The Wildlife Whisperer

We found a part of our soffit deformed and open to the environment. This made us apprehensive about a creature establishing residence in our ceiling. We had Ned Bruha come check out things. He felt the damage was environmental not due to animals. He checked things out and, after being sure there were no beasties in the ceiling, he repaired the soffit. I can’t recommend Ned more highly!! If you have pests or if you THINK you do, call Ned Bruha, The Wildlife Whisperer! He’ll fix you up!!

Ned is amazing. He came out to my house on a Saturday evening (after moving his residence the day and night before) to investigate an owl that had gotten into the house that’s under renovation. He is such a fun guy to talk to and really knows his stuff. Owl was rescued and Ned did a full inspection to figure out how the owl could have gotten in, and made several recommendations to avoid more issues in the future. I cannot recommend him highly enough!!

Ned’s service is top-notch! His expertise and experience really show, and he has a unique, respectful approach when working with raccoons (our issue). He’s professional, transparent, fair, and incredibly detail-oriented. Truly stands out—highly recommend!

I had a big Issue with Raccoons getting into my house. I called Ned and he responded and came out that same day. He expressed a different approach as I had this happen before and other companies I hired just trapped and moved them and hopefully never to return.Well that lasted awhile but they or other raccoons will show up. Ned's way of getting them out but not necessarily relocate but to educate the animals not move in but move on to a different environment that they could live in. Then securing/ re-enforcing the building at strategic locations from never happening again. Ned was very response thru the whole process with updates and pictures along the way. He was very professional , clean and courteous . He handled the whole extraction from beginning to end . I would highly recommend Ned & his approach to animal removals. Ken

Meeting Ned was a different experience....in a positive way! In SWFL when you call for rodent/wildlife service or most other services in the area, you get a friendly person who warms you up and then scares you into contracts or oversells their services. Ned listened to me first about our rodent/wildlife issue and then educated me on what the real problem was....our house and the way some builders in our area cut corners which led to my non-paying tenants. Without any cost he provided me with his solution options to those problems while evicting my non-paying renters in a humane way. Initially I was skeptical but as he started his work, I quickly became more confident is his work. This was because his communication was timely and detailed. The process took a little longer than I was initially expecting but his work in sealing up the house, evicting the critters and keeping me posted on all details made it all worth it. I would highly suggest calling Ned for your wildlife removal needs, especially if you want it done right and humanely!

Ned was great to work with. Completed the repairs in a timely manner. He broke items into categories so you could pick and choose what you wanted to have done. We chose to have everything done as I don't want rodents in my house. His fee was very reasonable. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

What a great company and service, can’t say enough kind words about this business! Highly recommend 😊

I called this facility for assistance with a baby rabbit that needs help, unfortunately this is the only survivor of three from my fenced in backyard when I let my dog out in the back, she must’ve found the nest and proceeded to attack them. I was able to save the one so I figured what was best for the rabbit instead of putting it back in my yard where the dog could potentially get back in the nest I would call and give the rabbit it’s best shot at life rather than a tore up nest. Well, when I proceeded to call Ned, the owner of this facility whom thought that it was in his best interest to proceed to shame me and pity party me into making a donation to a facility because I failed to walk my dog on a leash within my fenced backyard and state because of my negligence within my own property. He didn’t wanna take the rabbit in and suggested that I just bring it to Blue Pearl and make a donation and that I should also go to these facilities and see how many baby rabbits die each day due to people like me not walking there dogs on a leash; stating that it would make me cry (unprofessional may I add). I would be 100% supporting of these statements if it wasn’t my own fenced in backyard where it is 100% legal to have my dog off leash. If was walking down the sidewalk and this happened that would be a different story unfortunately this wasn’t the case. It is not that I have no sympathy for the situation hence the reason why I even reached out to find a facility to take the rabbit in to give it the best chance at life but whenever I call into a facility that is supposed to help with wildlife, I shouldn’t be met with a pity party and shame to be thrown at me in doing so. Very disappointed by his behavior in how he handles situations. I really hope in the future he knows how to handle situations better rather than shaming individuals who’s only goal when calling in is to seek help regardless of the situation.

Ned was incredibly professional and knew exactly how to solve our pest problem. He showed up on time and the entire process was seamless from beginning to end and was very generous with his time. Anyone looking for trapping or pest services (ours was iguanas) don’t hesitate to give him a call, I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Gave me great advice over the phone without charging me a dime. Would highly recommend

Ned is very patient kind, an extremely knowledgeable. He answered all my questions was very helpful. And knew exactly what to do. One in a million!

Would highly recommend this man. He explained everything at the start, during , and after, in language you could understand. Did everything he said he would. Took care of the problem!

Ned handled our raccoon “problem” humanely. It was entertaining watching the process seeing the mama come out and call her babies out. Ned was so knowledgeable and compassionate. He cares about the wildlife and teaches you about conservation along the way.

We would highly recommend Ned for iguana issues, we had a couple living under our new tiled roof! Ned came here and said what he recommended and took care of the problem. I highly recommend “The Wild Life Whisperer”

Very professional!!!! Knows exactly what he is doing!!! Tough to get this quality of service these days.

I cant say enough good things about Ned. He helped me after the Iast hurricane. I had a rat infestation. He took care of all the places they had chewed into my cottage, roof top. while I was back home in Ohio. NOW, he took time to go to my place and make sure, they had not returned after this past hurricane. He sent me pictures, all good, inside. I do have some outside clean up to do and roof and fence damage, when I get back down there. Thank you Ned and God Bless You.

This review is long overdue. Ned helped me when a raccoon and her babies were stuck in my attic. This was over a year ago, yet I am still eternally grateful for his service. He made a stressful experience (for me) educational and guided the family to relocate. He is an amazing human. Thank you.

Ned knows what he’s doing. He came to give me an estimate and explained what he would do and what would happen. The raccoon did exactly what Ned told me she would do. The mother and babies left on their own within 3 days. I have already and will continue to recommend the Wildlife Whisperer to everyone I know.

Ned worked tirelessly to secure my home from any intruders into the attic. There were a number of stray cats in the neighborhood and when there was scratching and noise coming from ceiling I called the Wildlife Whisperer thinking there might be a rat inside. It was a mother cat and she had kittens! She was unwilling to leave but finally a loud recording of fighting cats and barking dogs did the trick. Ned has the protection of the environment and all animal life as his guiding belief. Highly recommend him.

Ned is amazing, he is someone who genuinely wants to help you and also wildlife. I had a duck issue where some baby ducks hatched in my soffit that unfortunately did not make it and Ned came out and removed them and made sure none were left. He even went around my entire house to make sure it was wildlife proof, replacing and sealing various parts. He kept me updated every step of the way and offered the most practical solutions and advice. One of the most trustworthy people I have found in SWFL who guarantees his work. I hope to never need this type of service again but if I did he would be the first person I would consult.

Ned organized and oversaw construction of am osprey platform for me which has been a great success and also installed a deterrent system on my roof. Ned did excellent and timely work. I recommend him

No hate,just no help.had big snake in yard looked like a python
