Top Opossum Removal Near Ashburn

We had no idea what was digging under our front steps but our front pavers were sinking and nothing my husband tried was working. We called Veteran Pest & Wildlife and they set up a humane trap in our bushes. The first skunk was a surprise and he got it to his truck without it spraying. He said there maybe another skunk and he got the second one to his truck without it spraying too. The opossum he called opportunistic because it probably just went in the empty skunk nest. It took about a week to catch everything. These guys were worth every penny.

They were outstanding from the start. We discussed what was going on over the phone, and after coming out to look the situation over, we decided it was probably a groundhog (possibly a fox as I had seen some recently). A trap was set and the catching began! We (they) got a skunk, a opossum, another skunk, and finally a groundhog. I let the opossum go as they're not relocated (euthanized), but the rest were relocated. FYI, groundhogs are pretty friendly - I fed him while we were waiting for his pickup (it was the weekend). I was not charged extra for the skunks, even though they do cost more if that's thought to be your issue (understandably). I really want to express this - a real friendly HONEST bunch. Helped renew my faith in people.

They are excellent and reasonable. They charge extra for things like wasps and carpenter bees, but they are reasonable and customer oriented. We’ve had them for about 20 years and they are so knowledgeable about everything from opossums to carpenter ants. You can call them on the phone and they’ll be able to give you the answer. We have recommended them to others and they are also satisfied.

We had to call Jeff and the team a few times at my old house for several different reason. Namely possums and mice. Jeff was quick to respond and came out immediately to help, even though we were a little outside of their service area. I will always reach out to Jeff and the team at Envirotreat first.

As are all my dealings with this company -- extremely caring, desire to resolve your concern ASAP, however, they insure they do so in a very safe manor. They take care in insuring that you understand everything and answer all your questions. I have been extremely impressed with every person I have dealt with in this company. Please note that we have had the misfortune to have to deal with mice, opossum, termites and use them also for quarterly sprays and every time they are great!

Called them about removing bird's nest from a vent. Setting up an appointment wasn't as flexible as expected since they had to find a date when they would be in the Germantown area, so we had to wait longer than other companies would have taken. The technician removed the nest and put wire over all the vents, checked the basement and attic for pests, set some traps in the attic just in case, and checked around back for possible entryways. He also pointed out a possible hole where a pipe went into the siding and stuffed it with wire mesh. I pointed out some burrowing below my front step. He said it was probably possums, and put some sort of scent there to repel it. Haven't noticed any further burrowing yet. Seemed pretty thorough, and price was reasonable.

Initially communication was good, Megan was very good to call and schedule the technician to come out and set the trap. But after my wife called early (0830) the next day to report a possum had been captured, the person taking the call was very dismissive and told my wife " Well we are scheduled to come out there sometime today, so we'll pick up the trap then" Originally we were told to call if anything was in the trap and they would come and remove it as soon as possible. When the technician finally arrived after 2:00pm, he had no idea that the trap was occupied. So, if said Gound Hog was around then there was no trap available for almost 6 hours. Then the trap with the possum was dragged across my driveway leaving a nice scratch from the metal cage when it would have been very easy to drag the cage across the grass right up to the truck. Just think a little more communication and professionalism could be provided and my wife should not feel that she is being dismissed when spoken to when all we are trying to do is cooperate. It's not like we are asking for "VIP" status but just would like to feel important enough that they appreciate the business. Since word of mouth referrals are what brings in more business. Updated 8/26/2019: All original discrepencies were addressed and Chris came out to investigate previous concerns. Everything was addressed and taken care of and my wife is very happy to have our GroundHog re-located. Thank you.

They went above and beyond their contract/what was required to make sure that I and the raccoon were safe and happy. The price may seem like a lot but they come out a minimum of two times, fix entry areas, and warranty their work. I think they are competitive with other services (at least the other service I called). I have a three story townhouse with an attic on top of the third story. In addition, my roof is one of those metal roofs so parts of it are extremely steep. Finding anyone willing to go up on it when I paint it every few years is always difficult. I called them on a Wednesday and they had availability on that Friday morning (another service I called could not even come out until Monday). I warned them about the height and steepness of the roof. They said it would be no problem and for them it wasn't. They showed up 10 minutes after they said they would but had called to say they were running a bit late. The owner is young but very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. He wants you to be happy. They had quoted me $390 on the phone and that's what it ended up being. In my case, they had to come out four times and remove an extra grate and did not even hint at charging more . Once to identify the animal, survey the house, and install the one-way door while blocking all other entries to the attic/house. The second time when I called to say I was still hearing the raccoon and was worried she still could not get out. He came back, went in the attic but could not find her so we assumed she had left. Then about 8:00 that night I heard her scratching to get out and eventually saw her clawing at a vent cover in my eaves that hangs out from the bottom of the third floor/top of the second. I called and Tyler was back at my house by 8:40. He found the raccoon and then removed the vent and set up a ladder so the raccoon could get down - he then waited 20 minutes for the raccoon to get up the nerve to go down the ladder (about 20 feet). He came back the next day to remove the one-way door and ensure all entry points were sealed or grated. Some pest control or other services may trap or poison the animal but that won't really solve your problem because other animals can still come in. I would highly recommend Humane Wildlife Conflict Resolution.
