We had a raccoon problem and Barnes got the job done. I have to give Zach and Justin props for their dedication and great customer service. This company will get it done! Very professional and easy to work with.
Barnes Wildlife Control did an excellent job catching and quickly responding to my text messages when 3 squirrels were trapped at 3 different times. Nice satisfied that all critters were gone, they repaired the holes in the wood so that no other critters will come in our attic. You can’t tell that there were holes in the wood. We would highly recommend Barnes!
They came out and removed 1 racoon the second day & 1 groundhog the 3rd day after trap was set. Also added heavy wire screen under deck . Perfect job & reasonable price. They know wildlife & provide good results.
Barnes Wildlife had a lot of great reviews so I contacted them to come out and give me an inspection and estimate. We live just outside Enon Ohio. Our 3 story home has wood siding that has acquired about a dozen woodpecker holes over the years - some near the size of tennis balls. And of course all are near the top of the roof line. These holes have been home to nesting birds, a swarm of honey bees (that was fun) and just recently both flying squirrels and gray squirrels. The Mrs had had enough - thus the call to Barnes.
Jacob was out for the inspection 2 days later for the inspection and estimate. He advised the work could be completed using 40 foot ladders. I have never worked from a 40 foot ladder nor will I ever. I scheduled the work after receiving the more than fair estimate.
A week later the Barnes crew was out. They removed (trapped)
several squirrels from the attic and released them away from the house. The repair work on the holes was so good you couldn’t even tell where they were. In short the Barnes crew would receive a 10/10 score for such a great job.
If you need professional, prompt, courteous folks for wildlife issues or wildlife issue repairs there is no one better than Barnes Wildlife!

I love the service and results from the work of Barnes Wildlife Control in treating the rodent problem I have in my home. Two years ago, i used another company, with whom I was dissatisfied and very disappointed with their work, lack of honesty, work ethics and service. I feel blessed to have found Jacob and his Barnes Wildlife Control company. For the past several months, I have received excellent service in getting rid of and controlling the rodents in the two attics in my home and two crawlspaces in my basement. I am impressed with Jacob and his crews' progress made is solving my rodent problem. I just wish I would have used Barnes Wildlife Control initially to address my rodent problem. Barnes is definitely a knowledgeable, reputable company with excellent work ethics and integrity. Barnes is a family-owned company which takes a personal interest in their clients and works hard to solve their client's wildlife issues. I remain

Zach with Barnes Wildlife came by today and set a trap to catch a groundhog who took up residence under our shed. Zach was prompt, polite, friendly and efficient. He gave thorough information and welcomed our questions. He was clear about pricing and offered multiple options regarding pricing and available peripheral services. 10/10 recommend calling Barnes Wildlife for your wildlife control needs! Ask for Zach!
Barnes helped solve a significant bat problem that I encountered several months after purchasing my first house. They responded promptly to my desperate plea for help:) and did a thorough job sealing my home. Wade was particularly helpful in answering my questions. He went above and beyond, thank you so much!
Barnes Wildlife does an awesome job. I have used Barnes 2 times. I would recommend Barnes Wildlife for your needs!!!!!
We had a severe infestation of bats in the attic area of our church. Barnes Wildlife did a fantastic job of removing the bats safely, inserting one-way valves, removing soiled insulation, installing new insulation, and making sure that they could not get back in to the attic. Since then, Barnes has come out yearly to make an inspection in the fall to make sure that the bats have not returned.
The personnel were friendly, professional in their approach to the issue at hand, and cleaned up after their work. As a church trustee, I would recommend them for any wildlife control issues!

We had some starlings causing a ruckus in our attic. They had been nesting in the exhaust duct for our bathroom fan. We didn’t hear them until they broke out of the duct and trapped themselves in our attic.
Barnes Wildlife Control did a wonderful job. Hunter & his partner were fantastic to work with. They were prompt, tidy, courteous and humanely removed the animals from our attic. They cleaned up after themselves as well!

