We had a fantastic experience and Nathan was phenomenal to work with. We had a squirrel trapped inside our wall and he was able to remove it and seal the hole it most likely got in from. He was fast, thorough, and personable. If we have any issues in the future we’ll definitely be using Advanced Wildlife and Pest Control again.

Ryan is professional, knowledgeable, and super helpful! I am so glad we were referred to Advanced Wildlife and given Ryan's name specifically. He has helped address a few different pest issues and is always extremely reliable and reassuring. Thanks, Ryan!

It started as a scratching noise in my attic, and not knowing what was up there it took awhile to find a place that was willing to come out and find out. I am so grateful that I found Advanced Wildlife and Pest Control. Evan came out to my home and was a wonderful professional young man. He talked to me about what my concerns were, was very helpful in explaining things, examined the inside of my home and outside (even climbing on the roof). He really cared about his job and making sure that I was happy with what he was suggesting. He is a great asset to this company and would recommend this company and hopefully you are lucky enough to have Evan come out and take care of the critters you have disrupting your home. Susan

Pros: easy to schedule appointments, office staff was helpful and responsive, our tech Ryan was super knowledgeable, friendly, and solved our mouse problem Cons: one of our dogs is mad she can’t take care of the mice herself now because they’re gone :) Highly recommend these folks!

Advanced Wildlife Services saved us and our wallets! We had a mouse invasion in our attic, and they came right away to check it out. They sealed the perimeter of our house filing all of the holes, checked the entire basement, and set out traps and bait (that is pet friendly!) It has been smooth sailing for the past year with no mouse activity in sight! Knock on wood haha. Evan Hummer is the person who comes every quarter and he truly is the kindest person and hard worker. He is efficient and so awesome to work with. Very happy with this company! We would recommend it to anyone and everyone!

I cannot say enough good things about this company. I messaged them, they responded almost immediately, set up an appointment, they came out and took care of the business at hand. Dylan is awesome and Advanced wildlife is very lucky to have him as an employee.

Our History

From a young age, founder Paul Winkelmann developed a strong passion for wildlife. He spent much of his childhood hunting and trapping. By the late 1980s, Paul wanted to see if he could turn his extensive wildlife knowledge into a business. In 1988, he and his wife, Jessica Winkelmann, founded Advanced Wildlife Control. We started small, but we have since grown to become the largest animal removal company in Wisconsin.

We originally started as a wildlife removal company and soon after expanded our services to include pest control. Locally headquartered in Slinger, Wisconsin, Advanced Wildlife and Pest Control is the most trusted animal and pest control company in Milwaukee and southeastern Wisconsin. Although much has changed since our founding in 1988, some things have remained the same. We continue to put customers first, maintain a dedication to quality, and strive to make the pest control experience easy, convenient, and hassle-free.

Advanced Wildlife Control operates under the names Advanced Wildlife Control Inc. and Advanced Wildlife and Pest Control. Our family-owned business is a member of the National Wildlife Control Operators Association (NWCOA), the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), the Wisconsin Wildlife Control Operators Association (WWCOA), and the Wisconsin Pest Control Association (WPCA). In 2018, Paul Winkelmann was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the NWCOA annual seminar for his time, work, and contributions to the wildlife control industry.

I, Paul Winkelmann, am truly blessed for all the blessings God has bestowed on our family and business. I greatly appreciate all the support and commitment from our wonderful customers, businesses, and neighbors we have served over the past 35 years.
