Small-town Mattawan, country-sized pest problems
Mattawan sits right on I-94 at the Van Buren County line, a short drive west of Portage and Kalamazoo. It has a village center, neighborhoods that keep growing around the schools, and orchards, fields and woodlots on every side. That mix means Mattawan families deal with both house pests and the animals that wander in from the open land around town.
Stray and feral cats
Stray cats are one of our most common calls from Mattawan. A cat that hangs around your yard may look harmless, but feral cats can carry diseases like feline leukemia (FeLV), feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), panleukopenia, distemper and rabies and pass them to your own pets. They also spray, fight under decks and get into crawl spaces.
We trap stray and feral cats humanely, without harming the animal, and trapped cats are taken to local animal control. Stray cats are covered by our flat-rate wildlife program:
- $625 flat rate for a 7-10 day trapping program
- Visits every 24-48 hours to check and reposition traps and remove animals
- Unlimited captures, with no per-animal fee
- If we aren’t making progress within the usual 7-10 days, we can add 3-5 days at no extra charge
See our stray cat removal page for details.
Raccoons, groundhogs, opossums and muskrats
Barns, sheds, decks and drainage ditches near farm fields attract raccoons, groundhogs and opossums, and muskrats show up along creeks and ponds. The same flat-rate wildlife program covers them. We handle red squirrels and flying squirrels in attics too. We also handle skunks. Call (269) 459-1788 for a quote.
Mice and the fall harvest
Every fall, when the fields around Mattawan are harvested, field mice lose their cover and head for the nearest garage, basement or crawl space. Our general pest control plans include rodent treatment and have a winter visit for the months when rodent pressure is highest. Plans start with a $165 initial visit, then:
- Organic Gold: $96.25 a visit, monthly, with unlimited free service calls
- Organic Silver: $99.25 a visit, 7 visits a year
- Organic Bronze: $112.93 a visit, quarterly
No contract. Our plans are pay-as-you-go, and you can cancel anytime. A $50 cancellation fee applies.
Scheduling: on every plan, the first two visits are two weeks apart.
Mosquitoes and ticks
Wooded edges and tall grass are tick habitat, and low ground holds water for mosquitoes. Our organic mosquito, flea and tick program runs monthly April-October. It’s $99 for yards up to 10,000 sq ft, plus $32 for each additional 10,000 sq ft.
