About

I've been in the business for over 8 years and am DNR certified. I am thorough with my inspections of the entire house. I will point out any entry points I find as well as any other issues you may have. I offer fair pricing and am willing to work with most budgets. I offer humane trapping and wildlife relocation. Communication is key, I will give you a window of when I am arriving and am easy to get ahold of via email, call or text.

We loved meeting Keith and his initial round of work was impressive! We liked his approach and he was super pet friendly & aware. We liked his clear strategy and future planning. And we signed up for year round service to be proactive against pests.

Keith of Schmelzer Family Wildlife Removal was prompt, knowledgeable, and thorough. He inspected our entire house and explained in detail what should be done. When he came to take care of our problem, his wife was with him to help out. Both are very respectful. I will call Keith anytime I have a pest issue.

I never realized how many openings my house had for mice seeking a warm home. But Keith did, quickly closing up holes and putting down bait for the critters who had made it inside, explaining as he worked. He was professional and friendly. Nancy L. Frederick, MD
