Animal removal and pest control in Des Moines

We work across Des Moines on everything from a single bat in a bedroom to a full attic restoration after a raccoon family has been in residence for a season. Same approach either way: identify, remove humanely, seal, then clean up what was left behind.

Older properties in Des Moines tend to have several entry points rather than one. Soffit returns, ridge vents, fascia gaps and chimney flashing all fail slowly, and animals find the failures long before people do.

Iowa calls spike every autumn as mice and squirrels move indoors, with raccoons using open chimneys and bats in older two-storey homes.

Call (276) 319-2391 or see everything we do statewide on the Iowa page.

What Des Moines, IA customers say

★★★★★

Skunk under the deck. Barrier trenched in, den cleared, and the lawn grub treatment stopped the digging that was attracting them.

Tom B., Des Moines, IA
★★★★★

Attic restoration after years of rodent activity. Old insulation out, sanitised, new insulation to proper depth. Energy bill dropped noticeably.

Victor M., Des Moines, IA
★★★★★

Scratching over the bedroom for three weeks. They found a chewed soffit return within ten minutes of getting on the roof, showed me the photo, and had the squirrels out with a one-way door in two days.

Wildlife removal in Des Moines: frequently asked questions

Can you tell me what it is over the phone?
Often we can narrow it down from when the noise happens and what it sounds like. But we do not quote blind, because treating a flying squirrel as a grey squirrel wastes your money.
Is the exclusion work warrantied in Des Moines?
Yes. The points we seal carry a written warranty. If something gets back in through one of them, we return and put it right.
There is an animal inside my house right now. What do I do?
Close interior doors to confine it to one room, open an exterior door or window in that room if you safely can, and keep people and pets away. Do not try to corner or handle it. Call (276) 319-2391 and we will talk you through it.
Do you handle commercial properties in Des Moines?
Yes. Restaurants, warehouses, retail, offices, schools and multi-unit housing, usually scheduled overnight or after hours so you do not lose trading time. Documentation is provided for inspections.
How much does wildlife removal cost in Des Moines?
It depends on the species, the entry points and the cleanup. Every Iowa quote is flat and given in writing after inspection. Single-animal removals sit at the low end; full exclusions and attic restorations are quoted after we see the roof line.
What areas of Des Moines do you cover?
We serve the whole of Iowa, including rural counties. If you are not sure whether your address is covered, call (276) 319-2391 and we will confirm in under a minute.
