"At Southern Pest Control Services our company is based on the belief that your needs are of the utmost importance. Our team is committed to meeting those needs. We welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service. Call us today!"

"I am very happy with Southern Pest. After having several other pest companies, including the well known ones come to my home and tell me I had no termites, I almost couldn't believe what they were saying. They hardly spent any time here and disregarded anything I had to say. Fortunately I found Tyler with Southern Pest and he took the time to listen to me and identified the problem. Not only did I have termites but the infestation was massive. They immediately took action and treated my home completely. If you ever have a problem don't waste your time with any other company. I am so grateful to have found Tyler and crew at Southern Pest. Not only are they knowledgeable but great guys as well."

Family owned & operated. While Florida is a great place to live, the warm, moist climate also acts as a breeding ground for unwanted pests. For over 80 years, our Florida pest control company has diligently worked to eliminate nuisance and potentially damaging insect and rodent infestations for Northern Florida homeowners. As a longtime pest control provider, we realize pest control is an ongoing battle; one that requires technical expertise and knowledge of the local pest pressures in order to be the most effective.

"McCalls is the worst lawn care service I have ever had, besides Safari, who were also horrible. My grass is light brown with clovers all in it. I have chinch bugs near my driveway. They did a absolutley horible job. I would never recomend them to anyone."

FAQs for small animal pest control service projects in Gainesville, FL

Self-removal attempts using store-bought traps can cost $50, but require personal time investment and knowledge of proper handling techniques. While DIY methods might work for isolated cases, professionals bring expertise in identifying all entry points, implementing effective deterrents, and safely handling wildlife. 

Consider your comfort level with wildlife management and the potential health risks—armadillos can carry disease—before deciding between professional services or personal intervention.

Most homeowners see initial results within two to five days after professional trap placement, particularly with single-animal situations. However, multiple factors can extend this timeline, including the number of animals present, weather conditions affecting activity patterns, and the complexity of your property layout. 

Properties with established armadillo populations might require one to two weeks of active trapping. Discuss realistic timeframes with your wildlife specialist during the initial consultation to set appropriate expectations.

Filling and repairing burrows adds $75 to $110 per hole to your total project cost. While some comprehensive service packages include minor repairs, extensive landscape restoration requires a separate payment. 

These repair costs cover materials like topsoil, sod, or concrete patching compounds, plus the labor to properly restore the damaged areas. Before finalizing any service agreement, clarify exactly which repair services are included and which will incur additional charges.

While armadillos remain active throughout the year in many regions, scheduling removal during less busy seasons for wildlife control companies might secure slightly better rates. Fall and winter months often see reduced demand for these services, potentially offering more scheduling flexibility and competitive pricing. 

However, the most cost-effective approach is addressing armadillo issues promptly when first noticed, regardless of season, as delaying can lead to more extensive damage and higher ultimate costs.
