We received a call about a possible bird in a chimney. When the technician arrived, to his surprise it was an Owl that was stuck in the chimney. After carefully determining the most effective way to remove the Owl without harming it, the Owl was safely removed completely unharmed. The homeowners were extremely happy and relieved when they found out we could cap their chimney so something like this would not happen again. The Owl, after removal, was released back into it's habitat of the great outdoors where it soared freely through the air. All services provided by Baystate Wildlefe are based on the most humane resolution possible. February 2010, Pocasset, MA

Great Review

"After hearing what sounded like a small party going on in my attic for a week or so and noticing a squirrel sneaking into my attic under a corner of the roof, I called Baystate Wildlife to come help out. They set up a convenient appointment and came out the day after I called (they would have come sooner but I wasn't going to be home). They arrived right on time (actually a little bit early, which I appreciated). The owner, Mark, got up on the roof to inspect the main area where I thought they were getting in, and confirmed that it was squirrels. He put a humane temporary trap up on the roof (i.e. one that would trap a squirrel but still let it live so they could release it) and arranged for Duncan to come out the next day to install a one-way squirrel door on the roof so the squirrels in the attic could get out but not back in, and to squirrel-proof the rest of the house. The quote was less than other places I had called, and they also provided a one-year guarantee that if the squirrels got back in that they would come out at no additional cost to me and do some additional squirrel-proofing.
Duncan came the next day (working in 85 degree heat on my very old roof, I might add), removed the temporary trap, and installed the one way door and squirrel proofing. I haven't heard a peep since!
These are great, honest guys to work with. I'm a single woman, and I felt totally comfortable having them come to my home. They were knowledgeable and take their work seriously. I had some additional questions after they left, and Mark returned my call promptly and answered all of my questions. I highly recommend them to anyone needing any kind of wildlife removal from the home!"

Another Testimonial
"Last summer, my husband and I were settling into our new home when we realized we had bats in our chimney that were getting into the house. This experience was extremely unsettling and upsetting. Because I wanted to have the problem solved immediately, I made several calls to local companies, and was quite discouraged when I was told that we had to wait several weeks due to other customer demands or because the "bat season" was not over. This was very upsetting, as we felt unsafe and uncomfortable staying in the home we worked so hard to own. However, when I called Baystate Wildlife, they came to our home that afternoon. They immediately identified the problem and took total control over the situation. Mark was compassionate and understanding of my distress,and remedied the problem right away. He also did a full inspection on our home, which had been serviced previously, to put my mind at ease. When I asked him to come inside to peak in the curtains and look in the basement for any bats that were sleeping during the day, he did a full inspection inside. He is very professional and a very nice guy, just like the staff that was with him when he came out the following day to permanently install the chimney cap (which he didn't have at the first visit, but created a temporary chimney cap to put our minds at ease for the evening). He was confident in his work and assured me there would be no problem, which there hasn't been. His thoroughness in his work and the respect with which he treated us is why Baystate Wildlife should be on the top of the list for anyone that needs this problem solved. They completely put my mind at ease and helped me relax entirely so we could enjoy our home. Without any hesitation, I 110% recommend this company!"
