"Called, then came out the next day, at the agreed-upon time. Checked for signs of skunk, esp. under the deck, and reported no signs. Discussed prevention/proofing steps we could take. Offered to leave a trap, but warned that it could also get other animals, including neighbors' pets. Decided against that. Charged only for the 'service call.' I would contact again if future issues."

"We had mice in the basement for months before I finally decided to hire a professional to deal with it. I should have done it sooner, because they came quickly, sealed all the holes and I haven't found any droppings since. Great work. We also hired them to Control or Remove Raccoons. That also was a great service. The technician explained everything and was very courteous. Professional customer service, and the job was done well the first time. I would hire them again."

"I previously rated this vendor with fewer stars because of a couple of issues. They noticed and called to make amends. I was impressed with their diligence in following up and therefore raised my star rating accordingly. Trapping animals that are just being their natural selves is bound to be unsettling for somebody like me. ABC Humane Wildlife demonstrated their sensitivity to my feelings, in addition to addressing the problem of squirrels getting through my wood siding and nesting where they shouldn't be."

"They came in on time, and were very thorough. Bait they've placed is all pet and child safe. They inspected exterior of our home and sprayed repellents in likely nesting areas. Highly recommend"

We purchased an Angie's List Big Deal Wasp and Hornet Preventative Maintenance treatment with Guillen Pest Solutions in May to have our house treated for the summer. We called and spoke with Stephen and he put us on the schedule for the first week of June. He told us that this was the best time to treat, it's when they're starting to build and become more active.

Stephen came exactly when he said he would. He was professional, pleasant and very informative. The treatment absolutely worked all summer around the exterior of my home. In August, we had a hornet nest in a tree in the back and another one in a bush in the front. For $130, Stephen came out, sprayed both nests, waited a day, then returned and removed the nests.

I would highly recommend Stephen and Guillen Pest Solutions. He is reasonably priced and a pleasure to deal with.

FAQs for small animal pest control service projects in Schaumburg, IL

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.
