We had active raccoons (with babies) in our attic. Ron also discovered an old big squirrel nest with a couple of long-dead squirrels. He removed all and cleaned up the mess. I was informed every step of the way. It took many visits to take care of the situation and then seal all entry points. The 5-year warranty gives me some peace of mind. I could not be more satisfied with the work, the scheduling, the office and onsite personnel.

We had Varmint Gone do some work for us for squirrel intrusion in our attic. A week later we had a mouse in our wall (apparently the cold winter made our house very attractive). Keith came out and even though the second problem was unrelated to the first, he took care of it and didn’t charge us! Highly recommend.

Ron and Keith were awesome to work with. They both explained in detail what they would do to get rid of flying squirrels we had in our attic, without killing them. The squirrels would go out during day and come in attic at night and made a real huge mess. Varmint Team set trap doors so when squirrels left during day they couldn’t get back in at night. No need to kill them. Varmint Gone Team sealed all openings so squirrels or other critters can’t get back in. Highly recommend Varmint Gone. Professionals that know what they’re doing. Easy to make appt with, came when scheduled, did what they promised to do. The best company to get rid of squirrels, bats, snakes, etc.

We had squirrels in our attic. Varmint Gone had them removed humanely and closed up all entries so that they couldn’t return. A very professional job with no mess. The clean up and disinfecting afterwards was a huge plus. These folks know what they are doing! I highly recommend them.
Very professional! Ron did an amazing job ridding our attic of momma squirrel, babies, mice and flying squirrels all in a humane way. He was great to work with. Highly recommend
I had the unfortunate experience of having some squirrels move into my attic and Varmint Gone Lake Norman really put my worries at ease.
They were very responsive and were able to come out for an inspection within 24 hours- which was impressive considering it was the week of Thanksgiving. They were extremely polite and genuinely cared about making sure the job got done right. They got the squirrels out, cleaned up the mess and made any necessary repairs. They’ve also done work to ensure that no squirrels can get back in. Top notch professional service.

This is really rare today. A contractor that actually shows up on time! Ron came when he said he would, every time. He did a very thorough survey that itemized all the various items needed to squirrel proof my house. I had three nests. He then made all the repairs necessary, cleaning up each time. The repair job looks great and the attic seems to be squirrel proof now. I will be recommending Varmint Gone to all my friends.

GREAT ! We have a one story brick ranch with wood trim. We have had squirrel problems over the years (chewing awning , nesting, chewing wood trim, etc. This year it became crazy ! Gray squirrels ruined our awning chewing through the canvas and trying to make a nest. We tried using wasp spray and even Pepper spray but they would still come back. They started to attack the crown molding board of our trim in several places … then overnight they chewed a BASEBALL size hole through it, which led into our attic. The morning we discovered it I did a makeshift repair with wood and a piece of vinyl siding over it and checked the attic… no signs. The next day we came out and found they had chewed on the vinyl repair ! We called Varmint Gone (Matthews) and Lisa was so friendly and calming. She scheduled us an appointment within a day …March 16th. Keith Lange came out and spent about 2 hours explaining our problem (squirrels are territorial ) inspecting our attic for wiring damage, nests, etc. and what they could do. 1- “seal ” all points of possible entry with galvanized steel and steel mesh which included gable vents, gutter and trim gaps, etc. 2-solid thin steel to prevent access under roof edge and where needed (trim board) 3- hardening foam around all ridge vents. Plus Sanitize and deodorize ( with a natural cleaner / repellant ) in attic! Also , A 5 YEAR WARRANTY ON ALL REPAIRS AND CONSTRUCTION EXCLUSION FOR SPECIFIC ANIMAL….We signed the contract ! Ron Quesenberry would do our job. Ron started on the 19th and it took him about 2 1/2 days to complete . Ron was on time , professional, and meticulous ! We have gutters on all four sides of our house and Ron carefully fit the special steel flashing all around ! He cut steel sheets to protect the wood joints, steel mesh to fit our round / triangle gable vents and used special screws (not nails) to hold everything in ! Ron takes great pride in his work and it showed. After all the protective work was done Ron also replaced the crown molding and primed and painted all wood , steel and mesh. Ron is so meticulous you cannot see the repairs and the wood matches the original . Ron is “Squirrel Dundee” (even the same hat I think ) ! He took time to answer all our questions and was very friendly. Ron also showed me what problems to watch for in the attic (not that he expected any ),when he fluffed our insulation and did the sanitizing. HOWEVER … Ron said he has never had to redo a job in 15 years ! Everyone at Varmint Gone was great ! They take pride in their profession and are certified wildlife biologists and removal specialists. We have not had one squirrel on our house since you left ….today is April 6th ! They have given us piece of mind back ! A final point… they try to let the squirrels leave on their own if they are inside through an “exclusion” trap where the exit but can’t get back in.

Great company. Very experienced, professional, and practical. We thought had squirrels coming in at one just spot, but they found several other points of access, and got us all fixed up. Very good at scheduling work around weather, my schedule, etc. Highly recommended!
We called Varmint Gone because we had a problem with squirrels and flying squirrels. While they may not seem like extraordinarily dangerous creatures, squirrels are a particularly destructive nuisance, as they have very strong, sharp teeth that will chew through walls, causing damage and allowing more destructive pests into the home. The damage they do can be very dangerous; they?ve been known to chew through service lines, causing electrical damage, blackouts, and even fires from exposed wires. They also pose a physical threat, with the possibility of rabies and other diseases. We obviously wanted them gone as quickly as possible before they did any more damage to my property. Keith came out and did an excellent job taking carly did hee of the flying squirrels, which are a protected species. Not only did he remove the pests and remove their scent, he also sealed the way they got in, as well as the potential weak spots he found with steel, so they could not chew through it and get back in, and even offered a warranty. We strongly recommend him to anyone who is having issues with wildlife; he was very professional and really knows what he is doing. We cannot thank Keith enough for his help.
