When we called about our skunk problem, they were professional and very kind. I loved that they provide the service add ons and give you the options on what you want to do. Felt like an easy process and based on the quotes I received from some other places, these guys were the most reasonably priced and STILL did an excellent job. There were 2 skunks that were captured within 48 hours. I really enjoyed the service from the this business. read more

Will definitely be using this service again. James was professional and super helpful over the phone! He answered all of my questions and valued my concerns. A tech came out within the HOUR! We were having issues with skunks and they were efficient with the inspection and placement of traps! I absolutely how humane this business is! Not to mention the price I paid was affordable compared to other places I called around for quotes. read more

I hardly ever post reviews, except for the worst and the best of the best. This company was responsive, communicative, reasonably priced, efficient, and honest. I spoke with about 5 companies and every one was clearly interested only in getting you to buy costly packages with extra fees for everything! Brandon, the manager, is amazing. He loves his job and is committed to protecting wildlife, as well as helping customers manage potentially disastrous animal interactions. He inspected my property personally after several calls and countless questions and a lot of skepticism. They performed as promised and trapped a make raccoon who broke in to my very large above ground basement by removing a solid grate hidden behind a shed! read more

Thankful to One Stop for the "door" that got the raccoons out from under our house & released them back to the outdoors! Prompt service & good value! read more

I needed a skunk removed. When I first talked to them it was a little unclear on what the cost was what I needed. After I paid them then I saw lots of things were add ons. Not saying dishonest but not clear. They said they don't kill them but were evasive when pinned down on that. The wildlife rescue places claim that all the pest guys kill them. So we bailed on them after 4 days and no skunks caught in their cages. We hire another guy who got the skunks out in a day, no murder. So, I think they are probably fine for some things but for skunks, I'd try someone else. They did give a very partial refund since they caught nothing. read more

Top-notch service relocated 3 raccoons: prompt, responsive, and highly effective! Highly recommend. At least one raccoon took up residence in my palm tree (one story up, about 10 feet from the downstairs door and at eye level with our living room windows upstairs). Raccoon feces can be highly toxic plus this raccoon was unafraid, territorial and growly and made noises much of the night; I don't want to risk my visitors/houseguests having a bad interaction. Berkeley Vector Control told me that they do not cover private property but there are raccoon relocation services and a designated area for releasing them. I opted for the $425 package, which includes up to 2 adult raccoons and any babies, and the option to pay $100 for any additional adult racoons. They promptly brought a trap and set it up. It uses dry pet food and no poison, and latches closet without injuring the animal. Two different uncontrolled off-leash tiny dogs came onto our property. (Neighbors, please control your off-leash dogs! another good reason to use an approach where nothing toxic or injurious is involved). One ate some of the food and the other ate all of it. They didn't get caught in the trap or spring it. The service talked me through how to reset the door; when I asked if I should buy dry pet food since I was going to the grocery store, they said they'd be in the neighborhood and can refill it, which they did. That night, the first racoon was caught. They picked it up the next day, confirmed it was male (babies more likely if female, plus we ascertained there were no baby noises from the tree; they would have made noises if parentless overnight). I saw two more adult-ish raccooons wandering free (I think these two live on an adjacent property, not my tree). They set out the second trap (avoiding Fridays so they don't have to pick up on weekends); it too quickly caught one and they took it to relocate, and the same happened with the third racooon. read more

Responsive. They understood my problem (raccoons in attic) and had a clear plan to address it. James was great to interact with. They handled the whole thing quickly and humanely. Me and the raccoons appreciated it. read more

I'm reaching out regarding the rat control service he provided at my property approximately two months ago, for which we paid $690. At that time, James placed baits and sealed entry points. Unfortunately, we've noticed signs that rats are still active. James came back and discovered that the baits left in one section of the basement were eaten, indicating that not all entry points were successfully sealed. This suggests the initial service did not fully resolve the issue. Given the short time since the treatment and the ongoing problem, I request a follow-up visit at no additional charge to inspect the property, reassess the exclusion work, and complete any necessary sealing or treatment. James said he spoke to his manager and he will give one bait treatment and seal the hole on 6/13/25. In the morning of 6/13, I sent him a text message and he replied that the appointment was cancelled and made another appointment on 6/20. On 6/20 he said the appointment was cancelled again and would be changed to 6/23. I was not available on 6/23, I contacted him but he didn't reply to me. read more

