Destructive Pests
Controlling and repairing wild hog damage in the U.S. costs roughly 1.5 billion dollars each year. The pests cause many problems for farmers but are also nuisances to homeowners. In addition to spreading disease and degrading water quality, their behavior can cause costly property damage.
Problems Posed by Wild Hogs
Most wild hog damage is the result of the pests' digging habits. These animals wallow in mud and root in the ground to forage for food. The holes they leave behind are unsightly and create tripping hazards for people and livestock. Water-filled wallows may also serve as breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other problem pests.
In addition to issues caused by digging, wild hog damage to properties can include the following:
- Scratches left on fencing, telephone poles, and trees
- Vehicle collisions caused when wild hogs cross roads
- Trampled or uprooted crops and garden plants

These pests spread a variety of diseases and may become hostile if provoked. As a result, the best way to stop or prevent wild hog damage on a property is to contact pest control professionals. The specialists at Critter Control offer dependable solutions to wild hog problems.

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!
