Where We Work
Serving Central & Southern Ontario with Expert Wildlife Solutions
At Mitchell’s Nuisance Wildlife Solutions, we’re proud to serve a wide range of communities across central and southern Ontario. Every region we cover presents its own unique wildlife challenges — whether it’s raccoons in attic spaces, squirrels in rooflines, or bats roosting in seasonal cottages. Our experience allows us to tailor humane, effective solutions to each environment we service.
🦝 York Region
York Region offers a blend of mature suburbs and rural properties, making it a hotspot for raccoons, squirrels, and skunks. Animals often gain access through aging roofs, loose soffits, or under sheds. We frequently handle attic infestations, contaminated insulation, and structural damage from gnawing and nesting. Rodents are also a year-round concern, especially in garages and basements of older homes. Our services in this region often focus on full exclusion and sealing to prevent repeated access.
🦇 Durham Region
With its mix of open farmland, hamlets, and expanding suburbs, Durham Region faces diverse wildlife issues. In rural areas, barns and outbuildings often harbor bat colonies, while groundhogs and skunks burrow around foundations. In residential areas, raccoons and squirrels target attics and roof vents. Wildlife pressures here spike during the spring birthing season and again in the fall as animals seek warm shelter. We offer full inspections, animal removal, and exclusion repairs tailored to both modern homes and older farm structures.
🐿️ Simcoe County
Simcoe County spans lakefront properties, farmland, and expanding residential areas — all prime environments for wildlife intrusions. Around Lake Simcoe, raccoons and birds commonly enter attic spaces and chimneys, while squirrels chew through fascia and rooflines. Further inland, barns and rural homes see increased mouse and rat activity during colder months. Many seasonal cottages face long-term infestations due to animals nesting in unused buildings. We provide seasonal inspections, preventative sealing, and full remediation for damaged areas.
🦫 Kawartha Lakes
The Kawartha Lakes region is heavily wooded and filled with seasonal homes, creating ideal conditions for squirrels, bats, raccoons, and semi-aquatic wildlife. Attic invasions often go undetected for long periods in unused cottages, leading to widespread contamination. Beavers and muskrats frequently damage docks and shoreline structures, while skunks and groundhogs are common under sheds and porches. Our team is experienced in remote access jobs and multi-animal infestations that require careful exclusion and clean-up strategies.
🦔 Haliburton County
Haliburton is dominated by forested terrain and remote, seasonal cabins — making it particularly vulnerable to wildlife intrusions. Red squirrels and raccoons commonly enter attics, wall cavities, and crawlspaces in search of nesting sites. Bats are often found roosting in rafters of older structures. In shoreline areas, beavers and muskrats may damage boathouses or flood property perimeters. Since many properties are only occupied part-time, wildlife can cause extensive hidden damage. We specialize in inspecting, securing, and restoring these vulnerable buildings.
🦝 Southern Muskoka (Gravenhurst & Bracebridge)
In the southern Muskoka Lakes area, wildlife intrusions are frequent in seasonal and waterfront properties. Red squirrels, flying squirrels, and raccoons gain entry through gaps in rooflines and under eaves, often going unnoticed until significant messes are discovered. Bats are another common issue, especially in cottages with exposed rafters or older venting systems. We often respond to issues related to contaminated insulation, persistent re-entry attempts, and dock-side access by muskrats or mink. Our services include full attic remediation and wildlife-proofing tailored to cottage construction.
🐾 Northern GTA & Surrounding Communities
The northern edge of the GTA is a zone of rapid development, bordered by farmland and mature treed neighborhoods. This makes it a prime area for wildlife seeking new shelter as natural habitats disappear. Raccoons, squirrels, and skunks are highly active here, often entering homes through soffits, roof returns, and foundation gaps. Birds frequently nest inside bathroom and kitchen exhaust vents. As human and wildlife boundaries blur, ongoing prevention and professional exclusion are essential to long-term protection.
