These are boxelder bugs, and they’re starting to show up around homes in Cranbrook right now.

Even with the snow → sun → snow weather we’ve been having, these insects become active as soon as temperatures rise, even for short periods. They come out of overwintering and gather on warm, sunny surfaces like siding and foundations.

That’s why you’ll often see them clustered like this on one side of the house. They’re drawn to heat and will stay in those areas throughout the day.

Boxelder bugs are not harmful, but they can show up in large numbers. As activity increases outside, some may eventually make their way indoors through small gaps around the home.

This is a normal part of early spring in the Cranbrook area, even if winter doesn’t feel fully over yet.

What’s hiding in your attic?
We opened up this attic and found clear signs of animal activity, a quiet, sheltered space that’s perfect for mice, squirrels, or even raccoons to move in unnoticed.

Whether it’s an attic, garage, or outbuilding, wildlife and rodents know how to find a way in, especially in Cranbrook and the surrounding areas.

At Critters B Gone, we use humane live traps and safe exclusion methods to get the problem under control quickly.

🌲🦨 Look who we stumbled across in the forest a few days ago! 🦨🌲
This little skunk was just doing its thing, exploring the woods and minding its own business.
It’s always a good reminder that we share these beautiful spaces with all kinds of wild neighbours — big, small, and yes, sometimes smelly!

No sprays were triggered, no animals (or humans!) were harmed, and no wildlife was harassed — just a peaceful passing by captured in nature. 🖤

What’s Exclusion? And Why It Matters!

At Critters B Gone, we don’t just remove wildlife and pests — we help you keep them out for good. That’s where exclusion comes in.

✅ What is it?
Exclusion means finding how critters get in — like gaps under decks, cracks in foundations, or holes under sidewalks — and sealing them up properly.

✅ Why does it work?
If you don’t block those entry points, you’ll end up with repeat visitors. Good exclusion means no more surprise skunks, raccoons, or rodents moving in under your home or walkway.

✅ Why choose us?
We do it right: safe, humane removal first — then professional repairs to protect your property long-term.

📞 Questions about exclusion? Give us a call anytime — we’re local, fully licensed & insured, and always ready to help you stay critter-free!

🦨 Our Story – From Small Beginnings to Big Goals 🛠️

We’re a husband-and-wife team who started Critters B Gone with one simple goal: to build something we could be proud of — not just for ourselves, but for our family and our community.

We didn’t come from money or big investors. We came from long days, tight budgets, and a whole lot of problem-solving. This business started with a pickup truck, a few traps, and a drive to do the job right — every single time.

At first, we focused solely on wildlife removal — safely and humanely helping people deal with skunks, raccoons, foxes, and beavers. But as we built trust with our customers, one question kept coming up:

“Do you do pest control too?”

After hearing it over and over again — we decided to answer the call. Now, Critters B Gone also provides full pest control services: ant and spider sprays, mice prevention, and custom solutions — always professional, always no-pressure.

Thanks to your continued support, we’re growing faster than we ever imagined. Our next step is focused on:

Hiring and training local talent
Investing in better equipment and software
Staying small enough to care, but strong enough to handle more

And always — continuing to provide humane, no-hassle wildlife and pest control.

This is more than just a business to us — it’s a chance to build a future and protect the community we care about. Whether you’ve hired us, referred us, or just encouraged us along the way — we’re truly grateful.
