If you have an animal problem and need assistance, there are several free animal control resources in Akron, Ohio. The first thing you can try is your local Summit County animal services, or the free Akron animal control services by calling (330) 375-2320. They may be able to help you with your critter problem, and possibly offer free raccoon removal or free snake removal. But they primarily deal with dogs and cats, and might not help with wildlife. For wildlife-specifice issues, try the Ohio Wildlife Commission at (330) 644-2293. They do free wildlife control in Akron and all of Ohio. But they often deal with special cases like bears, or illegal hunting. They might not help you with specific cases in your house, like free rodent control or free squirrel removal. At a more local level, you can call Akron Wildlife Rehabilitation at (330) 773-6789 for local free animal removal and trapping, and they may help with providing free critter removal in Akron. But this organization, like all wildlife rehab, mostly focuses on healing and caring for sick or injured wildlife. There's no business that provides free pest control in Akron that will remove wild animals that I know of, like free bat control or free rat removal. Sometimes, for a case of animals in an attic, or wildlife problems on private property, you need to hire and pay for wildlife removal, and if so, I recommend Precise Wildlife Services at 330-615-1600. Some people wonder if animal control costs money, or how much does animal removal cost. For that, call 330-615-1600 and ask. Of course, you can be sure to get free pest wildlife removal if you solve the problem yourself, so read my Do-It-Yourself page for more hints. Finally, you can call the local Akron police department.

Akron wildlife issues:

This blood will be found at varying distances from the track with the distance being regulated by the force of the contractions and the size of the wound. Sometimes the only blood that can be found will be on trees and bushes which the pest critter has neighborhooded against in passing. This seldom occurs until the pest critter has stopped running and clotting has slowed the flow to a trickle. Very few pest control operators will follow a wounded nuisance Akron wildlife long enough for it to reach this stage of bleeding. Nuisance wildlife which I have attempted occurred early in the time of year. Two nuisance wildlife were standing on hardcritter traps growth about seventy-five yards from my position. I effort to remove a pest animal one of them and they both ran.

I could follow their course with my eyes but could not observe their actions and the trees and underneighborhood prevented me from obtaining a second effort to remove a pest animal. I was as sure as a nuisance wildlife control professional can be that I had made a solid hit in or near the shoulder or lung area. I was so sure of my effort to remove a pest animal that I did not go to check where the Akron pest critter had been standing but angled off in the direction of their flight with the intention of picking up a blood neighborhood and following it for perhaps fifty yards to my dead nuisance wildlife. I found no neighborhood. The ground very dry, covered with dry leaves. The squirrels had been burrowing in these leaves so that made it impossible to follow any kind of a track, let alone find one. Not understanding the lack of a blood neighborhood, I returned to the spot where I had been standing and from there to the first location of the Akron pest critter.

I found a rift of hair which proved that I had hit the pest critter. Beyond the hair, I found two slivers of bone and a small piece of lung tissue. I identified one of these bone slivers as a piece of rib. The other I thought was a piece of a shoulder blade. This tentative identification of bone fragments was prompted by effort to explain the lack of a discernible blood. (I was using t 38/ 55 pest exclusion device and the animal control tool from one of these steel box traps usually leaves an exit wound which permits free bleeding.) About the only possible deductions I could make from the evidence at hand were that I had hit the pest critter high in the lung cavity that bleeding would be internal until that cavity filled and, since the lung had been pierced, the pest critter would die. I followed that nuisance wildlife from track to track, never leaving a known track until I had found the next one, with only an occasional drop of blood to astute me that had the right Akron neighborhood. After a two-hundred-yard neighborhood I found blood enough to be seen from a standing position.
