What you are dealing with

What you can see is usually part of it.

Most calls start with a noise or a smell and no idea what is making it. You do not need to know the animal. Tell us where you hear it, what time of day, and whether you have seen droppings or damage.

In Media and the towns around it, the usual suspects are opossums, raccoons, squirrels, skunks and groundhogs. Porches, additions and old stone foundations all leave gaps an animal can work its way into.

Any of these help us work out what is in there.

  • Scratching or thumping in the ceiling or walls
  • A smell that gets worse over a few days
  • Droppings in the attic, garage or basement
  • Chewed vents, soffits or screens
  • Digging under a porch, deck or shed

The scope

What we look at, and what the job usually involves.

What we inspect

  1. The room or part of the yard where you notice it
  2. Roof edges, soffits, vents and chimney caps
  3. Porches, decks, sheds and the foundation line
  4. Droppings, tracks and nesting material that tell us what it is

What the work may include

  1. Working out which animal it is and whether young are involved
  2. Trapping it, or removing it by hand, depending on where it is
  3. Showing you the entry point and any damage
  4. Sealing the opening once the animal is out

What happens next

How the job runs.

  1. Tell us what you notice

    Where on the house, what time of day, and anything you have seen. That is enough for us to plan the visit.

  2. We find the animal and its way in

    We check the spot you describe, then the roof edge, vents, porch and foundation for the opening it is using.

  3. We remove it and close the opening

    We take the animal out, show you what it damaged, and seal the gap so another one cannot use it.

Price and timing

What changes the price.

An animal out in the open can often be dealt with on the first visit. One living inside the house usually needs a trap and a second visit, and we tell you that before we start.

  • Which animal it is and how many
  • How high up and how hard to reach the entry point is
  • Whether there are young to deal with
  • How much sealing or repair you want done

Questions people ask

What to know about wildlife removal.

Do I need to know what kind of animal it is?

No. Tell us what you hear or see and where. We work out the animal when we get there.

Do you pick up stray dogs or cats?

No. Media Animal Control handles wildlife. For a stray dog or cat, call your borough or township office.

Can you get an animal out of a crawl space?

Yes. Opossums and skunks often end up in crawl spaces. We find where it gets in, remove it and seal the opening.
