*Long but helpful*
Last weekend while I had some friends over I noticed there was a pungent smell in my basement which was quite embarrassing as I couldn't determine the source. It was only till around 3am or so that I hear a rumbling and scratching in my basement ceiling and figured that some critter got in. The next morning I noticed the entry point and boarded it up and immediately took to the yellow pages. I was about to call a local Co to complete the service but something urged me to look for reviews and hence brought me here. The reviews on the initial Co was poor to say the least, then I came across "AAA Gates." The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and even though it was slightly more than the competitors, I felt confident with my decision to hire them....and I'm glad I did.
Jenn at customer service was able to book me an appointment the next day and when Brad arrived, he was punctual, friendly, informative and really put me at ease. From what I described it appears I had a Skunk rooming with us and it dug up my backyard. Brad explained how he was going to coax the critter out then return in several days for a follow up. While Brad was proofing my home, that's when we actually had a heavy snow storm here in Toronto and he wasn't phased one bit (which resonated with me as I was a Dispatch Manager for over 60+ HVAC techs/installers) As described within 2 days I could tell that the critter had left, there was no more scratching and clawing at night, my dog wasn't barking at the ceiling and the smell was even beginning to fade. Brad did return (on time) as promised to complete the process and services came with a 1yr warrantee!!
I hope that I never have to call again for wildlife control, but if I do you better believe it would be AAA Gates and Brad. Remember, "you get what you pay for!"

Great service, friendly staff! Prompt response; very helpful in explaining prevention. Very safe in the handling of the animals. I will continue to recommend AAA gates wildlife control to my neighbours.

recently moved into a home. soon realized that there was an animal in the attic. Gates came within 2-3 business days, and gave their honest opinion on how to fix the roof/who to call before they could come out again to give a quote and get rid of the squirrel problem. they finished the job, and came back out once more after at our request to ensure that the squirrel really had gone.

update: we kept hearing the squirrel and gates came out multiple times to say there was no way for a squirrel to gain access. they stated it might be mice. however, my husband eventually found the hole where the squirrel was coming into the house. gates then came and finished the job, they had found 2 more holes where the squirrel was coming in. hopefully this is the end of it.

Contacted Gates when my neighbour noticed a whole family of raccoons emerging from under my deck, which covers the entire backyard. I was expecting a big dollar amount to clear them out and prevent them from coming back in, but the estimate provided by Joel was very reasonable. Scott did the work, which involved digging around the perimeter of the deck and installing heavy gauge screening. I was particularly concerned about work being done in the neighbours' yards but all digging was done very carefully and with respect for the property. I hope I don't need to call them back but will not hesitate to do so.

I've called on AAA Gates Wildlife control a few times over the past few years. I seem to have a backyard that animals find to be welcoming. I'm pleased to say that each time Gates has come to the rescue. I've recommended them to friends and family due to their knowledge, service levels and approach. A great help as both times I've called I was quite nervous but I felt relieved as soon as i spoke with the Gates team.

Gates is significantly more expensive than some wildlife removal companies, but they are one of very few that seem to be insured. I get very nervous when I see someone the age of my sons going up on our high roof. With Gates, there is at least some peace of mind in that their workers are covered.
A few years ago, we called Gates when our neighbour thought squirrels were entering on our roof. The workers determined that they weren't entering and didn't charge us anything.
Recently, after we actually saw the bushy tail disappear under the soffit, Dan from Gates installed a one-way door and screening for the base price. He meshed up another vulnerable area for an extra charge (as expected). When he returned to seal up the original entry, we asked him to check a hidden, vulnerable junction that we had just spotted from our balcony on the other side of the house. He checked that and meshed it off with no extra charge. His service was prompt, friendly and professional. When there was a delay, he called. I hope the problem is resolved. Time will tell. But, if there is any further problem, my hunch is that the company would be helpful and forthcoming.

I was having a problem with a raccoon using my second floor balcony as a latrine. I called AAA Gates and Brad came to assess the situation exactly when promised. We discussed possible solutions and their merits (or lack of). It was decided to try and make the adjacent arbour less raccoon friendly so that it would be very difficult for the raccoons to get up onto the balcony. The installation took place exactly when promised and was very neatly done. They even returned at my request to relocate some of the equipment. Since the installation was completed, the raccoons have found another place to do their business and we can now enjoy our balcony without a disgusting mess. AAA Gates was professional and delivered a solution that worked at a reasonable price. I highly recommend them!

I called Gates Wildlife last week to check out potential raccoon entry points on our roof. We met this morning with Joel - he was very polite and courteous and he did a quick and efficient inspection (and luckily we do not have raccoons in our attic!).

Overall, our communications with Gates Wildlife were very professional and they were able to accommodate an early morning appointment so as not to disrupt our work day.

We had squirrels in our roof. The technician, Jamie, came promptly and kept at it until the problem was solved.The holes by which the squirrels were entering our house were hard to find but after a number of attempts, the problem seems to be solved! There was one minor miscommunication with the staff that was quickly dealt with in a prompt and professional manner by Jamie and Jennifer at the office. It was so nice to deal with a company with good customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to refer them!
