Critter Removal &
Exclusion Services


Dixie Exterminators provides pest management services for rodents (rats and mice), squirrels, bats, raccoons, opossums, moles and other pests. Our wildlife team specialises in exclusion and trapping services to protect your home from pest infestations. We find the entry points and the holes where critters can get in. These may include roof voids, roof vents, gable vents, foundation vents, ridge vents and crawl spaces. We will seal all potential entry routes with the best quality materials for wildlife proof of your home. When needed, we can install new insulation and remove it. To finish the exclusion service, we will disinfect the problematic areas.

Our Approach to Pest Removal & Animal Control


Dixie specializes in native species and is highly respectful of the local environment and creatures.

With rapid growth in and around Atlanta, human development has disrupted animal habitats in these areas. This inevitably causes nuisance animals and other pests to come into contact with homes. These critters can pose the risk of causing property damage and unhealthy conditions.

Dixie strives to take a thoughtful, responsible approach to critter control.We recognize the threat that wild animals can pose through disease, annoying noises, and damage to property. Our wildlife technicians apply the most humane approach, but they are also effective in tackling the problem. Sometimes a pest can be removed alive, but in some cases they need to be killed to solve the problem. That's why all our technicians undergo regular on-the-job and classroom training for fast and efficient techniques designed to solve the problem of critter control.

Rodent Proofing & Removal


Uninvited Guests? We have the solution!

Rodent proofing is a vital part of a complete rodent removal program. The goal is to close all present and potential openings that can be used as entries for critters. This means sealing or screening openings and vents in buildings to prevent entry. It is important not to seal animals inside until bait, trapping and removal are complete. Our materials for rodent proofing are critter-resistant, including sheet metal, heavy wire, mesh, concrete and brick and mortar. Sometimes re-infestation can occur inside critter proofed buildings through new chew holes and when doors and windows are left open.

Rat & Squirrel Removal & Exclusion


Exclusion is the effective and durable way to keep rats and squirrels out of your house. Trapping, removal, and exclusion of rodents is the best possible method. Vent and roof openings are often to the most common entry points. If air conditioning or other utilities are routed through aluminum gutterspouting to reach the upper floors, then we will inspect and seal these areas to be sure that squirrels and rats are not able to use these for transportation into your house. These rodents are very mobile, and it is common for squirrels and rats to enter attics using gutters or overhanging trees to get to the roof.
