Experts with Extensive Experience in Wild Animal Control

  • Raccoon Removal

    Raccoons are common throughout Hamilton, especially where there are residential garbage bins, mature green areas or corridors, and older houses with weak or damaged rooflines, attics, and soffits. Whether these animals have invaded your crawlspaces, attic, walls, or are tearing up your yard, let our team use humane traps and remove them safely.

  • Squirrel Control

    From our experience, the most common squirrel species in homes across Hamilton is the eastern grey squirrel. Other common species include the American red squirrel and southern flying squirrel. While squirrels can be found in nearly every backyard, they are more common in Dundas Valley, Crown Point, Gage Park, and other neighborhoods across the city. Schedule squirrel removal with us.

  • Skunk Removal

    Unlike raccoons and squirrels, skunks aren’t good climbers. You may not find them in your attic or roof, but they can dig under structures, concrete slabs, and foundation gaps. If you have spotted the striped skunk, the only skunk species common throughout the city, contact us. Our skunk removal specialists will use various humane methods to evict them from their denning or shelters.

  • Mice Removal

    Did you know that a pair of mice can produce about 11 litters per year? Given a litter averages 5-6 mice, their population can grow quickly. That’s why we recommend professional removal services as a long-term solution for house mice, which are common throughout the city. Our experts will inspect your home to safely remove the mice and seal entry points to prevent future infestations.

  • Rat Control

    Recently, Orkin Canada ranked Hamilton 11th of the rattiest cities in Ontario. If you have spotted the brown or sewer rat (the most prevalent rat species) in your yard, don’t hesitate to contact us. These critters pose a significant health risk and property damage. You can count on us for professional property inspection, rat control, and exclusion.

  • Bat Removal

    A bat infestation in a home or commercial property poses serious health risks due to their toxic waste and the disease-causing pathogens they carry. Unfortunately, Hamilton’s proximity to the Niagara Escarpment offers a breeding site and sufficient food source, which is why the city has the largest bat population in Ontario. If you have a bat problem in your home, our team can help.

  • Opossum Control

    Climate change and other environmental factors have led to an increase in the opossum population, specifically the Virginia opossum, in Hamilton and across Ontario. They are more common in the Great Lakes region because they are unable to physically withstand severe cold. Our experts can safely trap the opossums, remove them, and seal all the entry points to prevent them from returning.

  • Rabbit Removal

    The most common rabbit in Hamilton gardens and backyards is the Eastern Cottontail rabbit. These critters are a nuisance for homeowners and carry parasites like ticks and fleas. Let our team use humane rabbit control techniques that’ll help keep these pests away from your home. Schedule a home inspection today.

Alma Kirstein

We are very pleased with Critter Hero’s work. Chris was always here in a timely manner and worked hard to get our loft which is also our Airbnb free of the squirrels who found their way into the attic through the roof. It was extremely cold during the time and Chris never shirked on coming when it was necessary. He also did a fantastic job in sealing off the entry points. We highly recommend Critter Hero.

Edgar Teodoro

I highly recommend Critter Hero. Chris is extremely professional and easy to work with. We started hearing scratching noises in our attic, and he promptly came to inspect the issue and provide a cost estimate. It turned out that raccoons had found their way in. Chris handled the removal efficiently and made sure to seal all entry points to prevent future intrusions.

Giovanni Pagliari

Our experience with Critter Hero was excellent. After contacting two other local pest control companies who told us they couldn’t help us, and paying one of them $100 for an estimate, Chris the technician from Critter Hero assured us that he could solve our problem. He was professional, transparent about costs, and delivered on every promise. Highly recommended!

Kyla McNeil

We moved into a new house and discovered some happy little squirrels living in our attic. We were referred to Chris by a large roofing company. He came over the next day, assessed the situation, and got to work. Within a week the squirrels were gone, and Chris sealed up all the entry points. Great service!

Veruska Rosas

I contacted them on December 30 and Chris almost immediately replied saying I will be there at the end of the day. Chris was very professional and answered all my questions. The next day he came to do his work. After a week, the squirrels were gone. I am grateful that I contacted Critter Hero on time.

Dominique J

We had a squirrel that had fallen into a deep cavity of the dry wall of the house and trapped itself. Chris came within a couple of hours of calling and managed to locate the squirrel and help him escape via a rope dangled into the wall gap from the attic. Phew! Thanks Chris!