Barnes Wildlife Control is the only company I call for pest or animal problems. They've dealt with raccoons, wasps, and mice for me over the years and in each case, their service was excellent. Currently they installed bait traps around the foundation of my home to deter mice from invading. What I love best about Barnes, is they suggest a mitigation strategy, explain how it works, and tell you about maintenance required. I feel as thought I understand what's going on and how the situation will be prevented in the future. As someone new to rural living, they are a Godsend.
One day I noticed insulation on my deck. When I figured out where the insulation came from, I noticed a hole in the corner of the roofline and a dormer. Living in the woods, I knew I had an animal in there. I called Barnes, and they responded quickly and set a trap. They took the time to explain what was happening, why, and how they would resolve the issue. Within a couple days the raccoon was trapped, and I called Barnes to let them know. They were out within a couple hours. They secured the opening after removing the raccoon, and came back a few days later to permanently seal the opening, and prevent future infestations.
I highly recommend this company. Very nice and professional employees who fixed my problem quickly at a fair price!

Called Barnes Wildlife Control out for a visit due to a raccoon that had been at our property for several months. Jake was the gentleman that we worked with and he was amazing. He was friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable with the issue we were dealing with. And most importantly, he was responsive, making the process easy. He was able to come up with a solution and the raccoon was caught and removed from our property. Would highly recommend Jake and this company!
Barnes Wildlife Control did a fantastic job and was extremely thorough in removing a family of bats from our attic this month. Removing bats is a fairly labor intensive ordeal and all the staff members were extremely helpful throughout the process.
They explained all the steps that would be performed, such as sealing all the tiny crevices the bats could use to get back in, attaching one-way exits for them to permanently leave, doing a complete clean out of the attic to neutralize any biohazards, and replacing the soiled insulation with fresh material.
They did exactly what they stated and on schedule, with great customer service and attention to detail. We are so happy to have our house restored to the way it should be and would definitely use them again in the future.

Barnes Wildlife Control provided a quote for damage to soffit and box end caused by squirrels that was a fair price. Colton did the repair work, sealed with waterproof paintable caulk and even sealed a small area that was letting in rain. Colton was pleasant to work with and very informative. Highly recommend Colton and Barnes WC for any animal damage to your home or business!
We had 2 chipmunks that were tunneling through our yard. We called Barnes Wildlife Control and they were out to set traps within 3 weeks. They caught 2 chipmunks and a skunk and we’re there to haul them off the next morning. We were charged a fair rate for each animal caught. We really appreciated their timely service and recommend them to anyone who needs wildlife control!
Chris was my technician, he is very kind, pleasant, professional, informative, and thorough, he made sure I understood the process and explain how the trap works in catching those annoying fur babies (raccoons), I recommend Barnes Wildlife Control, they will definitely be my go to for rodent control. Thank you for your service!
Everyone at Barnes Wildlife Control is nice, professional and knowledgeable. They explain what needs to be done to resolve your critter issue, and they spend time to answer your questions. We have the utmost respect for them and confidence in their work.

Superb customer service! Answered my quote on a Sunday, followed up, and delivered. Fixed the issue and went the extra mile to do things beyond what was expected. If you need pest removal, you won't be disappointed with this company.
When we thought we had a raccoon in our attic we called Barnes, Hunter came out promptly and did a complete assessment. He could not find an entry area that it could’ve come into the attic and it wasn’t in the chimney. He did see droppings around the chimney, so he set a trap on the roof. He answered all the questions we had. Since we knew that we needed chimney caps put on we also had them give us an estimate for them. He checked back frequently, we had thought the raccoon had left because we hadn’t heard it. When he came to install the caps, while getting ready to put the one on the large chimney...guess who popped out to check on what they were doing! So, they stopped and set a trap for it. One raccoon was caught and after a few weather delays the other cap was installed. The final bill was exactly what the estimate was. All the people we dealt with the company were pleasant and professional. Hunter kept us updated on what was going on and check back w us frequently. I would highly recommend Barnes and will we use them in the future if the need arises.
