Troy did an awesome job!! He sealed up the house where bats can get in.We have not had any bats in the house.

On 9/29/2026 Abbie Christopherson had this to say:
Our experience with North Country Wildlife Control has been exceptional. Troy has been to our home for multiple pest issues now, and solved both of them immediately. He is knowledgeable and trustworthy he will get to the source of the problem. Would recommend him to anyone!

On 7/8/2026 Linda Evans had this to say:
We had a chipmunk in the house for over a week. We couldn’t catch it. Our 4 cats were no help. In fact one of the cats probably brought it in. We called Troy. He came by right away and setup 3 live capture traps. The chipmunk was captured that night.

On 6/12/2026 Deb Johnson had this to say:
We had an infestation of MANY bats in our attic of our summer parkmodel mobile home) and addition. They were noisy, scraping around above us and guano on the siding as well as in the house.( and bat bugs in the house)Occasionally a bat would get in the house and eventually they also got into the cupboard above the microwave through small openings in the ductwork. Troy educated us on the how best to deal with the problem and was upfront about the difficulty in getting them to “move out.” From the sealing of every possible opening in the metal roof, putting and replacing a cone to let them out and then following up when they were persistent in coming back he made many follow up calls and visits. We highly recommend North Country Wildlife. Troy is knowledgeable and will go to great lengths to make sure the problem is taken care of. We are free from bats now but if they ever come back we will call Troy Orr!

On 6/5/2026 Doc Conley had this to say:
We were under the gun, we were having our attic insulated and all work stopped, they ran into bats, a lot of bats. I called Troy, he came out the same day. Troy had the bats out of our attic within three days. They moved on to somewhere else, hopefully not the neighbors😁 Troy is Superman as far as we are concerned. He is friendly, fast and efficient and great communicator. We can’t thank him enough!!
