When we noticed the terrible smell under the house, we knew we had a skunk problem! I had seen some baby skunks a week or so back, and figured those were the culprits. Kevin came to the house and crawled underneath. He said he saw a carcass and one live skunk. He proceeded to dig out underneath our patio with a hand shovel in the 83 degree heat. He pulled out 2! desiccated carcasses, which had been there for awhile. He then determined he couldn't get to the fresher carcass, due to the construction of the patio. He crawled back under the house and, using a loop, caught the baby skunk and brought it out. Then he shocked me by saying "look, I couldn't resolve your issue, so I don't feel right charging you." Integrity??? In today's world????? Unbelievable!!! You can bet that next time I have a rodent issue, I'm calling Kevin! read more

Felt I needed to leave a review even though in the end did not use their services. Company was very responsive, customer service good and for a busy workaholic like me that is key. Hopefully will not have the need in the future, but if I do I'd use this firm on Customer service alone. read more

Kevin was great. He was very knowledgeable in dealing with our problem with raccoons getting up into the attics. Kevin spend more than 45 mins up in the attics to check for any animals and all the possible access for the animals to get in. He came back next day to put up metal mesh where they made a big hole. I would highly recommend Kevin if you have unwanted animal visitors at your house. read more

Kevin is the man! You don't need to shop around with other companies if you having any issues with raccoon. We encountered mother raccoon comes in and out my attic for about 3 months and she delivered 2 babies at bottom the space between exterior wall and drywall about 10 feet deep from accessible points in the attic. There is no way anyone can fit and drop that deep to take the babies out plus I trapped the mother raccoon in cage. Kevin was very honest and utilized his experiences to provide detailed options that allowed me to choose. I decided to completely resolve the issue that let Kevin to broke the exterior wall and took the babies out then resealed all the possible entries. Of course he helped me fixed the wall too. We were very satisfied about the outcome and the charges he billed. I will definitely recommend him to anyone who may have wild animal issues in the future. read more

I called a few places before I called this company. One still hasn't called me back and the other two couldn't come out until tomorrow. Kevin answered the phone, had time to talk to me, and said he could come out today! He couldn't give me a quote ahead of time, which is reasonable, but had to see the rodent problem first. He came out when he said, texted on his way, spent time going thru the house and garage, noticed some problem areas we didn't, even went on the roof and then said we didn't owe him anything. What great service, honest, helpful and good business ethic! We sent him a tip and he responded with thanks right away. I totally recommend this company for any rodent problems! read more

Kevin was great! We had a raccoon nesting with babies under the floorboards of our home, and needed them removed because they were causing damage. Kevin was so patient with all of our questions and concerns regarding humane methods of removal, since we didn't want them harmed. He went out of his way to swing by multiple times, and was great at communicating with us throughout the entire process. He really made a stressful situation bareable, so we highly recommend! read more

Kevin was Fast, Affordable, and knowledgeable. He took care of my problem with a skunk within 2 hours of my initial call to him. Call him!

You rarely get honesty & genuine concern from people nowadays, but after contacting Kevin for Svcs. last night regarding an issue I've experienced for the past 5 days with an intolerable skunk smell. He arrived this morning & IT'S SUNDAY! He's very knowledgeable in what he does, providing an understanding of the problem, he began his process, offered very valuable information as well as options to save me money. In this line of work my mind says people become desperate & are willing to pay top dollar just to eliminate the problem FAST... I was one of them .... This is obviously not the way he operates, according to my experience on the phone & in person. Def. the man to call read more

Kevin was so knowledgeable about the raccoon that we saw under our house and suspected might have babies. He genuinely cares about the welfare of the animals too which was a big deal to me. He communicated via text message. He was on time and friendly. His prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend. read more

