Why Alpharetta Homes See So Much Wildlife
Alpharetta’s wooded lots, creeks and greenways, including the Big Creek corridor, give squirrels, raccoons, opossums, bats and snakes plenty of cover right next to homes. When the weather turns cold, those same animals look for a warm attic, crawl space or chimney, and a small gap in a soffit or roof vent is all it takes.
Our Cumming-based team is in North Fulton every week. We find how the animal got in, remove it humanely, seal every opening with materials it can’t chew through, and clean up what it left behind, so you are not calling again next season.

Are you the county animal control?
No. We are a private, licensed wildlife control company. Fulton County animal services handles stray or lost dogs and cats. If a wild animal is in or around your home, such as in the attic, walls, crawl space or under a deck, that is what we remove.
How much does wildlife removal cost in Alpharetta?
Every situation is different, so we start with a free on-site assessment and give you a written estimate before any work begins. The price depends on the animal, how many there are, how they are getting in, and any repairs or cleanup involved.
How fast can you get to Alpharetta?
Same-day response is usually available for active problems. Our technicians route across North Metro Atlanta daily from our Cumming headquarters. Call (678) 341-4945 to check today’s schedule.
Do you remove dead animals?
Yes. We locate and remove dead animals from attics, walls, crawl spaces and under decks, then sanitize and deodorize the area. See our dead animal removal page for details.
Will the animals come back?
Not if the entry points are sealed. Trapping alone only treats the symptom. Our exclusion work closes every opening with galvanized barriers animals can’t chew through, and the completed work is backed by a warranty, renewable annually.
