WILDLIFE WE REMOVE

The wild animals we remove most across Winnipeg & Manitoba

Nuisance wildlife move into attics, chimneys, decks, and yards looking for shelter and food. Accurate identification drives the right approach: humane trapping for raccoons, deodorizing and removal for skunks, and one-way exclusion doors for squirrels.

Raccoon
MOST DESTRUCTIVE

Raccoon

Procyon lotor
SIZE
40–70 cm
WHERE
Attics · chimneys · decks · sheds

Highly intelligent and dexterous. Raccoons tear into attics, chimneys, and soffits to den and raise young in spring. They can rip shingles and vents apart and leave hazardous droppings behind.

Skunk
STRONG ODOUR

Skunk

Mephitis mephitis
SIZE
45–80 cm
WHERE
Under decks · sheds · porches

Skunks den under decks, sheds, and porches and dig shallow holes in lawns hunting grubs. They spray a powerful lingering odour when threatened, so removal is safest before spring litters arrive.

Squirrel
CHEW DAMAGE

Squirrel

Sciurus carolinensis
SIZE
23–30 cm
WHERE
Attics · soffits · wall voids · vents

Agile climbers squeeze through soffit and roof gaps to nest in attics and wall voids. Constant gnawing on wood, wiring, and insulation creates fire and structural risk.

WHAT TO WATCH FOR

Signs you need professional wildlife removal in Winnipeg

If you're seeing any of these warning signs, an animal is likely denning on or under your property. DIY trapping is often illegal or inhumane in Manitoba and can leave young behind inside walls. Call a licensed Winnipeg wildlife technician before damage spreads.

Scratching, thumping, or scurrying in the attic, walls, or ceiling
Torn soffits, lifted shingles, or a hole chewed into a vent or eave
A fresh burrow or large hole dug under a deck, shed, or foundation
A strong skunk odour around the deck, porch, or crawlspace
Droppings, nesting debris, or chewed wiring found in the attic
Animals seen entering or leaving the same spot at dawn or dusk
OUR PROCESS

Our 4-step wildlife removal process in Winnipeg

Every Terra13 wildlife removal follows the same predictable sequence: free inspection first, affordable inspection-based quote, no surprises and no upsells.

01

Identify

Identify the species, locate the den or entry point, and check for dependent young. Attic intrusions, deck dens, and roofline gaps each need a different removal method.

02

Remove

Remove the animal humanely with live trapping, hands-on removal, or a one-way exclusion door. Dependent young are removed and reunited so nothing is sealed inside.

03

Protect

All work follows Manitoba wildlife regulations and humane handling standards. We clean and deodorize soiled areas and safely remove droppings or contaminated material.

04

Prevent

Seal and reinforce entry points with heavy-gauge mesh and exclusion materials, then advise on roofline and yard fixes that discourage return.

LOCAL CONDITIONS

Why wildlife keeps moving into Winnipeg homes and yards

Winnipeg's hard winters push raccoons, skunks, and squirrels to seek warm shelter in attics, chimneys, and under decks from fall through spring. Females look for a safe, quiet place to raise young, and a warm attic or open soffit is ideal.

Raccoons and squirrels exploit aging soffits, roof vents, and chimneys across older Winnipeg neighbourhoods like River Heights, St. Vital, and Charleswood. Skunks den under decks and porches and dig lawns hunting grubs, so early exclusion prevents costly structural damage and repeat intrusions.

FAQ

Wildlife removal Winnipeg — frequently asked questions.

Can't find your answer? Call us any time — we'll pick up.

Pricing is affordable and based on inspection findings, pest activity, access, and treatment scope. We confirm the recommendation before work begins.

Yes. Terra13 runs a 24/7 emergency line for active wildlife problems: a raccoon loose inside the house, a skunk trapped in a window well, or an injured animal on your property. Same-day response for most Winnipeg addresses inside the perimeter. Call +1 204-881-5849.

An initial removal or exclusion-door setup takes 30–60 minutes on-site. Live-trapping a raccoon usually needs 2–5 days of monitored trap checks. Full entry-point sealing is scheduled once we confirm the animal and any young are out.

Yes. We use live trapping, hands-on removal, and one-way exclusion doors, never poisons, which can leave an animal to die inside a wall. All work follows Manitoba wildlife regulations, and dependent young are removed with the mother wherever possible.

No. Wildlife removal doesn't require evacuation. Most work happens in the attic, on the roofline, or in the yard. We'll let you know if a messy step, like cleanup of contaminated insulation, means staying out of one room for a short while.

Free re-service within the warranty period, typically 60 days on every sealed entry point. Because we seal entry points with heavy-gauge mesh rather than just removing the animal, re-entry is rare. If wildlife gets back in through a spot we sealed, we return at no cost.

DIY trapping and relocation is often illegal or restricted in Manitoba, and moving an animal far from its territory usually means it dies or simply returns. Sealing a hole without checking for young can trap babies inside your walls. A licensed technician handles it humanely, legally, and seals the entry point properly.
