Choose your city

The warm, humid climate of South Carolina creates an ideal environment for many animal species to thrive. This means year-round potential for wildlife encounters, especially around homes and businesses. Hot summers can lead animals to seek cooler shelter inside structures, while mild winters rarely deter foraging. Understanding these patterns helps us provide effective wildlife control solutions across South Carolina.

Common questions

The 3-3-3 rule is a common guideline for pet adoption adjustment periods. It suggests three days to decompress, three weeks to learn routines, and three months to feel at home. This rule does not apply to the wild animals we manage in South Carolina.
