As winter settles in, urban wildlife are preparing for the cold months ahead. Unfortunately, in their search for warmth and shelter, many of these animals find their way into attics, walls, and crawl spaces—places we consider safe and cozy.
Throughout the warmer months, wildlife like raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and mice spend their time gathering food and building up fat stores. But when snow begins to fall, their focus shifts to finding a secure, warm spot to call home for the season. Given the choice between a tree hollow and a cozy attic, the attic is often the winner.
Urban wildlife have become expert at adapting to city living, often nesting inside our homes during the winter. Though they may enter a state of hibernation or “torpor,” their presence can still lead to significant damage. While nesting in your home, they can damage insulation, create sanitation problems, and even chew on electrical wiring, creating a serious fire hazard.
As winter ends, many wildlife species, like raccoons, begin their mating season as early as January, leading to the birth of their young in the spring. This season is when most wildlife break-ins occur, as mothers search for a safe, warm place to give birth and raise their young—often resulting in costly damage to your home.
