Wildlife Control & Removal

Our Approach to Pest Removal & Animal Control

Dixie specializes in native species and is highly respectful of the local environment and creatures.

With rapid growth in and around Atlanta, human development has disrupted animal habitats in these areas. This inevitably causes nuisance animals and other pests to come into contact with homes. These critters can pose the risk of causing property damage and unhealthy conditions.

Dixie strives to take a thoughtful, responsible approach to critter control.We recognize the threat that wild animals can pose through disease, annoying noises, and damage to property. Our wildlife technicians apply the most humane approach, but they are also effective in tackling the problem. Sometimes a pest can be removed alive, but in some cases they need to be killed to solve the problem. That's why all our technicians undergo regular on-the-job and classroom training for fast and efficient techniques designed to solve the problem of critter control.

Rat & Squirrel Removal & Exclusion

Exclusion is the effective and durable way to keep rats and squirrels out of your house. Trapping, removal, and exclusion of rodents is the best possible method. Vent and roof openings are often to the most common entry points. If air conditioning or other utilities are routed through aluminum gutterspouting to reach the upper floors, then we will inspect and seal these areas to be sure that squirrels and rats are not able to use these for transportation into your house. These rodents are very mobile, and it is common for squirrels and rats to enter attics using gutters or overhanging trees to get to the roof.

Inspections for Wildlife, Rodents, and Critters

We inspect many areas around your property. Inside the attic, we will check for light around the edges, including roof vents, gable vents and possible roof damage. On the outside exterior we will inspect the gable vents, roof gaps, roof vents, wood damage, dryer vents, ridge vents, brick gaps, crawl space vents, crawl space door, foundation holes, siding gaps, siding holes, garage door corners, and dormer corners.

Our techs can identify numerous pests, including rats, mice, squirrels, raccoons, bats and other creatures. We inspect the shape, size and color of feces as well as footprints and tracks. We are located attic damage to electrical cables, PVC pipes, AC conduits, and insulation, including the tracks on top, borrows, and modification of insulation. In the crawl space, droppings on top of the air conditioning unit, water heater, or spread around the floor as well as insulation damage, burrows and damage to water pipes.
