Guides for Michigan Homeowners
The questions that come before the call: what is up there, what Michigan's rules allow, and what the work is likely to involve.
Calls route by ZIP where an operator covers the address, and otherwise come to Local Core Group, which runs this site. Or send a request.

Describe what you are hearing
When it happens, where in the house, and what you have seen outside. Your call routes by ZIP to an independent wildlife control operator where one covers your address, and that operator settles price and timing with you. Where none does, it comes to Local Core Group, which runs this site.
