About The Wildlife Whisperer
The Wildlife Whisperer's methods, philosophy and mission statement were developed by founder Ned Bruha, and are the result of years of experience working directly with wildlife, and a desire to find cost-effective, long term solutions that are beneficial and kind to both clients and wildlife.
We are proud to bring our methods to residents in southwest and south Florida including Cape Coral, Pine Island, Boca Grande, Fort Myers and other areas in Southwest Florida.
The Wildlife Whisperer recently moved to Florida because of the state's unique wildlife situation. Florida is more in need of ways to co-exist utilizing cost-effective, humane wildlife control methods than perhaps any where else in the US. Many of the native species are protected, and some non-native, invasive species would be impossible to eradicate by any method.
In Florida, co-existence is not a preferred option, it is the only option.
Our Mission As A Wildlife Control Company
When it comes to choosing the right company, there is a lot to research first, but you will find our credentials and accolades are hard to beat.
Our Mission Statement
The Wildlife Whisperer intends to "raise the bar" for wildlife control methods and standards, encouraging the general public and the industry to utilize wildlife removal methods that do not hurt animals or pocketbooks as much as repeatedly trapping vs. fixing the root problem.
With the help of social media, and the news coverage and awards that The Wildlife Whisperer has received, Bruha has been able to share his story and bring his message to millions around the world.
Getting To The Root Of The Problem
The root problem is typically going to be the three big wildlife attractants: food, water and shelter. If you eliminate or alter one or more of those three things correctly, wildlife problems disappear naturally.
Do you really want to pay a wildlife control company to repeatedly trap auto-replenishing wild critters?
Those animal damage repairs may be more intensive than you realize.
You have choices - a temporary solution for that raccoon or the bats in your attic, the skunk under your deck, opossum under your shed or rats in the crawl space - or a long term solution.
Our work provides a permanent and guaranteed solution for all your wildlife problems.
Fast Response
When most individuals have wildlife problems they need help fast, our team knows this and we strive for hard to beat response times, and do our best to be there for you when emergencies occur.
Our vehicles were selected specifically for the task at hand - to deliver wildlife solutions to all areas of Southwest Florida - including hard to reach beach front, dirt road and rural locations.
How Our Philosophy Developed
Years ago, Ned Bruha started "Bruha's Nuisance Wildlife Control, Inc." before he deployed to Afghanistan. In the beginning, Bruha set live cage traps for squirrels, raccoons, opossum, skunks, rats and other animals invading sheds, decks, crawl spaces and attics. Bruha would point at the hole that the wild animal critter was using and tell the client "you need to get that fixed". Because he was so busy trapping and relocating animals, he would refer the repairs to a local handyman.

to humanely help control bats.
As time went on, Bruha realized that he continually had to go back to the same homes and businesses and trap more wildlife all the time, so he started doing repairs for his clients. One of the repairs was a type of barrier that kept animals from digging under foundations and sheds, called a "hardware cloth bury". Bruha tore his shoulder in 9 different places doing this hard work, and could no longer easily do all of the ladder lifting. At the same time, Bruha realized that trapping and relocating the wild animals and critters was not only not truly helping his clients, but it was bad for the animals due to research proving such. Bruha wanted to make a change.
Excited to promote more effective humane wildlife control methods, Bruha helped establish The Skunk Whisperer, Inc., and the company was named in his honor after the nick name given to him by his friends and clients.
Eventually Bruha moved to Florida to start his own company, The Wildlife Whisperer, Inc., aptly named since the variety of animals there are so broad. As always, Bruha stays dedicated to his clients and the humane methods he uses to help them.
