More than removal: The Irvine franchise prioritizes exclusion services to address the root causes of critter invasions for raccoons, snakes, bats, rodents and more.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Irvine, CA, May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) \u2013 Critter Control, an industry leader in the humane removal of nuisance wildlife, is proud to announce the opening of its newest franchise location in Irvine, California. Owned and operated by longtime area resident Guru Kumara, the Irvine franchise will serve Western Orange County with a mission to not only remove unwanted wildlife \u2014 such as raccoons, rodents, snakes and bats \u2014 but to go one step further by addressing why these animals are entering homes in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhile most companies focus only on critter removal, what truly protects families in the long run is exclusion work \u2014 identifying and sealing entry points, removing attractants like rodents, and preventing the problem from recurring,\u201d said Guru Kumara, Owner of Critter Control of Irvine. \u201cJust removing a snake doesn\u2019t solve the problem if rats are still inside the walls attracting them. We take the time to understand the full story: why the animal came in, what made the home inviting and how to make sure it doesn\u2019t happen again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether it\u2019s a rattlesnake relaxing in the garage or raccoons nesting in the attic, wildlife intrusion often points to deeper issues such as structural vulnerabilities or underlying pest presence. Critter Control of Irvine focuses on a comprehensive approach: inspecting the property, removing the animal safely, and then implementing exclusion solutions to keep homes protected long after the critter is gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cRattlesnakes and other dangerous critters can be part of day-to-day life in the Orange County area. Residents don\u2019t need to live in fear, but they should be alert and ready to act if the time comes,\u201d said Joe Felegi, General Manager of Critter Control. \u201cGuru\u2019s deep knowledge of both the local environment and the exclusion-first model of Critter Control makes him a great asset to the people of Orange County.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Established in 1983, Critter Control is a pioneer in humane and preventive wildlife management. Every new franchise launch includes intensive training in exclusion methods \u2014 from inspecting crawlspaces and sealing vents to addressing secondary issues like pest infestations and structural damage. This hands-on preparation, conducted at the company\u2019s Atlanta headquarters, ensures that each franchisee is equipped to deliver lasting results.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIrvine Franchise Launch Announcement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
