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!

It is officially mating season for skunks in the Connecticut area.
“Okay, how does that effect me? I’m not single and I’m not a skunk?”

One of the more ‘famous’ of the wildlife animals we run into is the flying squirrels. Often times pictured in movies, shows, and books because of their miraculous leaping ability.
What is less miraculous is their ability to get into your home and create distruction. They will find ways into your walls, attics, and other barely-accessible areas.

There are a lot of obvious reasons that you don’t want animals living in your attic, basement, sheds, etc. But perhaps one of the most overlooked reasons is the disease they can cause to circulate throughout your home.

Raccoons are one of the more common animal control challenge that we solve. Often times we think of these animals rummaging through our garbage at the end of our driveways, and though it is a nuisance, they are not in our home.
However, that’s not always the case. Raccoons are regularly looking for areas to lounge and shelter and sometimes that means in your home. This is a picture of some damage we found at a residential property attic, in Somers CT. Once they enter your home they can cause all sorts of trouble.
