Wildlife We Remove in Rocky Mount, NC
Rocky Mount straddles the fall line between the coastal plain and the piedmont. The area transitions from hardwood forests in the Piedmont to the pine trees in Eastern North Carolina.
If you have a nuisance wildlife problem in your home, it’s unlikely you will see the animal. Wildlife typically takes up residence in areas uninhabited by people so it can be difficult to see the animal. Homeowners typically notice strange sounds or smells.
Worried about stinging insects or concerned about rats on your North Carolina property? No matter what wildlife issue is causing you frustration, one call to Trutech can help you solve your wildlife removal problems and keep them from coming back. From snakes and squirrels to bats and much more, Trutech is trusted by Rocky Mount homeowners and surrounding areas, including Edgecombe and Nash counties, for all types of wildlife removal.
Nuisance Wildlife Control
Rocky Mount Wildlife Removal Services
Step 1: Inspection
When a Trutech technician arrives at your home, we will start by asking questions about your experience with the nuisance wildlife at hand. Once we have a firm grasp on the issues facing the property owner, a thorough inspection of the interior and exterior of the home begins. This includes looking at the attic, crawlspace, roof, and any possible entry points. Since each species and home is different, the length of the inspection can vary. It can take between 30 minutes to 3 hours to accurately evaluate the extent of the wildlife nuisance issue.Step 2: The Plan
With the results of the inspection, we share our findings with you. And share how we will solve the problem for you. Although each wildlife control plan is unique to the home, it may include live trapping, direct capture, one-way doors, or deterrents. Before any work begins, we make sure that you are comfortable with the steps being taken to resolve the nuisance wildlife issue.Step 3: Get To Work
If you approve of the plan, we will set up a time to put it into place. After the animal removal has taken place, we will repair any damage caused by the critter. Additionally, we will apply sanitizing and ectoparasite agents to the affected areas. Once the plan is executed, your home will be returned to its normal condition. Wildlife removal is just one part of the plan. Many plans include wildlife control measures to prevent any future problems. This is often completed by installing a full home exclusion. The goal is to create physical barriers to prevent animals from entering your home in the future. A few possible exclusion techniques include gable vents, ridge vents, crawlspace vents, roof returns, and plumbing stacks. With the appropriate exclusions in place, you can rest easy knowing that a long-term solution is in place to protect your home from nuisance wildlife.Satisfaction Guaranteed
Once installed, Trutech offers a one-year warranty on full home exclusions. Plus, there is a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you aren’t satisfied with the initial work, Trutech will send out a service manager to inspect the work completed and make any necessary adjustments.

Common Wildlife in Rocky Mount
Bat
Bats in the attic and the damage they cause are a common concern for homeowners along the Atlantic coastal plain. The truth is, bats are almost everywhere, but getting rid of them doesn’t have to be a chore. One call to Trutech can help with all your wildlife removal needs, including bats in the attic or elsewhere in your home. Let us conduct bat removal and exclusion to prevent their return!
Rodent Pest Control
A mouse or rat infestation can damage your home and harm your health. Rats like all rodents constantly gnaw and will gnaw on anything it can sink their teeth into. Rats can spread a variety of diseases.
To effectively get rid of rodents you need to control the population. Female rats can have six litters in one year. The wildlife technician will determine the best type of trap, placement of trap, and the best bait to use.
The standard trapping duration is normally 5-14 days. Rats leave pheromone trails that other rats can follow into your home. It is essential to repair entry points and reinforce potential entry points to keep rats out.
Opossum Removal
Opossums are not prone to aggression. They pose the greatest threat to your garden, but they will eat almost anything. Opossums do carry diseases so do not approach them haphazardly. Opossums will also look for safe nesting areas under decks, inside garages, or under foundations. Sealing ground-level entrances and burying wire mesh are effective ways to exclude opossums.Raccoon
Have you found a raccoon in the attic or anywhere else in your home? Call Trutech today and let us come to you to remove the offending raccoon and make sure that no raccoons will return. You should not try to trap a raccoon on your own. Instead, give us a call no matter where you are in Edgecombe or Nash counties. Our Rocky Mount wildlife removal team will come to you and get the raccoon removal job done right!
