7 Star Animal Control Helps Miami Valley Residents Evict Unwanted Houseguests

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio – As warmer weather arrives in the Miami Valley, so do some unwelcome visitors—from raccoons in the attic to squirrels in the crawlspace. That’s where Seven Star Animal Control steps in, and during a recent visit to the Clark County Home and Garden Show, the Pitts Stop team caught up with owner Jacob to learn how he helps homeowners reclaim their space.

Based in Springfield, Seven Star Animal Control specializes in the humane removal of nuisance wildlife from residential and commercial properties. Whether it’s raccoons, bats, skunks, groundhogs, or squirrels, Jacob handles it all with a passion rooted in a love for animals and a strong desire to help people feel safe and comfortable in their homes.

“When someone gives me a call because they hear something in the attic or walls, the first thing I do is a full property inspection,” Jacob explained. “From there, I determine what kind of animal we’re dealing with and decide if trapping, exclusion, or repairs are needed. Every job is different.”

Jacob recounted one of his most memorable calls—a raccoon and its young had taken up residence in a barn. After safely trapping the adult, one of the young climbed up his arm and perched on his shoulder.

“That’s probably the craziest thing that’s ever happened,” he said.

With over five years of experience in animal control, Jacob offers more than just removal services. He also performs exclusion work to prevent future intrusions, ensuring homes are sealed properly and protected long-term.

The business is gearing up for a busy season as spring brings increased animal activity.

“This is when animals are mating and raising their young,” Jacob said. “They’re looking for shelter, and often that means your attic or crawlspace.”

Seven Star Animal Control is fully equipped for nearly any situation, with traps, ladders, sealant materials, and even pesticide sprayers ready to go in Jacob’s mobile unit.

As a small, locally owned business, Jacob serves as the direct point of contact for all clients.

“When you call Seven Star, you’re talking to me—the owner,” he said. “You’re not chasing down a manager or dealing with a random technician. I handle the job from start to finish.”

If you hear mysterious sounds in your attic or find signs of wildlife in your home, Seven Star Animal Control is just a phone call—or click—away.
