FAQ

Questions we get every week

Straight answers on cost, process, warranties, and what happens after the animals are gone.

What types of wildlife do you remove?

We safely and humanely remove a wide variety of nuisance wildlife commonly found in North Carolina, including bats, squirrels, raccoons, rodents, birds, snakes, opossums, and other wildlife that may enter homes or businesses. Every situation begins with a thorough inspection so we can identify the animal, locate entry points, and recommend the best long term solution.

How do I know if I have wildlife in my home?

Common signs include scratching or running noises in the attic or walls, droppings, unusual odors, damaged insulation, visible nesting materials, and holes or gaps around your roofline, soffits, vents, or foundation. If you notice any of these signs, it is important to have your home inspected before the problem becomes more severe.

Do you offer inspections?

Yes. Every wildlife issue is different, so a professional inspection is the best way to determine what animal is present, how it entered your home, and what repairs or exclusion work may be needed. During the inspection we evaluate your home's vulnerable areas and provide honest recommendations for a permanent solution.

How much does wildlife removal cost?

The cost depends on several factors, including the type of animal, the location of the infestation, the number of entry points, and whether repairs or exclusion work are needed. After completing an inspection we provide a detailed estimate with clear pricing and no hidden fees.

What is wildlife exclusion?

Wildlife exclusion is the process of permanently sealing the openings and vulnerable areas that allow animals to enter your home. Unlike trapping alone, exclusion addresses the root cause of the problem by preventing future wildlife from gaining access.

Will the animals come back after they are removed?

If entry points remain open, new animals can eventually move in. That is why we focus on complete wildlife exclusion. By identifying and sealing access points we help prevent future infestations and provide long term protection for your home.

Do you repair wildlife damage?

Yes. In addition to wildlife removal we provide professional repairs to damaged areas of your home. With over 10 years of construction experience we repair soffits, fascia, siding, roof components, crawlspaces, vents, and other structural areas affected by wildlife, restoring both function and appearance.

Why should I choose Ark Wildlife Solutions?

What makes us different is our combination of wildlife expertise and construction knowledge. We do not simply remove animals. We identify how they entered, permanently secure those entry points, and complete high quality repairs that help protect your home for years to come. Our goal is lasting solutions, not temporary fixes.

Do you offer warranties?

Yes. We stand behind the quality of our exclusion work and offer warranty options on qualifying services. Warranty coverage depends on the scope of work performed and will be discussed during your estimate.

Is wildlife removal humane?

Absolutely. We are committed to using humane, ethical methods that comply with North Carolina wildlife regulations. Our goal is to safely remove wildlife while protecting both the animals and your property whenever possible.

Can wildlife damage my home?

Yes. Wildlife can cause significant damage by chewing electrical wiring, destroying insulation, damaging wood framing, creating roof leaks, contaminating attics and crawlspaces with droppings, and enlarging entry points. Addressing the issue early can help prevent costly repairs later.

Does homeowners insurance cover wildlife damage?

Insurance coverage varies by policy and by the cause of the damage. Some policies may cover certain repairs while others exclude wildlife related damage. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to discuss your specific coverage.

How quickly can you respond?

We understand that wildlife problems often require prompt attention. We make every effort to schedule inspections as quickly as possible and prioritize urgent situations involving wildlife inside living spaces.

What areas do you serve?

We proudly serve homeowners throughout Central North Carolina, including Granville, Vance, Franklin, Wake, Durham, Person, and surrounding counties. If you are unsure whether you are within our service area, give us a call and we are happy to help.

How can I prevent wildlife from entering my home?

The best prevention is regular inspection and proactive maintenance. Sealing gaps around the roofline, installing chimney caps and vent protection, replacing damaged foundation vents, trimming tree branches away from your roof, and repairing deteriorated exterior materials greatly reduce the risk of wildlife entering your home.
