I did not know we had a Skunk Whisperer in the Tulsa area.

You mean you haven't met her.....?

My aunt lives out in the country and has a bunch of raccoons that hang out on her roof (she has grape vines that grow over her deck, and they started hanging out there b/c it was convenient to sit on the roof and eat grapes, safely away from dogs and coyotes...). I just spent several hours cleaning raccoon crap out of her gutters this weekend. I am not feeling very positive about raccoons today. I'm thinking a .22 would be a good solution to just about any raccoon problem...

and the fuzzy tailed rats (squirrels) that keep eating my tomatoes and killing the plants.
The Skunk Whisperer rocks. He fixed our bat problem...and prevented bird and squirrel issues. He believes that you don't have a critter problem, you have a building problem. He really cares about animals. Super guy.
Hope they didn't turn them over to COT animal control.
One of our welders caught a large coon in trap in our shop. He called animal control thinking they would simply release it somewhere it belongs. Nope, they get the gas treatment. Our shop is about 1/2 mile off the river, so we do get some odd critters here. I found a freshly-hatched turtle baby last week on the sidewalk.

No way. Ned doesn't let animals be killed.

I hadn't heard of the company until I saw their truck on BA expressway a month or so back. Quite an attention getter.
He just removed a birds nest from inside the siding on our garage apartment. Tenant called & birds were waking him up in the early morning.
Birds are disgusting creatures that are infested with all kinds of diseases. Ned took care of it quickly. He rocks!!
We helped Ned and team with a bat watch last night at a large midtown home. It's been a huge project for Ned and included having the homeowner replace the entire roof with composition shingles. Cedar shingles do not seal up and contain thousands of holes for bats to enter.
There were a LOT of bats coming out of that place...but we had the house surrounded and found their exit points. Now Ned will go in and seal up everything but the entry/exit point. It's a maternity colony so they'll have to wait until September to complete the exclusion/eviction.
