How quickly can you remove wildlife from my home?
Most homeowners can schedule a free inspection with Trutech Wildlife Service for the same-day or next-day. The process to successfully remove an animal from your home or property varies. The timeframe changes based on the animal species, the location of the infestation, and the number of animals present.
Will the animals come back after removal?
Exclusion services are the best protection from future infestations. We match durable materials to keep animals from getting back through the entry points we create.
Animals do have a mind of their own. A determined squirrel, raccoon, or rat can create new entry points along the roof, under soffits, and around the chimney.
Our exclusion services come with a warranty. If the animal gets back inside through our exclusion repairs, we’ll return at no charge. We’ll trap the animal and install new exclusions.
Do you repair wildlife damage and clean affected areas?
Wild animals do not make good house guests. When a raccoon, squirrel, bat, or opossum gets into your house, it can cause damage.
Our animal damage repair services cover the specific damage caused by nuisance wildlife and include:
Clean-up & Disposal
Remove droppings, contaminated materials, and nests.
Decontaminate & Deodorization
Apply sanitization agents to disinfect and deodorize.
Ectoparasite Treatments
Ectoparasite treatments to exterminate pests like ticks, fleas, and mites.
Remediation & Restoration
Repair animal entry holes, block replace soiled insulation.
What do you do with the animals you trap?
That answer depends on your state. Each state has its own laws that dictate what we must do to control wildlife on your property.
In some states, we can trap, transfer, and release the animals. In some states, we can trap the animals, but we can only release them back onto your own property. If you don’t want the animal released on your property, it must be humanely euthanized.
Sometimes we don’t even need to trap the animal; a simple exclusion device (one-way door) can be installed to let the animal out of your home and keep it out.
What guarantees or warranties does Trutech Wildlife Service offer?
We offer a 100% money-back guarantee. If you’re not completely satisfiedwith our work, we’ll offer a full refund and still finish the job.
All of our exclusion work comes with a one-year warranty. If the target animal returns through our exclusion repairs, we’ll remove the animal and re-install the exclusion at no costs.
Do you offer in-house financing?
We offer in-house financing through our parent company, Rollins and RAC. This lets us provide flexible, affordable wildlife removal that fits anyone’s budget.

The primary reason that drives animals into a structure is because a population already exists outside. Now that population may have grown unchecked and unchallenged for too long which forces these animals to seek food, water, and shelter in areas that may be outside their realm of their normal habitat.
Sometimes animals could be chased into a home by a predator, and in other cases land development may displace a population which forces them into locations.
