Serving Oldham County's Historic Seat
La Grange combines small-town charm with big wildlife challenges. The historic downtown, surrounded by newer suburban development and rural Oldham County, creates a unique mix of squirrel control needs. From Victorian homes on Main Street to modern subdivisions on the outskirts, we handle it all.
La Grange's famous railroad running down Main Street isn't just a tourist attraction—it's a wildlife corridor. The railroad right-of-way, with its trees and undisturbed vegetation, acts as a green highway bringing squirrels directly into downtown. Properties within two blocks of the tracks report 30% more squirrel activity than those farther away. The trains don't bother the squirrels at all—they've adapted completely.

La Grange serves as the hub for rural Oldham County:
A homeowner in a beautiful 1890s Victorian on Main Street called us about squirrels in their third-floor attic. The home had ornate wooden brackets and decorative trim—gorgeous but full of gaps.
We found squirrels entering through gaps in the decorative cornice work and through a deteriorated chimney. The challenge was preserving the historic character while making it squirrel-proof. We installed custom steel mesh behind the brackets (invisible from the street) and rebuilt the chimney cap to match the original 1890s design.
"They understood that we couldn't just cover everything with modern materials. The solution looks period-appropriate but keeps squirrels out." - Downtown La Grange Homeowner
