A dead animal inside a Nashville wall or attic is almost always one of the species already active locally — raccoons, squirrels, bats. Skunk activity surges February–April during mating season. We thermal-image the exact location, cut the smallest possible access, remove the carcass, and enzyme-treat the cavity so odor is neutralized at the source.

Same process on every Nashville call — no surprises, no upsells mid-job. Every step is performed under a TWRA nuisance wildlife control permit.
Nashville dispatch under 2 hours. Technician arrives with a thermal camera to pinpoint the carcass — usually between studs, in insulation, or in a soffit run.
We plan the smallest possible drywall or soffit access before cutting. Where we cut, we patch — no unfinished holes left behind.
Carcass is bagged and removed, the cavity is treated with hospital-grade enzyme, and any contaminated insulation is bagged out. Odor is neutralized at the source, not masked.
If odor lingers after the enzyme cures, we return at no charge to re-treat. Nine times out of ten, one visit is all it takes.
Skunk under the deck? Middle Tennessee skunk calls triple during February–April mating season — and one spray can linger for weeks.
A dead animal in your wall or attic can make a home unlivable. We locate the source, remove the carcass, sanitize the area with hospital-grade enzymes, and neutralize odor at the source — not just mask it.

Cole diagnosed flying squirrels (not roof rats — I would've bought poison and made it worse). Set traps in the right runs, sealed the fascia gap, checked back twice. Very knowledgeable.
Called Sunday morning, Derek was here Monday before lunch. Cut a small access hole, removed the animal, sanitized, patched drywall. Whole visit was under two hours. Nothing but professional.
Diego was patient with my questions and pet-safe about every product. Baited out, dusted voids, followed up at two weeks. Clean kitchen for the first time in a year.
Luis found the entry point in 15 minutes — a chewed gable vent I'd missed for a year. Exclusion mesh, one-way door, follow-up visit. Straightforward pricing, no upsell.
Trevor explained the whole maternity-season timeline and didn't try to rush the exclusion. Waited until pups could fly, sealed the ridge cap, guano cleanup was thorough. Have not heard a scratch in the attic since.
Two other companies just kept setting traps. Aaron actually sealed the sill plate and dryer vent — root cause. Traps stayed empty after the third week. Should've called them first.
