Connecticut's distinct seasons impact wildlife behavior. Cold winters often drive animals like squirrels and raccoons to seek warmth inside homes and attics. Spring is a busy time for nesting and young animals becoming active. Summer can see increased foraging activity. The housing stock in Connecticut, from older colonial homes to modern residences, offers numerous entry points for wildlife. We focus on humane removal and preventing future intrusions.
