Wildlife Removal in Downtown & The Ward
Raccoon and squirrel removal for Downtown Guelph, St. Patrick's Ward and the streets along the Speed.
This is where most of the raccoon calls in the city come from, and the reason is the buildings. The Ward and the streets around downtown are largely pre-1940: brick, steep roofs, dormers, additions grafted on at odd angles, and soffit-to-fascia joints that have had eighty winters working on them. Brick chimneys are everywhere and most of them are uncapped, which makes them den sites rather than chimneys. Inside, the attics are open-joist with board sheathing and whatever insulation was available at the time, which is easy for an animal to hollow out and hard for a homeowner to inspect. Add the Speed River corridor running right through it and a canopy of mature maples touching the rooftops, and you have continuous pressure. Work here is slow and detailed: the whole roof line gets inspected and quoted, not just the hole you spotted from the driveway, because a century home usually has three or four weak points and sealing one just moves the problem along the eave.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge more to come out to my neighbourhood?
Not within Guelph. For the county — Puslinch, Aberfoyle, Morriston, Rockwood, Eden Mills, Ariss and the Guelph/Eramosa townships — travel is built into the written quote up front rather than added afterward. You see the number before anything is booked.
Can you work on a rural property, a barn or an outbuilding?
Yes, and county calls are a real part of the work. Barns, drive sheds, old bank barns and detached garages bring bats, barn swallows, raccoons in the mow and groundhogs under the foundation. The approach is the same as a house — find the ways in, get the animals out alive, close the building — but the surface area is larger, so the assessment matters more and the quote is built around what is realistic to seal.
