“Quick professional emergency response and friendly service; we will definitely use their service for any future problems that arise. We had an unwanted goose at the Millpond next to City Hall that had been attacking local residents and even attacked our City Manager! Creature Control was extremely prompt in their response and were able to capture the goose very quickly Jason is the local hero of the day!"

Humane, Effective Pest and Wildlife Control
 

Creature Control was founded as a small, family-owned nuisance wildlife control company specializing in humane, live trapping and animal removal in the southern Livingston-northern Washtenaw County area.  Though we have grown over the years and now service ten counties out of two offices, we are still family owned and operated and have been proud to service the Brighton area for years.

Creature Control strives (in as far as is possible in this animal control industry) to use only humane and ecologically friendly methods of animal and pest removal. Any animals that can be trapped alive are live trapped. In our pest control division, we utilize pesticides such as pyrethrum, which is made from a naturally occuring compound found in the chrysanthemum flower and is an effective deterrent for common pests such as spiders, ants, earwigs and centipedes.

Benefits of Using a Local Company

As Michigan's economy and ecosystem continues to change, there has been an increased demand for animal control in Brighton, MI. When choosing an animal control company, it is important to use somebody who is familiar with the local conditions and ecology. Too often, national franchises makret serivices in a given area but are unfamiliar with that region's specific needs. For example, Brighton has lately been experiencing an over abundance of raccoons and skunks.  There is also a large bat population in  downtown Brighton; this is due to the Millpond, which provides ample insects for local bats to feed on. All bat removal and bat control in Brighton, MI provided by Creature Control include specialized bat exclusion processes regulated by the federal and local state government. There are also several marshy areas and smaller lakes outside of the city proper that are ideal feeding areas for bats (Hope Lake and School Lake off Old U.S.-23, for example).

Inside a heavily urbanized area like Brighton, live trapping is the most common technique for controlling nuisance wildlife such as raccoons, squirrels, skunks, groundhogs, opossums and similar small mammals.

Using a company local to Livingston County also helps promote locally based business and keeps our money in the area!

Services Provided

Over the years, our technicians have perfected our processes: we begin with a thorough foundation-to-roof inspection of the home to locate entry points, followed by live trapping and extraction of animals found in the home. This is followed up by point-of-entry exclusion to keep the animal from getting back into the home; prompt and professional follow-up is provided for problems that require more than one visit. Though specific methods of trapping and animal removal will vary depending on each situation, the key to all nuisance wildlife removal is attention to detail, thoroughness, and knowledge of specific animal species, all areas in which Creature Control excels.

We are proud to provide services such as raccoon removal, squirrel trapping, bird exclusion, and bat removal and bat exclusion to the Brighton area. How do you get rid of bats? Call our experts! Squirrels in the attic? Let us help! Raccoons in the attic can be a very costly problem; Creature Control's experienced and prompt technicians can make this problem easier on your budget with the most competitive pricing in the Brighton, MI. area.

These restoration services include drywall and drop ceiling repair, removal and replacement of insulation contaminated by urine and feces, repairs to soffit vents and siding damaged by wildlife, and many other services. In cases of raccoon damage and damage from bat droppings, it is often the case that your homeowner's insurance policy will pay for restoration. For this reason, Creature Control has a specialist on staff who specializes in insurance claims.