A large deceased raccoon in a tight space between two garages on a gloomy Wednesday morning. One Stop Wildlife Management was the second shop I called to ask about services, availability and prices, and was the only shop I called back. Brandon stopped by within the hour, removed the raccoon and was soon on his way to rescue another. Brandon was a pleasure to work with, and One Way will be my first call when a raccoon, opossum or skunk needs rescue or removal from our neighborhood. read more

Brandon was great! I had a dead pigeon on my balcony that I didn't want to handle myself. I called him, and within about 30 minutes he disposed of it. I was so relieved to have the task taken care of! read more

One Stop Wildlife Management was very helpful! He was able to come out within two hours of me calling for an appointment and did a thorough search. We thought we had a raccoon in our furnace space. He checked all around our house and the space. I highly recommend this company. read more

Great job. Quick- there in under an hour from the call. Helpful and friendly. Answered my questions and we got the skunk out of the trap and back to its regular habitat. read more

A baby raccoon got trapped in the corner of our fence in our backyard and we called One Stop Wildlife Management and Brandon came out to our home within an hour and was able to get the raccoon safely and humanely out of its stuck position in the fence and did it all very quickly and very professionally. We are thankful and we would be more than happy to hire him and his company again in the future. read more

I had an appointment scheduled with them this morning and they didn't show up. Called to find out what was going on and was given an excuse about other issues having come up. I expect a professional business would call their existing appointments to reschedule in such a case. Terrible service. read more

I can't say enough good things about One Stop Wildlife Management. Over the last several months, I woke several mornings to a very strong skunk odor in my back yard that took over a week to dissipate. There was never any visible signs of skunk. When it happened for the third time, I decided it was time for professional intervention. I was fortunate to find One Stop. I called them. They came out within 24 hours of my call to assess the situation and recommend how to handle it. They identified that I had a dead skunk under a small low to the ground deck at the rear of my yard. It was raining that day so no further work could occur. We scheduled an appointment for the following week. When they had a cancellation for the day after their assessment visit, they reached out and came and completed the work. They removed the skunk and then thoroughly secured the area under the deck and under the fence at the rear of my yard to prevent future intrusions. The work was completely thoroughly and efficiently. James was careful with the plants and the watering system in the area where he was working. Nothing was damaged as a result of the work. The price they charged was very fair for the scope of the work they did. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I hope that I do not have any future issues with wildlife in my yard but if I do, I know who I will call. read more

Excellent job by One Stop Wildlife Management. They came on the same night after my call to setup the trap by the crawlspace opening. And they captured the 1st Opossum (1.5 ft long) immediately on 2nd day. Initially I thought I had Raccoons but it turned out to be Opossum. Then 7 days later, their trap captured the 2nd Opossum (similar size). Their price for initial setup fee and follow-up fee per capture are very reasonable too. read more

One Stop Wildlife Management - 1.5 ft long Opossum - Pest Control Near Me - Oakland, California

We found an opossum in our garage over the weekend. Local animal control was closed and we were directed to the Berkeley police non-emergency line, who advised that we open the garage door and hope the possum left on its own accord. She was not interested in doing so. I did a frantic Yelp search and found OSWM. It was 30 minutes after the listed business hours on Sunday, but Brandon answered the phone and arrived within 20 minutes. He removed the possum within a few minutes. I am extremely grateful and thrilled with the service. read more

Well I'd give him 10 stars if I could. Honest, nice, knowledgeable, trustworthy - this is a really great guy who offers a good service under difficult circumstances. read more

