Natural Deterrents for Nuisance Wildlife: Safe, Smart Ways to Protect Your Property
April 6, 2025When wild animals show up in your attic, crawl space or backyard, it’s more than just a nuisance—it’s a safety issue. Choosing the right wildlife removal company isn’t just about who can get there the fastest. It’s about trusting someone to remove the animal safely, humanely and in a way that prevents the problem from coming back. That’s where The Snake Chaser stands apart.
What Makes The Snake Chaser the Right Choice?
1. Humane Practices First
At The Snake Chaser, we never resort to cruel or outdated removal methods. We use only the most humane and effective traps available, designed to safely contain the animal without causing stress or harm. From snakes to squirrels, every animal we capture is handled with respect and care.
2. Relocation to Safe, Undisclosed Locations
Once captured, wildlife isn’t just dumped nearby or left to fend for itself. We relocate every healthy animal to a safe, undisclosed location—far from neighborhoods, roadways and populated areas—where it has the best chance of thriving in its natural environment.
3. Help for Injured Wildlife
Sometimes, the animals we encounter are injured or orphaned. In those cases, our team coordinates with trusted local wildlife rehabilitation centers to ensure the animal receives the care it needs. We believe every life has value and do everything possible to help injured wildlife recover.
4. Ethical from Start to Finish
We go beyond removal. We inspect, assess and help property owners understand how to seal entry points and prevent future problems. Our goal is long-term peace of mind—not a temporary fix. We educate our clients while protecting the balance between humans and local wildlife.
What to Look for in a Wildlife Removal Company
Not all services are created equal. A responsible wildlife removal company will never use glue traps, harmful poisons or shortcuts that risk injury to animals or property. Look for professionals who practice ethical trapping methods and care about relocation and rehabilitation—not just fast removal.

With The Snake Chaser, you get more than just a fast solution—you get compassionate, experienced professionals who do things the right way. From humane trapping to relocation and rehabilitation, we’re committed to protecting your home and the animals we share our environment with.

FAQs
1. How much does wildlife removal cost?
The cost of wildlife removal can vary depending on the type of animal, the complexity of the removal and how extensive the damage or infestation is. For example, removing a single raccoon from an attic will be priced differently than resolving a squirrel infestation with multiple entry points. At The Snake Chaser, we offer transparent pricing and thorough inspections to ensure you understand the full scope of the issue. We don’t just trap and leave—we relocate humanely and help prevent future problems, which makes our services a long-term investment in your safety and peace of mind.
2. What is the most humane way to remove wildlife?
The most humane way to remove wildlife is through safe, live trapping combined with responsible relocation or rehabilitation. At The Snake Chaser, we use traps specifically designed to avoid injuring animals. Once captured, we relocate them to safe, undisclosed areas where they can continue to live and thrive. If an animal is injured, we work with licensed wildlife rehab centers to get them the help they need. Humane removal means thinking beyond capture—it’s about the full well-being of the animal and your property.
3. Can I remove wildlife myself?
It might be tempting to handle wildlife problems on your own, but DIY removal can be dangerous for both you and the animal. Many wild animals carry diseases, and improper handling or relocation can result in injury or death. In South Carolina, certain species are protected by law, which means removing or relocating them without the right licenses could be illegal. At The Snake Chaser, we’re trained, licensed and equipped to handle wildlife professionally and ethically, making sure the process is safe, legal and effective from start to finish.
