HUMANE WILDLIFE CONTROL

Wildlife Prepare for Colder Nights!

After a very long year, winter is back!

In Canada, we experience a more drastic weather change than some of our other North American neighbours. While Canadians will normally embrace the snow by skiing, skating, and shovelling our days away, this year we may be finding ourselves spending more time at home than ever. While you stay cozy and warm inside, you may be wondering “what are our wildlife friends up to?”.

Wild animals experience the seasons the same way humans do – the summers are hot, and the winters are cold. Throughout late spring, summer, and early fall resources are plentiful, and wild animals spend most of their time outdoors scavenging for nesting materials and food. As the snow begins to fall, raccoons, skunks, squirrels and mice look for a cozy place to hunker down. Given the choice between a tree hollow and a warm, safe attic, the choice for most critters is clear.

While they may go through periods of low activity, none of the above listed animals go into hibernation for the colder months. In fact, skunks and raccoons will begin their mating season as early as January, birthing their first litters before winter officially melts into spring. The most common time of the year for wildlife break-ins is birthing season, which can unfortunately cause thousands of dollars in damage for homeowners.