I highly recommend One Stop Wildlife Management. We had skunks trying to make a home in our crawl space, and I hired another company to address the issue. I wish I had started with One Stop Wildlife Management! The other company set up traps, which caught a raccoon. When I called to inform them that a raccoon was trapped, I requested that it just be released, not relocated. At that time I was informed that they would euthanize any wildlife caught in the trap and that the raccoon would be neither relocated or released, but killed. I was at work and not able to release the raccoon myself, and found One Stop Wildlife Management through yelp. I explained the situation to James, and within 30 minutes he had gone to my house and freed the raccoon. I had the other company remove their traps, and James came out the following day to take over the job with the skunks. James was incredibly nice, professional and thorough. I am very happy with this company. read more

A few years later, another skunk. Once again, Brandon/One Stop was awesome. He replied to a text at 6:30am and was at my house at 8:30am- wow. Couldn't be happier with the service, responsiveness, etc. I'm sure I'll be calling back again soon! read more

Highly recommended. I called around and they had the best price. James came the same day of calling and initiated the trapping process. After trapping two raccoons and confirming our attic was animal free, James then completed animal proofing the point of entry (one week process). Overall, James was professional, knowledgeable, and completed the service as we agreed upon. read more

Used One Stop in 2020 when we discovered a skunk in our yard. One Stop removed the pest and set traps for 1 week. The cost was affordable compared to other providers. However, over the course of the week, they were unreliable and would not show when they said they would and did not communicate. We finished the week and left it at that. 1 year later we are dealing with skunks again and contacted One Stop for removal. They canceled without notice and refused to reschedule because our home is in San Francisco. Although their price is competitive, I do not recommend their service as they are unreliable and when dealing with pest in and around your home a professional service is required. read more

We had an issue for weeks with a raccoon pulling up our newly sodded lawn after a remodel. We tried several different forms of deterrence but the raccoon was quite persistent. Brandon was polite, patient and thorough as he explained their humane raccoon removal process. Thank you Brandon for the same day service, and helping us sleep comfortably at night not worrying about our lawn! read more

Brandon was efficient and quick to respond on learning our raccoon situation. He was understanding and did a thorough job if explaining his process and technique behind catching the animal. We were successful in catching the raccoon and resolving the issue in 2-3 days. I would definitely recommend Brandon and his team for any on your wildlife related issues!! read more

Brandon and their team was very responsive and nice to communicate with. We had a mother raccoon outside while her baby raccoons inside our garage, and the mother raccoon went mad and tried very hard to get in. Brandon and his teammate came over on Sunday to rescue the baby raccoons and fixed the problem. read more

A raccoon and her small litter were living in our crawl space underneath the house. OSWM came out within an hour of when we called them and explained the situation. If you have any issues with wildlife, I highly recommend OSWM - they'll get the job done quickly, efficiently, and humanely. read more

Excellent service . I was having issues with a couple skunks that had found their way into my crawl space and were spraying regularly. When I called One Stop they were able to get someone out to inspect the same day. The manager was very thorough in explaining cost and procedure. I highly recommend these guys they know what they are doing and super affordable. read more

Brandon and One Stop Wildlife Management are fantastic- I can't recommend him enough! A raccoon tried to break it into our yellow jacket trap and got caught in some string and a bush behind our fence. We called 5 local county and city agencies with no luck- they all pointed us to each other. Finally, I reached out to Brandon for a quote, and he responded very quickly. He came to our home within the hour with all of his materials, cut the raccoon out of the string/bush, and put it safely in a crate to relocate. He was really wonderful to work with- fast, friendly, and professional. Would work with him again anytime. Thank you, Brandon! read more