Amazing! Raccoons had decided to invade my attic. Barnes came out quickly and not only got rid of the raccoons but also repaired the entry point and cleaned out the mess the raccoons left in my attic. Very friendly and professional!
Always can count on them for great service and workmanship. They do more than just assist with wildlife control to make your home safe. Assisted in completely remodeling the bathroom. They are usually my first call for any critter issues or home projects. Reliable, professional, friendly and fair priced. I would highly recommend them
Barnes Wildlife Removal was quick in returning my phone calls. We had bats in our attic and one entered our living room. They came out and put on the bat valves. They did all of the necessary repairs, replaced the insulation, cleaned up & sanitized the area. We had one more bat enter our living room that we couldn’t catch. They were great in coming back to help us. They found & repaired the new entry point. They are wonderful to work with and do everything they can to solve the problem. The staff is amazing to work with & knowledgeable in the construction required. They know what they are doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone with a bat problem.
I ordered firewood from Mr. Barnes. His communication was excellent, the value was good for what was paid, and the young man who delivered was just as polite and professional as could be. All in all a great transaction and I will do business with him again. I already recommended him to my FIL for the same service.
Scary situation with a bat in our home. Kevin came out early on Father's Day after we called. He removed the bat and then later Barnes sealed our home and provided a one way exit for the bats that may have been left. Professional, polite, personable and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Barnes to anyone.
Several years ago we contacted Barnes Wildlife Control because we had some critters in our attic. They were able to take care of the little intruders and made sure that they could not get back into our home again. Since then, we have used Barnes Wildlife for many different jobs around the house. Wonderful Christian business. They are the first business we contact when we have a repair needed around the house. I would recommend contacting Barnes for any household repair.
I have used a different company in the past and was VERY dissatisfied. I'd keep the critters before I'd use that previous place again. Barnes Wildlife Control exceeded my expectations!!!! They arrived early - and waited patiently for me to arrive. They did the work quickly and neatly and immediately. Gave me information about what COULD be potential problems in the future without pressuring me into more work today. Jacob Barnes was very personable, and I can't even whine about the cost! I'd definitely call them again! (And I'm very hard to please!)
Your crew is unprofessional and I couldn't be happier to have fired you. Definitely the kind of place that needs to purchase positive reviews, spend five minutes talking with them and you'll understand.
Hilariously the ownership tries to claim this review is spam. Even funnier is that Barnes has had 60+ reviews posting within a week of each other and who all miraculously needed pest control services in the middle of a pandemic. Did you purchase them, farm them from your friends, or what? Those are definitely spam.

We had a great experience with Barnes taking care of our woodpecker issue. The woodpecker was attempting to make a home in our siding and Barnes quickly repaired the damage and posted deterrents that have worked amazing. They were professional, courteous, and even did a full inspection of the house for other pest problems. Would recommend them to anyone.
The best in the Dayton area! They never gave up removing 2 female raccoons from our chimney. Josh will never say die. They also replaced our chimney caps. I can't even tell you all they did to remove my problem . Thanks guys
Barnes is awesome. Helpful and knowledgeable they have helped me and my parents with pest removal and especially, skunks. I've recommended them via word of mouth before and people have always been happy with them.
The Barnes Wildlife Control took care of all of my business and personal residence needs quickly. They were easily worth the prices they charged. I highly recommend them.
Barnes Wildlife Control is a Family owned business. They make each person they deal with personal, by listening to their customer and treating them like a friend. Excellent customer service, from the time you call in to the professional advice and service you will receive. The company has the knowledge and the experience to keep any kind of nuisance animal out of your home or business. Jake Barnes has employed my son the last 2 years of high school and has been nothing short of a great mentor for him, from guiding him to use his engineering skills to coming and watching him play football on Friday nights. Barnes works hard at being a community driven company, by going the extra mile to make you feel like your family. If you want a company that’s going to listen to you and treat you and your home like they would their own family. I recommend you give Barnes a call.
The Barnes Wildlife Control team always takes care of our issues no matter the season. We've called them out for both outdoor/indoor critters and pests. Always professional and informative. I like it when they explain what's going on and why. Trustworthy and highly recommended!!
