Raccoon in the Office

Across the world people are being asked to work from their homes. It really is an unprecedented time when looking at how America is doing their jobs. For us, animals don’t seem to concerned about COVID-19 so we are still making sure we are at your service.

This raccoon however, did not get the “work from home” memo that was sent out. And unfortunately for this commercial business, this raccoon was one busy worker. This raccoon caused damage to just about every part of the office.

This is why prevention is important. Being reactive when it comes to animal control/prevention can cause far more issues that it should. We’re here to help!

If you own a commercial business in Connecticut and are experiencing some animal conflict or want to make sure you’re taking the right measures to prevent this from happening, give us a call today!
