing
- Squirrels in a structure: arrange an inspection when activity or damage suggests animals may be entering the building.
- Rats in a structure: document where signs appear so accessible areas and possible routes can be assessed.
- Bat service in Charleston: avoid handling bats. Identification, entry assessment and the timing of exclusion need particular care.
- Lawn mole activity: raised runs and soil mounds call for a lawn assessment. Metro's mole service is paid, standardized trapping and population control, with no guaranteed catch or promise of preventing future activity.