Our family has used Barnes Wildlife Control many times. They are always professional and provide friendly service. They are extremely knowledgeable and work very hard to make sure the job is done right. They are the best in the business. I highly recommend them.
Barnes Wildlife takes wildlife control seriously. Their employees are dedicated and prompt. They are currently in the process of inventing new products to make the process of pest elimination even more efficient. They will take your needs seriously and do their best to help you become pest-free.
I recently hired Barnes Wildlife to perform some home improvement projects. Their professional staff fixed gutters, replaced shingles, and trimmed multiple trees including a very large and difficult to access silver maple. The price was amazing. I expected it to be significantly more costly and the service was fast from quote to completion. My family has used Barnes in the past for skunk removal as well. They’ll do it all and do it well. Top notch. I’ll definitely call again!
If you are looking for a trusted professional to take care of your Wildlife and Pest Control needs then look no further. Jacob and his crew always make sure the job gets done right. Highly recommend!
The professionalism of this company is great. They are trustworthy and do a great job. I would recommend them to anyone.
Outstanding business w/outstanding owners and employees. I’ve had them do everything from coyote control to mice prevention at my own home and gutter and chimney work at my parents house. Courteous, prompt and professional!
I think Barnes Wildlife has got to the smoothest, well greased con-artist we've ever met. WAY over priced for the work that was actually performed in addition we were charged for work that was not completed. We feel compelled to warn others, think long and hard... They use very slick scare tactics. It appears making money is all they TRULY care about. Barnes Wildlife told us they would give us a discount for a positive review, no thanks...
I had a variety of raccoons and skunks dig under my shed. Barnes came out, set traps and built a secure exclusion under my shed. They were friendly and easy to work with!
I just used Barnes Wildlife control for a racoon problem I had. They were the best. Called them and they were out the next day. Solved the problem in the way I wanted it solved. Great communications and easy to work with. I would use the again in a heartbeat.
After thinking I had mice in a wall I had an inspection done. I was very surprised to find out it was bats not mice and glad I called. They came out and fixed the entry points and fixed my chimney as well. Excellent work and customer service couldn’t be happier. Very knowledgable and experienced. Highly recommend Barnes. Thanks so much to your team.
We had quite a problem with animals in our attic and in our walls of our two story brick house! The folks at Barnes Wildlife have an excellent google rating AND they took the time to explain their process with their team coming to our house immediately. Their quote was accurate and their team was very professional and courteous. They didn’t stop until they cought them all. We would definitely recommend Barnes Wildlife to handle any of your wildlife issues. 14 Flying squirrels were trapped and handled by their team. No more sleepless creepy nights. They were all truly a pleasure to work with, especially Brett. They didn’t give up and we did have them seal the whole 25 year old house. Thank you Barnes!
I had a squirrel in my wall and the guys at Barnes Wildlife came out at least 5 or 6 times to set/check traps, patch holes, and went WAY above and beyond what they needed to do to get the animal out! They had excellent communication, often checking in on things throughout the week to see if there was any progress. They never seemed to look at the financial aspect of things, instead, they treated me like family, shifting around schedules to accommodate me and making sure things were done right. From a financial aspect, they were extremely fair - honestly, for all they did, I thought it would have cost much more! I am relieved to have the problem taken care of, and it was a pleasure to have worked with such a professional company. I highly recommend their services to anyone with animal control issues.
Brett and the team at Barnes has helped my family through a difficult coyote problem right in the middle of Kettering. Brett was able to trap 8 coyotes! We had become fearful since one of the coyotes had come at me and one my dogs, we were seeing them daily and the coyotes clearly had no fear of humans! Thanks for helping make our yard safe again! Highly recommend Brett and Barnes!
Highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control! Very knowledgeable; extremely responsive; excellent customer service; courteous in-person technicians and on-phone office staff; patient... didn't rush the process, kept coming out until sure all raccoons were gone before final touches to ensure they couldn't breach the attic again. Tommy did great work! Wouldn't hesitate us use again if needed.
