Added screens to my roof vents and a trap to allow any squirrels to leave my attic.

A few weeks ago, I came home to the sound of loud scratching from the ceiling in our bathroom. I saw some holes in the ceiling and pink insulation had fallen to the floor. I thought the animal that did the damage might be a raccoon that had somehow gotten into our attic and was trying to make a home for its family.

I called GTA and they were able to come the same day. They were extremely friendly and knowledgeable and believed that it was a squirrel that had chewed through the plastic of one of my roof vents. They took pictures of the damage and then explained what the best course of action would be to solve the problem. I didn't feel pressured to do anything that was unnecessary because everything was explained fully and the decision to place screens around my other vents made sense, so that's what they did. They also placed a trap with a spring door to let the squirrel(s) out (if any were still inside the attic), even though the scratching had stopped.

A few days later, I noticed that a squirrel was on my roof spending hours scratching at the screen, or the trap, trying to get back in. The squirrel often peeked over the roof ledge and looked me right in the eyes for several days almost as if to say "Why did you hire these guys? I can't chew through these bloody screens that they added."

I got tired of all the scratching noise from the roof, so I called the GTA guys to check things out a few days before they were scheduled to return to remove the trap and put more screening its place. When they arrived, the squirrel fled my roof and the guys noticed that one of my neighbours had a vent with the plastic/rubber covering chewed off and a big hole showing. I'm glad I had them add screens to all of my vents as they had previously suggested! One of the guys then went into my attic to make sure that there were no unwelcome quests still inside, and thankfully there were not. I asked them to block the hole even though the screen was enough to stop anything from getting inside (and no water could get in from the side), so they added a piece of metal to cover the hole. It wasn't necessary, but it made me feel safer, so they gladly did it for me.

So, if you want competitive pricing, fast and thorough service with absolutely no pressure to add extra things that are not really necessary, and of course, excellent customer service, make sure you give GTA Wildlife Removal and Pest Control a call. You'll be glad you did (only the squirrels or other pests will be annoyed that you called)!

Squirrels in Attic

We procrastinated on this job, and as a result the pattering feet and scratching sounds of squirrels in our attic were emanating down into the bedroom, causing disruption to sleep, and stress.

GTA Wildlife Removal guys (Troy) were great in explaining the scenario and unlike me, were very certain of the likely entry point. I really don't have an opinion one way or another as to whether the "one way exit door" methodology is good or necessary, but boy, was it effective.

Friendly, helpful service, and most of all, 100% effective. It's been five weeks. The squirrels haven't been back.

Wildlife Removal and Pest Control

We had to call them twice now. Both times on time, friendly, helpful, free with explanation and detail information. When I called 2 months after the mouse problem with concerns that mice had returned they came the next day to check. Repaired the raccoon-damaged siding and basement window and were great with our cats -- also very respectful of my concerns about placing poison in the basement because of the cats. On top of that, competitively priced. All together: great service. Would always go back to them.

Squirrel removal

Friday called, Booked Monday appt. When they were on the way to my house, they called ahead of time (especially I was not at home). Once they arrived, they called again and explained to me what they were going to go. Set the animal friendly exit for the Squirrel and have the follow up call the next day. Make sure I understood what exactly going on. Thank you very much for your service.

Wasp nest removal

We had two wasp nests in the yard. I called GTA based on Homestars ratings, and left a message. Kevin called back immediately, and set an appointment just hours later. He found a 3rd nest and took care of it no charge. He told me about the guarantee, and a few weeks later one of the nests had come back - GTA took care of that as well with no charge. They communicated clearly each step, and are very professional and easy to work with. I definitely recommend them.

Pest Removal

This is the second time I've used their services. They are excellent. Fabulous service. Troy was great. He put up a trap with peanut butter. Both times they followed through and came back to leave the mesh only and remove the one way door. Great service. I would highly recommend this company.

pest control (I prefer "pest mngt in humane manner"

The following concerns a 20 your old house in York Region. During the 3 most recent summers I began to have increasingly higher concerns about "pests" , mostly stinging-type ( wasps , bees and other . I suppose the pests regarded ME as the pest ).

The pest population had grown to the point where kids and others felt insecure using the yard. I was worried children and other visitors might be stung , and , worse, could have adverse allergic reactions. I called Kevin of GTA in late summer/ early fall 2009 .

The owner Kevin seemed to have considerable knowledge ; and much experience . He was thorough in his review of the problem areas . I had the good fortune to have found a knowledgeable , thorough and fair person. He referred to some documents and double checked to assure that the solution he had in mind was consistent with rules applicable for our area. I stayed out of his way so he could do his work, but I did ask what he could do on another related pest matter. Kevin corrected me ; he gave me updated info and I was glad to learn I was mistaken about certain other bugs . He educated me : those other bugs did not pose any danger . It was a psychological relief that we had no need to harm or remove the latter .

Kevin arrived well equipped . Having examined the problem areas, he took care of the matter so that visitors and others did feel SAFE , and comfortable in the backyard. He even came back the next day to check status, to take the trouble to review things himself. It saves so much time , energy when we all, customers AND businesses alike, treat each other fairly.

I post this belated comment in case it's useful to others.

This review came in a few weeks ago. I have been unable to respond to this review for some time....as I have been overcome with emotion regarding this particular review. I still cannot convey enough gratitude. I have been lost for words. Until now. .... "We all wish to be accepted by others, to be successfull within our occupations. It is a basic human instint to wish for honesty and kindness from others. However daily we see acts of unkindness and injustice overall from the general public. No one is immune to these negative impulses, we all are quilty of sins. Although when we as humans rise above greed and dishonest behavior, the walls of oppression fall. Only then are we able to grow in a positive direction, together as one. With never ending gratitued I give you my thanks in return. This customer I have met has given me the opportunity to become a better person." Kevin Diamond

Raccoon protection

Had problem with a raccoon that was trying to get back into my attic after I had screening installed by another company. The raccoon was damaging my soffits. Troy came out and removed the screening and installed new screening the way its supposed to be done and also put my soffits back in place. My roof looks much better the way Troy did it. I wish I had called GTA Wildlife in the first place .Troy was great , call him .

Insect contol Roaches

Heavy insect population in a multi level dwelling. Called Kevin On Friday he said he could come the next day. Arrived on time. Was helpful and informative regarding the process. Just 3-4 days later the population was almost all gone. Excellent results in a very fast time. Kevin turned our problem into a memory. Now our home is pest free with a great warrantee.