I found Kevin from his 5 star reviews here. And boy does he live up to them! He was super timely and available when I called. I wasn't able to be present so he took video of the evidence of foot steps and fur from the opening the SKUNK was getting into. He placed a humane trap and got the skunk to come out. And it was big one! He removed and relocated it for my client who is a huge animal lover. It was totally worth his super reasonable price! He even closed off the location(s) and checked back the next day. Can't thank you enough Kevin! read more

We had some animal activity in our attic that was keeping us up all hours of the night. I contacted Kevin from Active Animal Trapping and couldn't be happier. He was so responsive on Yelp and was able to come out the next morning. Kevin found a mother raccoon and her newborn cub. He performed a safe and human "eviction process" by spraying the cub with pheromones. The mother raccoon subsequently retrieved her young cub and left our attic a couple of days later. Kevin returned and sealed up the entry point. Kevin was kind, professional and informative. I really appreciated the fact that he documented everything he was doing (e.g. taking pictures and video to show us what the issue was) and explained things as he went along. Moreover, his services are reasonably and competitively priced, especially when compared with other animal control companies in the area. read more

Kevin from active animal trapping was unbelievable. He was efficient and appropriate with every communication as I have small children around. He was COVID-19 aware and made us feel safe when had to enter the home, which was only once and very briefly. After he safely removed the animal from our attic area he followed up regularly to determine the status of our situation. It was apparent he is an animal lover as every act was humane. Importantly, he was extremely affordable. I highly recommend anybody who has a trapped animal, to use the services of Kevin at active animal trapping. This small business owner is five stars all the way. Thanks Kevin. Keep it up. Dave G. read more

Kevin to the rescue! What does one do when they wake up in the wee hours of dawn light and find a snake peeking it's head out of the toilet? Close the lid and frantically look up animal control companies and call as many as possible to see who can get there fast. Since most companies don't open up at 5:30am in the morning, I also called a few plumbers just to see if they knew of anyone who could help. Needless to say, the people I talked to have never heard of this happening before! Lucky for me, Kevin called me back soon after 7am. He promptly came over as fast as humanly possible (and as much as LA traffic allows) and calmly handled the situation. After taking a few pictures (he's big on photos if you haven't noticed) he then grabbed the snake, pulled out all good 4 feet or more of this python and took it outside! This took minutes from the time he walked up to our door. Most of the time was spent taking photos and staring at the snake after he pulled it out of the toilet. He was calm and collected the entire time which helps when you have frazzled nerves from a bad morning wake up! I'm sure Kevin will be posting pics shortly of this one. He couldn't believe it himself either when he first heard about it. Thanks Kevin! Knock on wood, but if I have any other animal control issues, I'll be calling Kevin. By the way, it's extremely rare that a snake could happen to lounge about in a toilet. It most likely came from the city sewer line and somehow it found it's way here. read more

Wow! I cannot say enough of the quality of work that I have received from Kevin. He spent a lot of time outside the parameters of the house and inside the attic making sure to check every single inch - literally. He set his large animal trap and caught a young opossum in my attic. I HIGHLY recommend Active Animal Trapping -- you will not be disappointed for he was very quick, thorough, articulate and very reasonably priced!! read more

This guy bailed on me twice to trap some skunks. Ended up finding someone else. Not recommended

Kevin seems like a good guy. His traps work. For the most part he got the job done. Three stars because he made promises he didn't keep, specifically to close up additional foundation vents. When you give someone your promise in business (in email!), you gotta stand by it. Update: Kevin finally came through and kept his word. read more

HE IS AMAZING!!!!!!! This guy loves animals and wants the best for these critters. Had what I thought was a dead opposum living by front and when he came to remove it was ALIVE! It had been playing dead for more than 8hours!! He removed it and believe offered a littfood before set him on his way read more

Kevin came to my apartment after my landlord called to get a critter trapped in my stove vent. He was wonderful, got the critter(rat), fixed it all up so no more critters can come through the vent again. Kevin, is a life saver. Highly recommend his service. Thank you Kevin!!! read more

