What our chimney animal work covers
An animal loose in the fireplace room
Sometimes an animal drops past the damper and ends up in the house. Close the interior openings to that room and keep people and pets out. If there is a door or window from that room to the outside, open it and leave the animal a way out.
Do not try to catch it, and do not handle a bat with bare hands, as FWC advises. Watch from a safe distance if you can, so you can tell us what it looked like. The chimney then needs attention too, because the way the animal came in is still open.
Methods that are ruled out for chimney animals
Some ways of dealing with animals are banned by Florida's rule, including most poisons and certain traps. Others are simply a poor idea in a chimney, such as smoke, fire or loud devices lowered down the flue.
Poison in particular tends to leave a dead animal somewhere inside the flue or the house. We use methods that fit the species, the rule and the chimney, and we explain them before we start. If a method needs a wildlife professional, we say so.
Checking the cap screen over time
A cap keeps working only while its screen is whole. Storms, falling branches and determined animals can tear or loosen it. Soot and debris can also clog the mesh.
Look at the top from the ground now and then, especially after a strong storm. If the screen looks damaged or the cap looks crooked, tell us. We can repair or replace it before an animal finds the gap. A quick look from the yard after any strong wind is usually enough to spot it.
Setting the scope for an animal job in Little Haiti
No two animal jobs in Little Haiti are the same, because the animal, the chimney and the timing all differ. The scope starts from what we find, not from a fixed package.
We list identification, removal or exclusion where it is ours, clean-out, repairs and the cap as separate items. If a wildlife professional is needed, the scope says so. Anything that changes once work starts is agreed with you before it is added. You pay for the steps you approved and no others.

Animal removal answers for Little Haiti homes
Can you remove an animal from my chimney right away?
It depends. The species, whether young are present and Florida's wildlife rules decide what can happen and when. After the free inspection we tell you what is allowed now and what the work involves.
Will you handle the animal or refer me to someone?
It depends on the animal, the stage it is at and the rules that apply. Some cases may need a wildlife professional as well as our team. We tell you which steps are ours and which are not.
Do you give a written record after the job?
Yes. It notes the animal found, what was removed, the damage seen and how the chimney was closed. If a wildlife professional handled a step, the record says so.
