AAAC Wildlife Removal of Columbia, SC

Hi there! We’re Jesse and Megan Tenley, proud owners of AAAC Wildlife Removal of Columbia SC. As a local, family-run, veteran-owned, and woman-led business, we’re passionate about protecting homes and businesses in our community. We have four wonderful children and one adorable grandson who inspire us every day.

Our journey into wildlife removal was fueled by a shared dream—to build a business that not only supports our family but also creates meaningful careers for others. Jesse’s extensive wilderness experience and problem-solving skills, combined with our commitment to outstanding customer service, made this the perfect path for us.

Jesse’s career in wildlife removal began in 2011 when he started working with his brother, Vince, at AAAC Wildlife Removal of Columbia SC. Little did we know, this experience was laying the groundwork for our future. In 2014, we fulfilled our dream of business ownership by purchasing the Columbia franchise. Since then, we’ve dedicated ourselves to growing the business and strengthening our ties within the local community.

Over the past several years, we’ve built an incredible team—one that includes our entire family. Our sons, JT and Hank, love working outdoors, handling wildlife, and tackling hands-on projects. Our daughters, Dallas and Bridgett, thrive in marketing and office management alongside Megan. Bridgett’s husband, Caleb, has become one of our lead Wildlife Technicians. It’s been a blessing beyond anything we could have imagined!

As parents ourselves, we understand how crucial it is to keep your family’s home or business safe and secure. That’s why we’re passionate about delivering more than just wildlife removal—we’re here to provide peace of mind. We go above and beyond for our clients, backed by continuous employee training that exceeds industry standards.

We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured to handle wildlife challenges and perform damage repairs for both residential and commercial properties. With AAAC Wildlife Removal of Columbia SC, you can trust that your property is in expert hands.

We proudly serve Columbia, SC