Kevin is an expert at understanding animal behaviors and trapping them in the most humane way possible. His pricing is also very fair and reasonable. He won't try to sell unnecessary services to you. If he can't find any animal activities, he would tell you straight up. For the past few nights, I've been hearing animal(s) roaming around in the ceiling. I found Kevin on Yelp so I contacted him right away. He was a busy guy! It was hard to schedule with him but he showed up on time regardless. He wore a mask and made sure we're following the CDC guidelines. I was grateful that he went up to my attic and took pictures of what everything looks like. He also climbed up my roof and checked out the garage for any openings where rats could've crawled in. Luckily he said everything was sealed tight so no repairs were done. Overall, I appreciate his honesty, time, and efforts to help me find a solution. He also offered great tips on how to handle animals if I hear animal activities again. I highly recommend him. He's extremely professional, nice and polite! read more

Kevin is absolutely the best! After calling Kevin for a rodent problem, he was out the next morning with traps and found exactly where they were getting in. He filled several holes with concrete. Communicated everything he did and sent me videos and pictures since it was my rental house and I wasn't there. I'm happy I found Active Animal and Kevin and will be using them for all my animal control issues from now on. Thanks Kevin! read more

Kevin is so honest! We found a hornets nest in our house and I was making calls to get a quote for its removal. The first place I called said it would cost $145. When I contacted Kevin, he first asked that I send him a picture of the nest. When he saw the picture, he said that because the nest was actually quite small and in an accessible location (just above our front door), I could actually do it myself with a $4 hornet spray from the store. I had never heard of hornet spray before and I had no idea I could do such a thing by myself. Kevin sent me very accurate instructions about what to buy and how to use it. He said he felt it would be dishonest if he came by and charged me for something so simple. Needless to say, we bought the spray, used it as instructed, and boom! Hornets gone. Thank you Kevin! read more

I highly recommend Kevin of Active Animal Trapping. Kevin is professional, honest, very experienced and knowledgeable. He gets the job done very fast and His price is reasonable.

Kevin's a great guy. Very responsible. Very affordable. I highly recommend his services!

Kevin was very knowledgeable. I first inquired by asking about having a Raccoon under my house with 2 babies. He asked a few questions and the recommended we start off with the Eviction process where the mother raccoon will relocate and take her babies with her. Now a couple days later after having the eviction done she is not under my house anymore. I would definitely recommend him to other family and friends. read more

Kevin is awesome! My wife and I just bought a new home in Long Beach and a week before we closed we could smell a skunk odor from under the house. We hoped it was nothing but after we closed the smell was still there. We called around to see who could help us and everyplace charged a fee to come out and inspect, a fee for setting a trap and a fee for removal depending on the animal being dead or alive. Then we found Kevin. His price and service was so much better than any pest control company could ever offer. He worked hard on finding this animal. After setting a trap and nothing, he went in the crawl space to see what he could find. He knew that the skunk had to be dead because the smell was constant. So he collapsed the den and low and behold he found the dead skunk! Kevin was so proud in finding the animal and my wife and I were estastic. I highly recommend calling Kevin. He's professional, tenacious and loves what he does. read more

Kevin is the best! He came out right away, was very nice and he didn't try to lie to me or rip me off (I had another company come out who said we had a major rat infestation with 8 openings in the attic - Kevin checked it out and let me know there was minimal rat activity, and actually only 1 opening, showed me where on the outside of the house, was very informative and thorough). His prices are the best and he's very honest and genuine, so what else are you waiting for? This is the only guy I'll ever call again for pest problems! read more

Kevin at Active Animal Trapping is so good to work with. He responds very quickly, is punctual, works efficiently, and has very reasonable rates.

Kevin is really effective doing his job and responding to questions. He didn't try to sell us big job, he explained some choices and told us what we only need.

