"Stephanie was an absolute treasure to work with, very responsive, efficient, caring and did an outstanding job. To my family she was a blessing. As soon as I put my request in, she called me right away. She worked with our lawyer and went above and beyond for the job. I don't know about anyone else but if you need raccoon or bat removal or cleanup, I highly recommend you call Stephanie at Wildlife Management and no I wasn't paid for this review. My communication and work with her were totally outstanding."

"REVIEW OF SYRACUSE BRANCH: Utterly horrible. Do NOT hire these people to handle any of your pest control issues. They are extremely unprofessional, lack communication and will charge you a fortune for services they half-a** or simply to not provide AT ALL. It is unbelievable they are still in business. They will keep your card on file and continue to charge you even when you ask for it to be removed/canceled. They show up at random without sufficient notice. They charge hundreds of dollars to look at EMPTY traps and walk around your house. STAY FAR AWAY from these grimy salesmen - because that is what they are!!!"

Little Wolf Wildlife Control LLC is a Pest Control business that specializes in rodent removal and preventative methods. Our team consists of experienced wildlife professionals that work under a Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator license issued directly from the DEC. With that knowledge and over 10 years of experience in the field, Little Wolf Wildlife Control is able to locate exactly how animals are entering your home, and come up with cost effective solutions for removing the animals and preventing them from re-entering.

"I hired this company last October to illuminate mice and squirrels in my basement. In the beginning I thought highly of John and Anthony and thought they corrected the problem but in January the squirrels were back. I called them and their phone number says that the voicemail is full. I wrote to them and asked them to call me. They never contacted me and still haven’t. I keep trying to contact them, but they refused to accept my calls. John told me I would have a guarantee to get rid of them for one year which did not happen. I am totally frustrated that they won’t even have the courtesy to call me back. I would not recommend them at all."

FAQs for small animal pest control service projects in Syracuse, NY

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.
