What our customers say
Customer feedback on wildlife removal, exclusion and pest control.
“Rocco and Empire Wildlife are fantastic!!!!! ...Rocco's prompt reply and same day service gave us peace of mind. Very courteous and extremely fair pricing.”
“Rocco did a great job. We had a family of birds living in our stove range which Rocco was able to successfully remove, along with their nest. He put a screen in front of the vent and cleaned up the mess the birds had made. Highly recommend his services.”
“Rocco came today and provided exceptional service and a reasonable and very fair price. He was friendly, patient with his explanation and went the extra mile to... get rid of our racoons.”
“Had an amazing experience with this company today!! Had a squirrel get in through my soffit below my roof... Called to get a quote and within a couple of hours Tim had fixed the issue.”
“Very pleased. Was able to accommodate my request for squirrel trap on my roof in -20C. Visit was thorough with before and after pictures and future recommendations on vent replacement.”
“The first time he did a fantastic job and a much cheaper rate than most of the other companies we called. We had a squirrel in our walls and he also did some work on some mice.”
“Rocco was very responsive. He provided clear and straightforward instructions to prepare the unit for treatment, which were easy for the tenants to follow.”
“Amazing expertise with the squirrel exclusion work on our porch. He used galvanized mesh to block the gap under the floorboards where they were hiding. House is finally quiet and the entry points are solid.”
“Technicians did an amazing job installing motion-activated deterrents around our trash area... he set up a system with high-frequency sound and bright lights that scares the raccoons away.”
“I was honestly embarrassed about the roach issue, but the tech was incredibly kind and non-judgmental. He did a deep treatment of our cabinets and we haven't seen a bug since.”
“Unreal results within just a few hours after the treatment was done... The crew was punctual, professional, and left the place spotless. Definitely calling them back for any future pest issues.”
“Calling this top-rated local business for emergency ants control saved our summer family barbecue after we found giant mound nests popping up near the grass play area.”
“I panicked when my young son almost stepped on an active yellowjacket burrow near our lawn mower shed... Called their office and spoke with an extremely polite customer...”
“My backyard was completely ruined by voles and that is when I reached out to Empire. Rocky is just amazing.”