We have five squirrels (FIVE!) that had take up residency in our attic. Tommy came out, figured out where they were getting in at and set up traps. We caught the first one in 30 minutes and then around one a day for the next few days. They have all been evicted and have not returned! Very happy with Barnes and how quick they were able to take care of the problem. I'd recommend them to anyone with any type of animal problem.
Great company with high knowledge. Luke Stauffer not only did a great job, but offered useful information. Highly recommend this company, in my case, for aggravating raccoons in my attic.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
I highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control. Tommy helped us out with a mice infestation. He thoroughly inspected our house inside and out and gave us very detailed advice and estimates of what they could do to help us. Per his advice we had them seal up our house from top to bottom to make sure no more animals get in. He also helped us to set traps inside the house to catch the mice. Tommy was very courteous and professional. He sent us detailed pictures of the work he did to the outside of our house. The outdoor seal up was quiet and professionally done. I would recommend calling Barnes for any wildlife concerns.
Great job done! Tommy came out and really took his time looking for a critter in our attic. Luckily for us there was none residing up there, but Tommy made us a screen(s) to cover the outdoor places into our attic. He even stained the wire to make it blend with the house.
Tommy had a great personality and he was so very helpful. He cleared the roof of limb debris and cleared our laundry vent where it was opened and critters could have gotten it. He went above and beyond!
I will call them again if I need help.

I am very pleased with the work Barnes Wildlife Control did for me. Tommy was very easy to work with, and answered all of my questions. Their work blends well with the house and is barely noticeable. I would recommend them highly.
Woke up one morning to noise in the attic, and discovered I had a squirrel that had decided it was a good place to ride out the winter. Called Barnes Wildlife Control and worked with Wade. He did a very thorough inspection and went over where the squirrel was getting in, ended up there were two that had built a sizable nest in my attic. Wade caught the squirrels, sealed up the entrances and removed the nest. I am very pleased with their work. While I hope to not need them again, if I have pests again, I would not hesitate to call.
I am very happy with the job Barnes Wildlife Control did for me. I had raccoons in my attic. They came out to assess the situation the day after I called. I got a detailed quote and pictures. Tommy set traps, checked on them and took the critters away promptly. He communicated with me frequently by text. They came out on a Saturday to clean out the attic and reinstall new insulation so I did not have to take time off. They did a great job.
Professional and friendly service crew, with Tommy leading the way. Did a complete job of securing the house and roof from critter entry, then removed old junk and debris from attic, cleaned out and put in new insulation. Clean start to the new year!
I've known Jacob for a long time, but seeing his knowledge and passion for this work is phenomenal. Now that the job is finished, we are very pleased with the results. His technicians were also very thourogh and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend Barnes Wildlife Control to anyone who needs their services.
So far so good, even though only 1 mole was caught, however for over $600 worth of work they could have flattened out the holes they dug for the traps, good thing I have to repair anyway. Unsure if I will use again. Also charges tax for work too...so keep that in mind when you have work done.
Tommy came out to service my commercial property and could not have been more helpful. From start to finish Tommy and his crew were professional and courteous. He answered all my questions and communicated with me through the entire process. Thank you Barnes Wildlife Control.
We worked with Tommy to quote and manage our large full remediation and access prevention project. Tommy was great to work with and Barnes really knows their stuff. They have the trained staff to get the job done and to do it right.
Amazing company! This is the second time we’ve used Barnes Wildlife Control and the second time we’ve been delighted with their efficient, friendly and effective service. The issue this time was persistent and damaging woodpeckers who chewed up our siding on repetitive and multiple occasions. The excellent technicians at Barnes Wildlife Control identified the problem and installed some very effective reflective bird scarers in the problem areas. These are extremely well engineered light weight and unobtrusive reflective devices that dissuade birds from paying close attention to our siding. The devices are really well made and *completely* eliminated the problem! Incidentally, the devices are local in their action, so they won’t affect birds feeding at your favorite feeder, so you can still enjoy the beautiful birds while saving any damage to your property.
