Mount Pleasant has been one of the fastest-growing communities in South Carolina for over a decade, and rapid development means wildlife is constantly being displaced from forested lots into adjacent neighborhoods. Monster Wildlife knows the wildlife patterns in your area, whether you're in an established neighborhood like Old Village or a newer subdivision off Highway 17.
Mount Pleasant is South Carolina's fourth-largest city, located across the Cooper River from Charleston. Its rapid expansion, from Shem Creek and Old Village to massive new developments at the I-526 extension, has made wildlife displacement an ongoing issue.
Many forested lots that bordered residential neighborhoods a decade ago have been cleared for development, concentrating wildlife populations into smaller areas and pushing them into established homes.
The large live oak canopy throughout Mount Pleasant's established neighborhoods provides direct roof access for squirrels. Overhanging branches within six feet of the roofline are the primary vector for squirrel entry in Snee Farm, Brickyard Plantation, and the Old Village. Gray squirrels breed twice a year and population pressure stays high.
Wetland areas along Shem Creek, in I'On, and near the Wando River watershed see elevated snake and opossum activity. Cottonmouth water moccasins are regularly found in drainage areas and near retention ponds in newer subdivisions. Don't assume a suburban neighborhood means no venomous snake risk.

From the first time calling to now, Graham has been extremely AMAZING!!! I wouldn't trust anyone else but Monster Wildlife. You can tell he absolutely cares about what he does and us as customers. Whenever my wife has a concern I call text/call Graham and he stays on top of it!!! 100 ⭐️
This is an amazing company! They came out super quickly and repaired some spots where rats were getting in to my building. All for a very fair price! Only company I use and I recommend them to everyone!
Super grateful for Graham taking care of our bat issue! He was professional and reasonable with his pricing. Would not hesitate to recommend him.
