Connecticut's climate supports a variety of wildlife year-round. Spring and summer see increased activity from animals like squirrels, raccoons, and bats seeking nesting sites in attics and wall voids of older homes. As the weather cools, rodents and other small mammals often seek shelter indoors. Connecticut has specific regulations concerning the trapping and removal of certain wildlife species, especially those that are protected or pose public health risks. We are knowledgeable about these requirements and ensure all removal and exclusion efforts comply with state and local laws. Our service begins with a detailed phone consultation to understand your specific animal problem. We then schedule an on-site inspection to identify the animal, locate entry points, and assess the extent of any damage. Humane removal is followed by exclusion work to seal entry points and sanitation to restore a healthy environment.