We are so pleased with the service that Barnes Wildlife Control and specifically Tommy provided! We suspected something might be living in our attic, so Tommy came out only a couple of days after we called. He thoroughly inspected our house for any potential entry points for unwanted animals, and also recommended trimming our tree branches over the roof, since animals could access our house that way. He found a small hole and set a trap. A few days later, Tommy called and asked if we had seen anything in the trap, and we hadn't, but I also hadn't heard noise in the attic either. Tommy scheduled a day to come out and remove the trap, and texted me pictures of the 5 flying squirrels that had left the attic! He removed them and filled the hole to the attic. He has been so professional and thorough, we couldn't be happier. I would absolutely recommend Barnes Wildlife Control to anyone with unwanted animals on their property!
We were extremely happy with the service we received from Barnes Wildlife Control!
Once we called the office we received a prompt and courteous call from Tommy. He was able to come out that same day to assess our situation. Tommy was very knowledgeable about our wildlife issue.
After checking our home environment he was able to assist us in creating a plan to help eliminate any wildlife that was able to access our home. The crew who came out to seal up cracks etc. outside did a very thorough job. Tommy came back the next day to make sure everything was done properly, and He also installed a system on our roof and eave to deter other wildlife problems.
Insulation removal and installation after our home was sealed up was completed by a very hard working crew, JT, Pete, Chris and Tommy.
Once completed they cleaned up our yard and inside our home, and it looked better than when they had started!

We want to thank Tommy and the Barnes Wildlife Control team for their prompt and professional service. We suspected we might have raccoons or other creatures under our deck, so we were interested in deck exclusion. Tommy talked us through all the options. The team installed the exclusion and checked the traps regularly. We are very happy with the installation. They did a great job working around our landscaping and making sure everything looked the way it had before. Well done!
Extremely professional service. I called this company to take care of an extremely aggressive bee nest. They arrived when they said they would when I scheduled my appointment. The technician was polite and professional and most of all he handled my bee problem! I’m very pleased and will call Barnes Pest Control again if I ever need their services.

We had a raccoon decide that his home was going to be under our enclosed porch. Called Barnes Wildlife Control and they had someone that day, set a trap, and by the next morning our house guest was caught. They also did and Exclusion to keep future pests out, Nice work, cleaned up area and replanted plants. Very happy with the work Barnes did. Tommy, Luke and Pete all did a great job!! Thank You very much.
My wife and I had birds and nests in our vents. I called Barnes and could not have been more impressed with the level of customer service. What impressed me the most was not only the knowledge but the customer service mindset from Tommy. Barnes obviously understands the importance of providing a world class customer experience and I appreciate their work.
We were pretty sure we had a dead animal in our wall, the smell was getting pretty bad, so gave Barnes Wildlife Control a call after reading about them on Google. They had someone out that same afternoon. Tommy was very knowledgeable and professional. He found the animal with a small camera inserted into our wall, then removed it, and patched the wall.(Turned out to be a mouse) Thank you for your quick response, professionalism and friendly service!
This is a great company with great service. Tommy was highly professional. He took pictures of all of the work performed and gave me feedback throughout the process. He made a custom modification for our chimney that was very reasonable. He put metal grates on our Gable vents, filled all weep holes and completely sealed all exterior gaps, and he put a secure screen on our chimney to keep out any critters. I would highly recommend this company.
I would highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control, they helped us when a raccoon decided to take up residence in our attic. They showed up at the times that they stated and were always super friendly and explained everything that was going to be done. Thankfully the one raccoon was caught and didn’t have any babies in our attic. We wished we would have called them long before we did! If you are having any issues with unwelcome wildlife critters then don’t hesitate to call them, they will get the job done!
My family and I are truly thankful for all the hard work that Tommy and the rest of the Barnes Wildlife crew did to rid our house of the squirrels that were wreaking havoc on it. This is the second time that we have used them and both times we were very pleased with all their hard work. Now we can relax and enjoy our 3 seasons room and not have to hear the squirrels scurrying about. They also helped rid our front porch not only of the squirrels but from the birds that were attempting to nest there. Thank you from the Pristas Family!
