    Squirels in Woodbridge

    We noticed noises that seemed to be emminating from the drain pipes at the second floor eaves of the house. We investigated and found our suspicions to be correct. We phoned Gates Wildlife Control. I had used them at my office before I retired and knew they were good (and humane). The same held true for this instance. They showed up at the agreed time and did the job the way they promised. We are very happy with Gates and would use them again if the need arises.

    Squirrels!

    I just happened to notice a squirrel on the roof darting into a hole under our top floor dormer. Gates Wildlife was quick on the job, assessed the entire roof, found three potential entry points, and dealt with them all. Today we are sleeping soundly knowing the job has been professionally dealt with, and Kieran was a fantastic service agent.

Thank you also for mentioning that "Kieran was a fantastic service agent." I am extremely proud of all of my staff.

    Racoon Eviction and Prevention

    When a chimney cap was damaged, we asked AAA Wildlife to check the flu for animals before installing a new animal cap. They found and evicted two racoons and installed animal protection on all chimney flus and vents. Very fast and they really knew what they were doing.

    Answer from pro:

    Hello, thank you for bringing a very important point to light. It is critical for homeowners to know that before closing an animal entry point it must be determined if animals are present before doing so. We often get called out to remove animals that have been trapped inside the attic after the entry hole has been closed. During the spring mother animals are often locked away from their dependent babies. It is for these reasons that it is important to hire Gates Wildlife to ensure all the animals are out before closing the hole.

    Gates Wildlife found what others could not!!

    One early fall morning I heard loud banging noises coming from under the floor in the mud room attached to the back of our house. this is not a new issue... two previous years I had hired a different company and thought the problem was solved as identified as "mice that were getting in somehow". This time, I wanted to try a new company and found AAA Gates on Homestars. I emailed them and actually had same day visit from David... who by the way was great. Told David the issue and he inspected the outside perimeter and had to agree there was no entry point that he could see. David then said he wanted to check out our neighbour's backyard - who is attached (semi detached). David came back and found the issue... RACCOONS! they were digging from under my neighbour's deck to under my mud room... David placed a one-way door and over the next few days came back to monitor. The raccoons had exited and were not able to come back... it's been a few weeks now and all clear! Wanted to thank Gates' team for their fast response to my issue and the incredible skill to find this issue. So happy to have found this company!!! Really recommend Gates and their service, follow up, and overall integrity!

    Answer from pro:

    Hi Sean and Irene, I love that you mentioned that we were able to find how the animals were getting in when our competition could not. We have a definite advantage in having 36 years experience in the removal and prevention of wildlife. I also like that you mentioned that you recommend us on our service, follow up and overall integrity, three qualities that we take great pride in. Thank you also for speaking so highly about my company and for David's quality work. All the best!

    Wire Mesh Installation / Preventative Measures

    My neighbour had a raccoon problem in their attic and call AAA Gates Wildlife Control. I saw the service truck parked on their driveway and spoke to Chris the senior technician on the call. He was very professional and helpful in providing me with a very reasonable quote to wire mesh all my roof vents as a preventative measure. He completed the work on my property right after finishing up with my neighbour. I even got a discount since the company don't have to make a separate trip out to service my call. Based on the professionalism exhibited by Chris and the excellent work done from what I can observed, I would highly recommend AAA Gates Wildlife Control.

    Answer from pro:

    Hello Mr. Tam, deciding to animal proof your home before you have a wildlife problem is a smart thing to do. It not only gives you peace of mind but it is also less expensive than waiting until they move in. Thank you for complimenting Chris on a job well done and for your great review.

    Wildlife removal

    Thank you Gates for safely and quickly removing the red squirrel that had moved into my attic. I love wildlife. Sharing my home with them however is not an option. He/she or they were safely evicted from my attic quickly and efficiently via a one way door. The weather is perfect for the critter to set up a new home in the great outdoors. Great job, thank you!

    Squirrel removal and exclusion

    Squirrels had chewed their way into the attic of our older house. We had used Gates' service about 8 years ago when we had a raccoon problem, and were very pleased with the result so we called them again. Brad came out the next day & applied some screening and fixed the metal work that was loose to keep them from accessing the wood & installed a one-way door to allow them to escape. A few days later, he closed the door up. It's been quiet since! Great service and a quality job! Would recommend him to anyone!

    Remove squirrels from roof.

    Responded to my email quickly. Came on time. Diagnosed the problem. (A missing brick let the squirrels in.) Explained the plan. A temporary door was put it. The squirrels left. Now the hole is blocked off. Done. Blake was friendly and efficient. I’m happy and sleeping better.

    Great Squirrel Removal Service

    Chris did a great job of assessing the situation, presenting the options, and then getting to work right away. Installed a one way door. solved the problem immediately. Came back to remove the door and make sue the problem was solved to my satisfaction. Can't ask for better service.
