Our first job of the morning was a squirrels removal. This past winter caused some ice damage and squirrels being ever opportunistic, took full advantage.

We were happy to arrive onsite to see mom and all the kids out enjoying the sunshine. No attic crawl required here! The babies are squirrels teenagers ready to get their own lives started.

We repaired the soffit and installed a one-way door to ensure any squirrels that could be inside can get out, but not back in. We be back out in a few days for our final follow up and entry point closing.

What a spring this has been so far! It's late May and the raccoon babies just keep coming. 🦝

We are seeing them at every stage. From newborns just arriving, tiny and helpless, barely recognizable as raccoons. To big burly babies, that are happy to bite you, just starting out on their first trips outside to learn raccoon stuff with mom. Dad is a deadbeat so it's all on mom.

What does this mean for us? Well, we can anticipate our days of crawling around sweltering attics searching for babies aren't ending anytime soon.

Wildlife removal work can be very difficult. It requires a good deal of knowledge about the animal you are dealing with and experience to safely and humanely solve wildlife problems.

It is a commitment of time to learn the trade which takes years and a significant investment in the tools to do the job right. It is a niche branch of the pest control industry where few operators have the genuine skills, knowledge, equipment, or experience to do the job right.

At Urban Wildlife Control Inc, we specialize in humane wildlife removal. It's all we do. Our focus is and always has been providing safe, humane, and very professional wildlife removal services. We believe our approach offers the best of both worlds. Animal families stay together and our clients get wildlife free homes.

Every now and then we run into a raccoon mom who isn't nice to work with! 🦝 Well who can blame them. They assume we are there to do bad things. This one had me watching my back while I worked.

This Saturday gave me another opportunity to take my son out on the road for another raccoon removal. This job took us to Sauble Beach where a raccoon set up her den in a little cottage. He gave grabbing the babies a try but mom wasn't having it.

This raccoon was a little snarly but we were able to safely remove the babies. Mom left for the outside on her own. The roof vent entry point is repaired and secure. The babies are waiting in the reunion box right next to the original entry point.

Mom will return this afternoon or this evening to retrieve and move her babies to an alternate den site.

This raccoon mom and I are getting pretty well acquainted. This was baby box check #3.

The box is warm, dry, and secure and for now, we suspect this raccoon doesn't have a better option for shelter right now. That's fine.

We are not in a rush for her to move on and now that she's comfortable in there with her babies we don't need to check on them everyday.

We love our daily interactions with wildlife. I'm sure they don't generally care for the encounter on their side.

After 27 years of crawling around attics, carefully removing baby animals, I've learned a few things. Acting calmly with intent, and keeping aggressive tone out of the process helps immensely. It reduces the stress level for nursing wildlife that are already under enormous strain raising large litters of rapidly growing babies.

Reducing stress on the animal is key to good outcomes. Stressed animals make poor decisions. Calm animals do the right things that ultimately help us to solve problems much more easily.

First stop of the morning is one of our daily baby box checks. Mom and babies have decided our warm and dry box is pretty sweet so they are staying put for now.

No problem! They can leave when they are ready. Until then, we will stop by every couple days to check and give mom a little nudge. Eventually she'll get tired of us poking around and will move the whole family.

We love our FLIRs. It is a great tool that saves us a considerable amount of time and eliminates a lot of guess work!

The infrared cameras can often tell us exactly were an animal and it's babies are before we even enter the attic. When it works it works, but it still not a substitute for thourough attic inspections.

We had our first set of skunk babies of the 2026 season this morning. This job is a perfect example of why it is so important to check jobs daily this time of year.

We started this removal yesterday with the installation of a one-way door and full animal-proofing of the shed perimeter. We then scheduled our 1st door check for this morning.

The mother skunk exited our one-way door last night and then proceeded to try to dig back in along the entire perimeter of the shed. This was a sure sign of babies so we immediately set to locating them.

After some work scanning with the FLIR infrared camera, we located the nest. A small hole was cut in the shed floor to access the babies. They have been removed and are waiting in our reunion box for mom. Skunks are amazing mothers so in all likelihood she will be back to retrieve and relocate her babies at some point today.

Skunks typically have their babies much later than raccoons and squirrels. This is because they rely primarily on insects as the largest part of their diet so nature knows to delay birth until there is food in abundance. Skunks are amazingly beneficial animals as their diet consists almost entirely of insects and rodents that are generally considered pests.
