Wildlife removal and exclusion for Midlands properties. Getting the animal out is half the job. Sealing the way it got in is what keeps it from happening again.
Wildlife can do serious damage to a house quickly: chewed wiring, torn insulation, contaminated attics, and structural gaps that let the next animal in. Once something has found your attic or crawl space, the clock is running.
Our specialists are trained on current removal and exclusion methods, and the approach always has two halves. Removal on its own is a temporary fix. Exclusion is what makes it permanent.
Years of Local Service
local & Family-Owned Since 1955
Modern Exterminating has been the longest-standing, local and family-owned pest control company serving the area since 1955. Now in its third generation, the company runs by a simple standard, a PHD in customer care: professional, honest, and dependable, on every visit.
Identify the species and how it got in, remove it, seal every access point, then repair what the animal damaged.
We inspect to determine the species, where it is getting in, and what drew it there. Identification drives everything that follows.

You get your removal options explained, along with the exclusion work needed. Timing matters, because some species have seasonal restrictions.
3
Trapping and removal by trained specialists, including dead animal removal where an animal has died in a wall or crawl space.

Every access point sealed, damaged entry areas repaired, and the conditions that attracted the animal corrected.
Modern stands behind its pest control work. If a problem comes back within a reasonable time after service, contact our team and we’ll help address it according to the service plan.
Quick answers on the signs of a wildlife problem, what exclusion actually means, and why removal on its own does not hold.
Scratching or scurrying in walls and attic, droppings or a persistent odour, damage to soffits and vents, and a sudden increase in fleas or ticks.
Sealing every access point after the animal is out: vents, roofline gaps, chimney openings, and the places where utility lines enter the structure.
Because the opening stays. Wildlife returns to established routes, and an open roofline gap will be used again within days.
Chewed wiring is a fire hazard. Droppings and the parasites animals bring in carry disease. Damaged insulation shows up on your energy bill.
Since 1955 we have handled wildlife work across Columbia, Lexington and the Lugoff-Elgin area. Our exclusion services cover bats, snakes, skunks, squirrels, raccoons, opossums, groundhogs, armadillos, moles, voles, rats and mice.
Dealing with a species not on that list? Call us. We will tell you honestly whether it is our job or whether you need someone else, rather than taking the work and figuring it out afterwards.
Most wildlife entry comes down to a handful of predictable weak points.
If you are already hearing something in the attic, sealing it in makes the problem worse. Call before you close anything up.
Yes. Our specialists use trapping and exclusion methods appropriate to the species, and we follow South Carolina regulations on wildlife handling and relocation.
Yes. Dead animal removal is part of our wildlife service, along with cleanup of the area where the animal was.
Appointment length depends on the treatment and property. Our team will explain what to expect, provide an arrival window, and call on the way.
Modern uses low-toxicity, professional products and follows service-specific safety requirements. Some treatments require people or pets to stay out of treated areas until the materials are dry or for a specified period.
