About Michigan Critter Catchers^TM

Michigan Critter Catchers^TM, a locally-owned and operated animal control business located in Oakland County, was born from a sincere belief in practicing humane wildlife control while providing customers with exceptional service, honesty and integrity. Exemplary service begins with our fun-loving team focused on listening - and responding - to your unique needs. Our valued employees drive the success of our business through a dedication to quality service and mutual respect for wildlife. 

• First-hand experience is backed by a Biologist with a Bachelors from Oakland University, Masters Degree earned from Wayne State University, and a Residential Builder License.

• We are the only bat exclusion company approved by the Organization for Bat Conservation, located behind the Cranbrook Institute of Science in Bloomfield Hills, MI.

• In 2008, we established a Bat Educational Grant to bring OBC's Live Bat Experience into Michigan Nature Centers and other venues.  We continue the support to this day, as a way to give back to the community and inspire future scientists.  Over 38 events have been hosted or are scheduled in SE Michigan through 2012.

• A photograph of our work was featured in Bats of Michigan.  This book was authored by Dr. Allen Kurta from Eastern Michigan University, and he is considered the authority on bats in our state. 

• Through our Scholarship program, we supported a research project at the Center for North American Bat Research and Conservation.  This bat center is located at Indiana State University and staffed by one of the largest teams of bat biologists in North America.  In 2012, the program was made available to students at Michigan Universities.

• We attended the 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 Michigan Bat Working Group meetings at the US Fish and Wildlife Service office to obtain information on the latest rabies and white nose syndrome.  We were the only private industry represented at the meeting.