I would highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control. Tommy came out and sealed the house so we wouldn't get any more bats in the house. He was very thorough and did a great job. He is a very pleasant young man.?
Thank you Tommy from Barnes Wildlife for your quick response in helping me secure my home from squirrels. It's not the first time I've reached out to your company for emergency help in getting the squirrels out of my house. Your prompt attention has given me peace of mind once more and I thank you so much.
Tommy and the rest of the team from Barnes Wildlife Control, were great when these little raccoon critters were wanting to make themselves at home in my attic. I called, they were there the next day, Tommy surveyed my yard and found where they were climbing up to get on the roof and ultimately in the gable of vent, suggesting the plan of attack, and the first night caught the male raccoon. The trap was reset the day of pick-up and other critters came to visit too. Tommy was pretty sure we captured the culprit and we waited a week for the attic inspection, in case the mom was up there. Attic inspection clear, raccoons at bay and me the home owner happy. Professional, thorough and thoughtful to the situation, I would recommend Barnes Wildlife Control and use them again!
We have used Barnes twice now for the removal of raccoons. Every single time we have been more than satisfied. Most recently, Tommy from Barnes came out. We couldn’t have asked for someone better. Tommy was professional and extremely educated about his craft. He went the extra to ensure I fully understood what was going to be done and the pricing behind it. He also truly cared about his work and my home. He made my wife and I feel very comfortable through the whole process. Highly recommend.
Fantastic. One try and the horrible raccoon was caught. I had another Dayton area critter catcher and they tried to catch it for almost 2 months. This company knows critters and how to get them. Wow! Now we will see about the cost for the damage/remediation. They even checked my home to see areas that might need to be sealed. The raccoon was in the rafters at our barn and not in our home. But they evaluated the entire property. Wow again!
Unfortunately a raccoon decided our attic was the perfect place for her nest. Called Barnes and they sent Tommy out. A trap was set, raccoon caught, and babies found. Tommy was great keeping us updated and working with us as we were out of town for part of the process. The soffit was repaired and we have peace of mind. Thanks Tommy and Barnes Wildlife Control!
Barnes Wildlife is fantastic! Tommy was quick and effective at trapping and removing the (live) squirrel from my attic. I was quite unnerved by the whole thing, and his explanations and and calm demeanour were reassuring and made me feel far less anxious about sharing my home with a critter. Barnes Wildlife also did an excellent job trimming trees and patching up holes so that more critters don't venture in. Although I hope to never need their services again, if I do, I will certainly hire Barnes Wildlife!
Tommy and team, including the office staff, couldn’t have been nicer. I had both a opossum and skunk take up residence in my shed. The skunk sprayed when s/he was discovered and Barnes did a great job remediating the issue. I also used them to disassemble the shed and haul away it along with most of the “skunky” contents to ensure I wouldn’t have future wildlife guests. Unlike some of the other companies I called, they‘ll come out on weekends. I highly recommend Barnes and especially, Tommy!
Barnes is the best! I had a hole near the front door of my house where birds or another animal was trying to nest. Tommy filled in the hole and also performed a visual inspection of the outside of my house where he found some holes in my cedar siding. He also recommended that I put screens over my gable vents so critters don't try to get inside. The siding repair work and the gable vent screens look great!
We really appreciate Tommy from Barnes Wildlife Control. He was very professional, prompt, thorough, and helped to quickly diagnose our animal problem (carpenter bees and woodpecker damage to our home). We are grateful for the recommendations to correct the problem, the treatment performed, as well as the guidance for preventative measures. Would very highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control and will use them in the future. Thank you!
Tommy checked my mom's house for rodents and other animals in her attic. He inspected the outside of the house also for any entry points. He was very thorough and eased her nerves so she can sleep better at night. We appreciate Barnes wildlife control very much
We heard noises in our attic at night and then found animal derbies. We called Barnes and they can first thing on Monday. Found the access points and traps. We could always be there during working hours but Tommy did a great job keeping us updated and informed with pictures. They closed the access points up and cleaned all the feces and debris up. Highly recommend them!