We had been having problems with some animal getting into our shed and eating the bird seed. We thought it was a rat and it just never set off the trap. We assumed it must be a big one so we set up a large live trap hoping it would walk in and we could just let it go somewhere. Much to our surprise, it wasn't a rat but a skunk we caught. We had no idea what to do. No way were we going to take a chance on getting sprayed. The city said basically good luck. I checked the internet for businesses that would remove skunks. I found Active Animal Trapping and reached Kevin. He had 5 stars on yelp and I see why. He was fantastic. We had already trapped the skunk but he said he would come and pick up the skunk and take care of it. He offered to come immediately. He was professional and knew exactly what to do. He transferred the skunk from our trap to his and did the whole process without getting sprayed. He was fearless. He even cleaned up the mess the skunk had left over night. We were extremely grateful and very pleased with his service. We would definitely call him again. read more

Great job removing our skunks! Super helpful and made it a point to always check in on us. Thank you again!! Would recommend.

I had a huge bee hive problem my entire family had supposedly gone unnoticed for awhile (with the hive about the size of 2 mature jack fruits) . When we finally took notice of it, we had found Kevin to our aid. Kevin was amazingly responsive to different ways of communication and he was able to schedule us in within the next day. After showing up, he worked diligently on the project high up on the tree. After the work was completed, he even filled in my family and I details regarding his procedures and informed us about future precautions. The price was also very reasonable for the amount of effort he put in. Overall I had a fantastic experience with Kevin and am tremendously comforted that I could walk out my front door again without the fear of being stung. Would 100% recommend! read more

I'd highly recommend Kevin from Active Animal Trapping. He is extremely professional, excellent communication and great prices. He was able to trap, and remove animals from my attic as well as seal off the hole in a efficient manner. He was also Covid aware which is great. read more

I did not expect to be writing a 5 star review for an animal trapping company. I needed help in a business I know nothing about and I am so impressed with Kevin after finding him on Yelp with so many great reviews. He is more than a professional, as he was honest and handled his job with a personal reliability. That is all I think we want when we search here on Yelp. He is definitely someone I want to rate highly. Thank you Kevin. read more

Backstory: We just bought our 1st home. From the start we had an issue with 2 baby raccoons living in the walls by our fireplace. We used an HOA recommendation to try and catch them. But nothing was caught. Thankfully they left the wall we sealed up the access point. So they couldn't get back in under the house. A few weeks later because of my crazy work schedule. I'm up until 2am or even later. I hear raccoons what sounds like under the house playing by my furnace. We were able to scary them away one night from under our deck. But i kept hearing it them under deck and it sounded like under the house. So we finally hit up Kevin. My husband found him on yelp and thank goodness. His prices are amazing. Our 1st night we set 2 traps and caught 2 juvenile raccoons. We reset them because we were looking for a family of 3, a mother and her 2 babies. The babies that were living in my walls when we first bought. We reset traps and continued to catch juvenile raccoons and 1 possum. Finally after a week of catching juveniles we caught the babies and then the mother the following night. Kevin was great! He was always a text away. He came by each morning after we caught raccoons. And thankfully when we caught the two babies he held onto to them for a day and when we caught the mom they were reunited! Thanks again Kevin! Pretty sure we caught the entire neighborhoods raccoons. But it's ok. I haven't heard anything since! read more

Kevin is the best. Easy to communicate and respond your texts right away. Quick appointment and show up ontime. The price is super reasonable. You don't even need to negotiate. He'll give you the best deal I promise. We found out that we had 2 skunks underneath the house. A mother and a baby. We were so terrified and thanks God we found Kevin on Yelp. He came and crawled underneath the house to inspect, then he put the trap outside. Within couple hours, 2 skunks were already trapped. Then he came the next morning to pick them up. He's very knowledgeable and professional. He even helped us to inspect the surrounding of the house and gave us advice to prevent future wild animals as well. He's the best, and I would give him 10 stars if I could. Thanks Kevin for helping us. You don't even know how much we're appreciated what you're doing. read more
