Wildlife Damage &
Other Consequences
Although it is not the animal’s intent to be destructive or harmful, it is a fact that these animals cause considerable damage that often goes undetected. This is where effective wildlife damage control becomes crucial.
For example, seeping rain and snow through the entry hole can cause mold and water damage, gnawed electrical wires can ignite fires and damaged insulation can create rising heating / cooling costs.
Living with raccoons, squirrels, skunks, etc., can also confront the occupants with anxiety, sleep deprivation, health and safety concerns, allergic reactions, and costly repairs.

During his youth, Brad Gates cultivated a love for wildlife while exploring the woods and ravines of the Scarborough Bluffs. Living with his family, their home became a haven for various urban species, including birds, rabbits, turtles, snakes, squirrels, and a raccoon named Mandy. Notably, Mandy played a pivotal role in shaping Brad’s future endeavors.
In 1984, armed with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Guelph, Brad founded AAA Gates’ Wildlife Control. Drawing on his strong foundation in wildlife biology and behavior, Brad aimed to pioneer humane methods for addressing wildlife intrusions. Guided by the personal philosophy to “work with Mother Nature, not against her,” he embarked on a journey to develop effective and compassionate solutions for coexisting with wildlife.

If you’re experiencing strange noises, visible damage, or unpleasant odors in your home, it might be time to consider humane wildlife removal services. Signs such as droppings, tracks, and the presence of wildlife in or around your property can indicate an intrusion. Additionally, damage to your garden or landscape, changes in your pet’s behavior, and structural damage like holes in the roof are all red flags.

For those who may be tempted to take on the task of removing animals and animal proofing themselves, it is important to remember that it can be a dangerous undertaking. Falling off ladders and roofs while attempting to remove animals or seal entry points can result in serious bodily harm. In some cases, even aggressive animals can pose a danger to those trying to remove them. It is best to leave these tasks to experienced professionals who have the knowledge and equipment to safely and effectively handle wildlife removal and animal proofing. Attempting to do it yourself can put you at risk of injury and potentially even more damage to your home.
To prevent the need for wildlife removal, take preventative measures such as securing entry points like gaps and openings, screening roof vents, plumbing mats, and chimneys. Regular inspections of your property, coupled with prompt repairs to damaged areas, help create a less enticing environment for wildlife. Trim vegetation away from your home, and remove potential food sources to discourage animals from making your property their habitat. Consulting with Gates Wildlife can provide tailored strategies for effective wildlife prevention on your home.
