My wife and I had been hearing scratching noises since early May 2019 when I found one of the air vents to our crawl space had been pulled open by some kind of critter. After that we kept hearing scratching noises every morning between 6:00 a.m. and 6:39 a.m every morning for weeks. I tried several other wildlife companies but they said they were too busy to come out. I kept looking and I found Critter Control of Toledo, Ohio.
I called Critter Control in mid May and they said that they couldn't come out until June 6, 2019. They inspected our crawl space at least twice and they could not find any evidence of what we thought was a raccoon. The noises continued every morning right under the where our bathtub in the Master bathroom meets the outside wall.
That was where we heard the scratching every morning. Critter Control set traps under the crawl space for a good three weeks from June 6, 2019 through June 24, 2019 and they were unable to trap any animal. Critter Control was out here on these dates in June 2019 on these dates, 6/6, 6/13, 6/14, 6.17, 6/18, 6/20,6/21 and 6/24, The technician that was out here on June 24, 2019 (Nate) said that they had not found anything in the traps as of yet and he was removing the traps. I told him that we haven't heard anything under the crawl space since June 16, 2019 and we think that the raccoon or other animal gave up and moved out. Nate said if we hear anything under the crawl space within the next three weeks which he said is our grace period, that we should call Critter Control and they would bring traps back out. I thanked Nate and I told him that we know that Critter Control of Toledo tried their best to catch what was under our floor, but what ever it was never touched the baits in the trap cages. Critter Control, thanks for trying when I couldn't get any other company to come out and try to capture what we thought was a raccoon. I know that Critter Control supervisors and their wildlife technicians tried their best for us but nothing found.
