Brampton, ON Raccoon, Skunk and Squirrel Removal Services

Of course squirrels aren’t the only nuisance animals you might encounter in your home or business.

Raccoon Removal Brampton, ON

The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) has a serious wildlife problem, and Brampton is no exception. The Brampton Guardian reports that problems with grey squirrels and red squirrels are very common, especially during the winter mating seasons. Raccoons and skunks are also a very common sight in Brampton. They are all too happy to burrow under your deck, or to find their way into your shed.
And, as our experience in that attic demonstrates, these pests are opportunists. They won’t confine themselves to decks and sheds if they can find their way into your nice, warm house!
Wildlife like this isn’t just a nuisance. The Brampton Guardian also reports that these pests can get animal feces just about anywhere. They can carry roundworm and rabies. And, of course, the last thing anyone needs on any day is to get a face full of spray from an angry skunk on their way to work. Pets can wind up in confrontations with these animals as well, and the wild animal is usually the victor in these little contests. Bites and scratches can become seriously infected and pose a major health risk to your pet.

More about Brampton, ON

Brampton is one of the three cities that make up the Peel Region of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). The Peel Region has posted extensive warnings about rabies in the Arctic Fox, bat, and raccoon populations. Sometimes people find their way to us because they are looking for animal control services in Brampton. There is actually a big difference between animal control and wildlife control.
Animal control is concerned primarily with domestic animals like dogs or cats. You’d call animal control if you suspect someone of animal cruelty, if you find a stray animal, or if you’ve got unwanted domestic animals running around in your back yard. Learn more about Brampton Animal Control Services here.
Our wildlife control services are meant to help you remove certain wild pest animals that could be a danger to you, your family, or your pets. We deal specifically with squirrels, skunks, birds, bats, and groundhogs.
Animal control won’t have anything to do with wildlife control and won’t help you if a raccoon has moved into your attic or shed. However, the Brampton animal control office does occasionally offer some very useful wildlife control PSAs, such as this one about how squirrel nesting causes a carbon monoxide hazard.
Call us if you have a wildlife problem in Brampton. Attempting to remove wildlife on your own is very dangerous, and could expose you to the very diseases that you’re trying to avoid by removing these creatures.