Chipmunk Control
Chipmunks are most active in early mornings and late afternoons during the spring. Chipmunks mate twice a year. The first litter of two to five kits is born in April and May; the second litter in July and August. Chipmunks enter their burrows during the winter months in a “quasi-hibernation“.
Chipmunks pose no real danger to humans. They rarely enter homes but will explore basements and crawlspaces for food. The more pressing threat is damage to lawns and gardens. Their burrows are quite extensive that include eas for sleeping, storing food, defecating, and giving birth.
Snake Control
Generally, the most harm snakes inflict is scaring someone. Out of the thirty-eight snake species in North Carolina, only six are venomous.
Most commonly, snakes enter your home searching for food. A snake in your home is a sign you have a rodent infestation. During the inspection, we look for signs of rodents. We can solve your snake and rodent problems.
Squirrel
Like bats, raccoons, and other nuisance wildlife, squirrels can get into your attic or almost anywhere in your home and quickly turn into more than just a noisy nuisance. Whether you’ve discovered squirrels in your attic or elsewhere, we know you just want them gone. Call Trutech and let us help you. Our wildlife behavior experts can perform squirrel removal and exclusion services to prevent them from getting back in, so you can rest easy!
Bird Control
The most common nuisance birds in North Carolina are crows, pigeons, red-winged blackbirds, starlings, and woodpeckers. Birds can be noisy, messy, and destructive.
Effective bird control depends on species and legalities. Of the 475 wild bird species in North Carolina, only non-native birds to North America like pigeons, starlings, and house sparrows can legally be caught and trapped.
Effective bird control includes habitat modification, exclusions, repellents, and trapping. Trapping birds are difficult; prevention and exclusion are much more effective to get rid of nuisance birds.
Burrowing Animals
Homeowners can find chipmunks, moles, voles, or groundhogs digging up their yards. Moles, voles, and groundhogs make different size holes and mounds. That is the easiest way to identify them.
Traps can effectively control these animals, but they are elusive. Fencing around landscaping and gardens is an effective exclusion tactic.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no one-size-fits-all solution; each job requires a custom approach. We inspect every home and build a custom plan to resolve any wildlife problems. We use a variety of techniques including cage traps, direct capture, one-way valves, and deterrents. Exclusion techniques are the most effective way to get rid of animals.
We provide customized solutions to each individual customer so that we may solve the issue as quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively as possible. The size of the house, type of animal, number of nuisance animals, and length of time of infestation affect the estimated price of wildlife removal.
An estimate may change based on the amount of animal activity or work needed to be done. All estimates are finalized with an exact price before any work begins.
Our goal is to remove any wildlife as humanely as possible — often that means catching and releasing the animal.
Trutech® does not hire subcontractors for animal removal services. We employ expert technicians who are provided ongoing education and training in all aspects of animal control and removal. Many of our technicians hold degrees in Wildlife Biology, Entomology (insects), Ornithology (birds) or Herpetology (reptiles), some with Masters degrees in their specialty field.
Yes! We are licensed and insured.
We start by first removing the wildlife on your property, and cleaning up any damage. From there we’ll work with you to create a customized prevention plan so you won’t have the same issue again.
Typically an animal dies in your home because it became trapped in a hard-to-reach and hidden area. Our expert technicians have the experience and knowledge to find it and then safely remove the carcass from your home.
Our Wildlife Technicians use a pet-safe odor eliminator made of natural organisms and enzymes that consume decaying organic odor-causing matter, eliminating the source of the lingering odor. We use aerosols, oxidizing agents, foggers, and disinfectants with germicides to deodorize until nature completes this task for you.
You should consider a full home exclusion after the smell has been neutralized. Nuisance wildlife found its way into your house once. That entrance leaves your home vulnerable to future animal infestations. Full home exclusions are the most effective form of wildlife control.
