AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix, led by owner Joe Bruntz, is a state-licensed wildlife control company serving the greater Phoenix metro area.
Who We Are: Phoenix’s Trusted Wildlife Control Team
AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix has more than 20 years of combined experience helping homeowners and property managers throughout the Phoenix metro resolve wildlife intrusions. The team is certified and state-licensed, and every removal is carried out using humane trapping and exclusion methods that comply with Arizona State laws and regulations governing wildlife control. Rather than treating wildlife removal as a one-size-fits-all pest job, the team approaches each case based on the specific animal, entry point, and extent of damage involved.
We proudly serve the surrounding areas of Queen Creek, Litchfield Park, Cave Creek, Paradise Valley, Sun Lakes, Fountain Hills, and anywhere in the Phoenix Metro area! If you’re located anywhere in the broader Valley and are dealing with a wildlife issue, it’s worth reaching out to confirm coverage for your specific area.
Wildlife We Remove in the Greater Phoenix Area
The team handles a wide range of species commonly found in Valley homes and yards, including:
- Raccoons and skunks
- Bats and pigeons
- Squirrels, gophers, and rodents (rats and mice)
- Snakes
- Bobcats and javelina
- Geese, rabbits, badgers, and woodpeckers
Each species requires a different removal and exclusion strategy – bats, for example, are handled with species-specific timing and exclusion techniques due to their protected status and roosting behavior, while rodents typically require both trapping and entry-point sealing to prevent re-infestation.
How Our Wildlife Removal Process Works
Wildlife most often enters homes through attics, where insulation and warmth create ideal denning conditions – particularly during Phoenix’s cooler, drier winter months. Left unaddressed, animals nesting in attics can chew through electrical wiring (a fire risk), damage insulation, and leave droppings that attract additional pests and pose health concerns. The general process includes:
- Inspection – identifying the species involved and how it’s entering the structure.
- Humane trapping or exclusion – removing the animal using methods appropriate to the species and situation.
- Sealing entry points – preventing repeat intrusions.
- Cleanup and repair – addressing damage left behind.
Wildlife Removal from Attics

Wildlife finds comfort in attics because the heat and insulation from inside your home can create a warm, dry place for wildlife to live. Attic spaces provide excellent shelter with plenty of hiding spots and undisturbed nesting areas, making them an ideal habitat for wild animals such as raccoons or squirrels. This is especially true in Phoenix during the winter months when it rains infrequently.
However, wild animals living in your attic can cause damage to your roof, attic, or surrounding areas. This damage can range from broken pipes to the destruction of insulation as a result of wildlife nesting in your home’s ceiling.
Their droppings can cause far more damage if it gets into your home. The droppings will eventually dry out and start to smell, attracting even more wildlife and insects that want in on the food. Wildlife droppings may also be carrying any number of diseases or bacteria as well which when inside your house could make you sick.
We will get them out safely and humanely from your home. For any wildlife problem, call AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix today!

Phoenix Wildlife Control and Damage Repair

Wildlife can damage your property in many ways. Most commonly, wild animals will damage your home by chewing on electric wires and can cause fires within the walls of your house or building. In some cases animals will take up residence in an attic or other areas of the dwelling, causing a large amount of damage to insulation and drywall.
Getting rid of your wildlife is only half the fight. A true Phoenix wildlife removal solution means you need someone who can secure all the entry holes (where your furry pals entered in the first place), and repair the damage these pests caused when destroying your wooden panels, soffits, eaves, and vents.
You would need a company that can fix the damage that wildlife has done to your home or business so that things don’t get worse. AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix is here for any wildlife problem you might have.
Attic Damage, Cleanup, and Repair After Wildlife Removal

