At Wildlife Control Services LLC, we encounter a wide range of wildlife removal challenges in Connecticut. Recently, we faced an interesting situation involving the capture and removal of a Red-Headed Flicker from a chimney. We will guide you through the process of safely capturing and relocating this beautiful bird, underscoring our dedication to humane wildlife management.

Understanding the Red-Headed Flicker:
The Northern Flicker, commonly known as the Red-Headed Flicker due to its distinctive red markings, is a medium-sized woodpecker found in various regions of North America, including Connecticut. While these birds are typically found in forests and open woodlands, they sometimes seek shelter in unexpected places, such as chimneys.

Our client contacted us with a unique challenge. They had discovered a Red-Headed Flicker stuck in their chimney. The bird had likely entered the chimney in search of shelter but found itself trapped, unable to escape on its own.