Barnes did a great job in removing a female raccoon from our attic. Tommy came out the same day we called and set the traps. He was very courteous and explained the whole process to us. He checked the traps personally while we were out of town and then came back on short notice to put up additional screening. Once the raccoon was caught, Brett came out promptly to remove our catch, inspect the attic, and repair our roof and soffits. He did a great job also. I would highly recommend the Barnes team.
I recently had a raccoon in my attic. Barnes was able to come out the next day. They set a trap, caught the raccoon two days later, and then came out to check for damage and debris in the attic. They even told me how my insulation looked and made sure the vents were all operable. Thanks Tommy! You were great!
I highly recommend Barnes. Ask for Tommy. They arrive on time and are very competent, trustworthy and service oriented. They made recommendations and problem solved quickly! Great value!
Barnes helped me get a raccoon out of my attic of a rental property and replaced soffit vents to prevent them from coming in again. The price was competitive and fair. The service was great
We heard noises in the attic and called Barnes. They came out and inspected the attic and found that squirrels were coming in through the roof vent. They set up traps, caught two squirrels and put a cage over the vent to prevent future ones from coming back into the attic. I want to say that they came right away, acted quickly and got the job done right. Kudos to Tommy for doing a great job!
Prompt service,, company answered my emails on a holiday, had Tommy come out the next morning - he put up traps in horribly cold weather, and checked back often until the raccoons that got in our attic were removed. After making sure no other animals were present, he patched the damage the animals had done to the house. Barnes and Tommy will be my first call if I have animal problems again!
We weren't aware of any animals living inside the attic/chimney when we recently purchased fixer upper rental property and called Barnes Wildlife first strictly based on the online reviews. We made the right choice! Tommy was very knowledgeable and the ultimate professional in solving our pest problem. They trapped/removed multiple squirrels and raccoons, installed a chimney cap, and filled holes with copper mesh and foam. Tommy provided great communication throughout the process and we didn't have to worry about a thing. I would definitely recommend Barnes Wildlife!
Thank you to Tommy and the Barnes customer service team for calming my fears and making a swift plan for pest removal. Each time he came Tommy was professional and kind, and great to our kids as well. His plan for eradication was comprehensive, while taking into account budgets and timelines. Barnes will be our go-to for any future pest problems.
Awakened at 3 am to something "going bump in the night". Turns out raccoons came in through my chimney. Barnes came out that day, set traps and removed the mother and babies trying to set up house in MY house. Quick response to removal calls, even on the weekend. Also installed a chimmey cap to prevent further visitors. Referring all my friends to them!!
Tommy was on time, quickly evaluated my issue, and explained possible solutions. He was patient in addressing my questions. He also was great about pointing out other possible hazards. I would definitely recommend Barnes!
We had squirrels living in our covered deck, but I was concerned that they may be in the attic. Tommy did a thorough inspection and set several humane traps to catch them. He was professional and very helpful, often coming by our home to check on them himself during times when he had not heard from me. He also provided ideas for repairs so that this issue does not arise again. Overall, a wonderful experience and wonderful company.
I highly recommend Barnes Wildlife Control. They are very professional and provide excellent service. We had a groundhog problem and they eliminated the problem quickly, with some other potential problems removed as well. They are very efficient and timely, easy to work with explaining how they would handle the problem. Drew and his crew were outstanding.....highly recommend if you have a "critter problem!"
After calling 3 different places, I chose Barnes because they quoted the best price. I was not disappointed. I called on Friday night close to 5 & Jacob showed up Saturday morning at 9:30 (the other places wouldn't do weekends). He was pleasant & professional & did the work at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Barnes if you need critters removed!!
The Guys were wonderful. We never knew there was a company that would remove antennas. They came on time and when they left they took everything. This company is Awesome! Would recommend them to anyone who has an antenna they want remove safely and efficiently. No more worries about animals using this to get onto our roof. Great job guys.