Once an animal is removed, the damage it leaves behind often needs attention. Wildlife nesting can destroy insulation, damage roofing and pipe structures, and leave contaminated droppings that require proper cleanup. AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix offers attic cleanup and insulation replacement services alongside removal, along with dead animal removal for animals that have died in inaccessible areas of a structure – a service that also addresses the odor and sanitation issues that come with it.
Dead Animal Removal
Dead animals in the attic smell terrible and typically are a health hazard. They can attract disease-carrying pests and cause structural damage to homes, or other buildings by the rotting process that occurs if not properly removed.
Dead animal removal is the process of safely removing the dead animal from your attic which also includes the complete cleaning and deodorizing of your attic. Dead animals emit a putrid odor that is difficult to remove, so it’s important you hire experts around Phoenix, AZ that know how to remove these odors from your home or business.
Raccoon Removal
Raccoons are one of the common pests in Phoenix. Due to their mischievousness, raccoons can cause a lot of damage. They can climb into an attic and tear up the insulation and wiring that could lead to water damage inside your home. They can also tear roof shingles, rip down gutters and soffits, pull apart window screens and doors in search of food or entry into a building. Raccoons will make dens in areas that have water sources and food available for them to eat such as garbage cans or dumpsters.
Phoenix raccoon removal is a process that can be done quickly by professionals trained to handle this type of wildlife issue. If you have raccoon removal problems, don’t hesitate to give us a call!

Rat Control
Rats can be a source of health hazards to humans. Rats are carriers of many diseases that can be transmitted through a bite or by contaminating food that has come in contact with rat urine and feces. Aside from that, rats can also cause structural damage to your house by gnawing on wires and wood.
Rats are pain and that’s a FACT. We will get rid of rats (pronto!) and tidy up the mess they left in their wake. Rat removal should only be done by wildlife control specialists like AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix.
Our Phoenix Wildlife Control pros will come and inspect your property to see where the rats are coming from. We will need to access the attic areas of your home to determine whether there are any openings. These openings need to be sealed up. Then, our wild animal control team will set out traps near these small entry points.
If you are looking for a humane wildlife control company for your rat control needs in Phoenix, give us a call today!
Bat Control
Bats around your property can create a mess and can be dangerous. Bats in the attic are one of the most common wildlife problems homeowners face, so it’s important to get bats out of your attic as quickly as possible.
Phoenix bat removal is important for a variety of reasons. First, like any other animal, bats can carry harmful diseases that can be transmitted from one bat to another. Second, bat droppings (also known as “bat guano”) can be toxic to pets and your household when having contact with it. Breathing in these fumes can be dangerous if inhaled for a longer time or the concentration levels are high enough.
Bats are the last thing you want hanging over your head. If you need your bats removed, we will safely get rid of them and secure the potential entry points they used to gain entry to your home in the first place.

Squirrel Removal
Squirrels are tricky creatures to get rid of. They are intelligent and can find ways into your home, including going up the chimney or even accessing a rooftop by jumping from tree branch to roof gutter.
Squirrels have been known to gnaw on electrical wires and enter buildings through tiny holes in roofs or walls; this causes structural damage when squirrels gnaw on wood beams and joists, chewing wires inside walls. If they are nesting in the attic of your home then squirrels can have a direct line to your roof. They will chew holes through shingles and will cause water damage by flooding into the house from high winds.
Phoenix squirrel removal is necessary if you have a squirrel infestation. In the case of squirrels getting into a Phoenix home or commercial building then it is important to call for professional help because this could only escalate without being addressed immediately.

Bird Control
Birds can be a big issue when they decide to roost on your property. Whether it’s bird droppings or nests, the birds can be disruptive for any business. Bird droppings can cause structural damage and health problems.
Bird droppings are acidic and corrosive with the capability to deteriorate many property types. They are known for carrying diseases, bacteria, and fungi that can be transferred to you or your family members if they come into contact with droppings. They also often build nests inside vents which clog the vent system and impede airflow leading to low temperatures (talk about heating/cooling costs).
The professionals at AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix will resolve your bird control problem.
