-
Rattlesnakes are best known for their venomous bites, which are dangerous to both people and animals. The pests are commonly found in deserts, grasslands, swamps, and residential neighborhoods. They range in size from one to eight feet long and attack anyone that invades their territory.
Rattlesnake Noises
The easiest way to detect hidden rattlesnakes is to listen for the sounds they make. The pests produce rattling and buzzing noises to warn predators away. Additionally, they may hiss to alert intruders of their presence.
Dangers & Prevention
Some species of rattlesnakes have potent bites that damage the blood cells, tissues, and circulatory systems of their prey. Others have venom that affects nervous systems and cause shortness of breath, swelling, discoloration, nausea, and weakness. As such, rattlesnake bites require treatment by medical professionals. Homeowners that live near the pests' natural habitats should listen closely for rattlesnake sounds. At the first sign of activity, contact the specialists at Critter Control to remove the snakes.

Best Bat Removal
Brandon was out to please and make out lives easier with out bat situation. Above and beyond of the call of duty and got the job done. Thank you!
BAT POOP CLEAN-UP AND PREVENTION! Bat guano removed from gables. No bats found in attic, so put new screens on all gable vents, as one screen was close to breaking and then bats may have gotten in! Great work in
Tulsa!
Squirrels and chipmunks were in our attic. So we called Critter Control to do an inspection. Their representative climbed all over our very steep roof and found several places where squirrels had entered our attic.
Upon inspection of the attic, evidence of bats was also found. The Critter Control team came on time to completely caulk the entire perimeter of the house and create an exit strategy for the squirrels and bats.
Because
bat droppings can cause histoplasmosis, this also required total removal and replacement of our attic insulation and sanitizing the space. Not a small job in a 1,300 sq. ft. attic! While Critter Control’s cost was high, our homeowners insurance covered most of it. Everyone representing Critter Control was professional, courteous and timely. I would highly recommend them to anyone who thinks they might have unwelcome guests living in their attic
On recommendations from a nearby pest control company, I called Critter Control for suspicious
bat droppings.
Madison came out the same day to do an inspection. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and highly professional. She examined the ‘matter’ that had been scattered on my threshold and thought it was foliage. But she then asked to go up to my attic space where the bats could be roosting. She had to walk up 3 flights of stairs with a heavy ladder. She again spent some time searching all the nooks and crannies and found nothing.
She seemed so interested in her craft, it was truly inspiring to see! She reassured me and is writing up a prevention strategy for my appraisal. She charged me NOTHING!! I am so impressed. We need more Madisons in this world!

We noticed droppings on our brand new deck - we were given their number from our contractor. They came the next day. Brian looked at it and said - yeah, bats!! He then checked every area in our attic and he explained exactly what needed to be done.
He found evidence of a mice infestation, provided a referral and they are helping us as well. Great service, very informative, very professional! We are very satisfied and would recommend them to anyone who has any issues with any critters!