We'd actually like to give One Stop Wildlife Management 4.5 out of 5 stars! One early morning we heard scratching and scuffling in the attic/what sounded like between the walls of our 2nd floor (kids) bathroom. I had yelped One Stop Wildlife Management and decided to ask for an initial inspection. They were immediately available the same day I called. James was very warm, knowledgeable and was able to address all of my questions. With a one-way exit door installed, the mama raccoon came out as James predicted but she got back through into our attic again by breaking through another brittle vent on our roof. We ended up replacing all six vents on the roof, the mama raccoon eventually came out again but was starting to hide out in our next door neighbor's space. After a thorough attic inspection and cleaning, James discovered five raccoon babies in our attic. We ultimately decided to lay a trap to capture the mama and reunite her with her babies which One Stop Wildlife Management secured in another location. All in all, it took five days and a little over $1000 (which compared to some other vendors seemed fairly reasonable) to address the vent replacements, and animal removal. We really liked James - he was very friendly and nice but wish he had been a little more prepared, e.g., he used our ladders to get onto the rooftop when he said he would need to return to the office to grab theirs, had asked for a box to put the babies in which he ended up providing, and would have been nice if they had shoe covers so not to mess the interior of the house since we have carpeted floors upstairs to get into the attic. There was also one day where James had an emergency animal removal for the state but there was a lack of communication with my husband so he was wondering when James was returning - he ended up coming later at the end of the day and took care of everything. All in all, James was great and Brandon was very responsive whenever I messaged him. We give One Stop Wildlife Removal 4.5 out of 5 stars and would definitely use them again! Thank you so much guys. We can now sleep soundly at night! read more

Truly amazing and professional. I called One Stop Wildlife Management because I was experiencing loud noises coming from my attic at night and early morning continuously for 3 days. I was able to make an appointment for the same day which was phenomenal. Brandon was able to come by and provide an inspection of my attic. He discovered a family of raccoons entering my home through a broken vent. He explained the process of humanely evicting the family of raccoons from my attic and making a permanent repairs to the attic. He was very thorough and professional when explaining which made it such an amazing experience. The process was done within 8days and the safety and peace of my family was restored thanks to One Stop. read more

We called on a Sunday morning and were quoted a very reasonable amount because the Skunk was already in the trap. He arrived within the hour as they said and were done in 10mins. Easy and responsive! Highly recommend! read more

I called and spoke with Brandon as I was in desperate need of a raccoon removal from under the house. He said he could remove the animal the same day. He arrived on time and the process was super fast. Brandon and his helper were so kind and sprayed the area after the raccoon was removed. I would totally recommend them to anyone. read more

Wow! really great work you guys. I thought i would never be able to get rid of the raccoon messing up my backyard and crawling into our attic but with the efficacy of One Stop they are no longer a problem . Would definitely recommend them for your animal trapping needs read more

Awesome flat rate. Extremely professional and great work. Amazing service. Would definitely recommend if you are having issues with animals invading your home . read more

I hope everyone uses one stop when it comes to wildlife control these guys are amazing  I was having an issue with a skunk living under my shed in my backyard there was a pungent smell all over my backyard which made it impossible to relax back there. I set an appointment with Brandon and he came out within a few hours of our conversation. He did an inspection and explained the process of trapping and skunk proofing my shed to ensure there was no access for any invaders in the future. He was extremely thorough. Brandon made repairs to the foundation of the shed after successfully catching the skunk and guaranteed the repair for a year. There was no harm to the animal which made me like this company even more. No doubt a 5 star service. read more

We hired Brandon to deal with a family of four raccoons that were frequenting our back yard and getting way too comfortable. By the time he was done he'd removed nine (9!) raccoons and sealed up under our cottage and deck so that future invaders would find the area less hospitable. We haven't see a raccoon since. Very satisfied. read more

Very fast response, amazing service, effective process on removing skunks . I'm more than satisfied with this company!

Awesome. I sent a message through Yelp late at night and heard back almost immediately. They were at my house first thing in the morning to pick up the animal. Brandon was so kind and courteous, and the process was quick. Hopefully I won't need their services again, but if I do, they'll be the first company I call. read more

They were prompt, professional and reasonably priced. Really appreciate that they came the same day, let alone within 2 hrs of my call.

I called One Stop early one morning after waking up to newly laid sod being dug up by critters. Brandon picked up and came by the same day to assess the situation. Over the next couple of weeks, Brandon's strategically placed traps caught several skunks and raccoons. Brandon was quick to respond to my texts, and was friendly and helpful with resolving the critter problem. read more
