Franklin County Wildlife Removal Services
We provide wildlife control for homes, farms, rental properties, businesses, and other structures throughout Franklin County.
Squirrel Removal
Hearing scratching, chewing, or running above the ceiling?Squirrels frequently enter attics through roof returns, soffits, fascia gaps, vents, and damaged areas along the roofline. Once inside, they can damage insulation, wood, wiring, and stored belongings. Our squirrel control service can include:
Property and roofline inspection
Squirrel trapping or removal
Identification of entry points
Wildlife exclusion and repairs
Sealing vulnerable areas to reduce future entry
If you're hearing activity during the morning or daytime, especially around the attic or roofline, squirrels are one of the first animals we look for.
Bat Removal & Exclusion
Bats can take advantage of surprisingly small openings around rooflines, fascia boards, vents, chimneys, and construction gaps.Franklin County's combination of wooded land, farmland, older structures, and the Lake Hartwell watershed provides plenty of bat habitat.Professional bat control focuses on exclusion—allowing bats to leave the structure while preventing them from getting back inside.We inspect the structure for primary and secondary openings and develop an exclusion plan based on the building and the colony.
Raccoon Removal
Raccoons are powerful animals capable of damaging soffits, vents, roofing materials, crawlspace access points, and other vulnerable parts of a structure. We commonly inspect for raccoon activity in:
Attics
Crawlspaces
Chimneys
Under decks
Outbuildings
Barns and sheds
After the animal problem is addressed, we can identify and repair wildlife entry points where appropriate.
Snake Removal
Franklin County has extensive rural land, wooded property, creeks, ponds, farms, and shoreline around Lake Hartwell—all excellent habitat for snakes.Most snakes encountered around homes are simply following food or shelter, but finding one inside a house, crawlspace, garage, or business is another matter.Wildlife Patrol provides snake removal and property inspections in Franklin County, GA, including inspections intended to identify potential access points and conditions attracting snakes or their prey.
Wildlife Exclusion & Animal-Proofing
Catching an animal doesn't necessarily solve the problem.If an opening remains, another animal may eventually use the same access point.That's why we place a major emphasis on wildlife exclusion and structural animal-proofing.Depending on the structure, exclusion work may involve:
Soffit and fascia repairs
Roof-return sealing
Vent protection
Construction-gap sealing
Chimney protection
Crawlspace entry-point repairs
Heavy-gauge screening or metal barriers
Sealing secondary wildlife entry points
Every building is different, so exclusion recommendations are based on an inspection of the structure rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.Local Wildlife Control for Franklin CountyFranklin County stretches from the rural communities surrounding Carnesville to Lavonia and the Lake Hartwell shoreline, with Royston serving the southern portion of the area.We provide wildlife removal in and around:Carnesville • Lavonia • Royston • Canon • Franklin Springs • Gumlog • Lake Hartwell • Tugaloo State Park area • Victoria Bryant State Park area.
