California's climate supports a wide array of wildlife throughout the year, making nuisance animal issues a constant concern.

Specific regulations and licensing requirements govern wildlife control operators in California. When selecting a service, prioritize providers with demonstrated knowledge of local wildlife and adherence to state standards.

Common questions

What smells keep animals away?

Some strong odors like ammonia or predator urine are sometimes suggested to deter animals. However, their effectiveness is often temporary and species-dependent. For persistent issues in California homes, professional exclusion is typically the most reliable solution.

Is there a fee for calling animal control?

Fees for animal control services can vary based on your local jurisdiction and the specific nature of the animal issue. Some municipal services may charge for responses or certain types of removals. Animal Control Solutions offers a free phone consultation to discuss potential costs.

What is the 3-3-3 rule for animals?

The 3-3-3 rule is generally applied to the adjustment period for adopted pets, outlining their decompression over 3 days, learning routines over 3 weeks, and settling in over 3 months. This guideline is not applicable to professional wildlife management services.

Who to call to pick up stray cats?

Your local animal shelter or municipal animal control agency is the primary resource for stray cats. They manage stray intake and animal welfare. For feral cat colonies, professional wildlife services can offer guidance and solutions.
