If you have an animal problem and need assistance, there are several free animal control resources in Waterbury, Connecticut. The first thing you can try is your local New Haven County animal services, or the free Waterbury animal control services by calling 203-397-8413. They may be able to help you with your critter problem, and possibly offer free raccoon removal or free snake removal. But they primarily deal with dogs and cats, and might not help with wildlife. For wildlife-specifice issues, try the Connecticut Wildlife Commission at 860-424-3011. They do free wildlife control in Waterbury and all of Connecticut. But they often deal with special cases like bears, or illegal hunting. They might not help you with specific cases in your house, like free rodent control or free squirrel removal. At a more local level, you can call Waterbury Wildlife Rehabilitation at 203-263-4006 for local free animal removal and trapping, and they may help with providing free critter removal in Waterbury. But this organization, like all wildlife rehab, mostly focuses on healing and caring for sick or injured wildlife. There's no business that provides free pest control in Waterbury that will remove wild animals that I know of, like free bat control or free rat removal. Sometimes, for a case of animals in an attic, or wildlife problems on private property, you need to hire and pay for wildlife removal, and if so, I recommend American Bio-Tech at 860-661-4413. Some people wonder if animal control costs money, or how much does animal removal cost. For that, call 860-661-4413 and ask. Of course, you can be sure to get free pest wildlife removal if you solve the problem yourself, so read my Do-It-Yourself page for more hints. Finally, you can call the local Waterbury police department. Click here for Waterbury police department animal removal and for a short explanation.

Waterbury wildlife issues:

Malone fabric is very sturdy, provides real protection from the cold, has strength to resist tearing by briars and neighborhood, and is snow and rain repellent. Above this wear a scarlet goose-down insulated vest, with an upper front and two large pockets lined to serve as hand warmers for wintry days. When the weather turns warm the nuisance wildlife control professional can well discard his removing unwanted wildlife coat and get along nicely with the insulated jacket. In underwear, the two-piece, part-wool type is recommended for the pest critter nuisance wildlife control professional in the colder states. For the man who must be out in sometimes near-zero weather, and does his removing unwanted wildlife from a stand, the two-piece thermal underwear is a boon and a blessing. Dressed adequately, the nuisance wildlife control professional can take freezing temperatures. The same nuisance Waterbury wildlife control professional will want woolen socks, one pair of nylon next the skin and one or two pair over that of wool, worn in rubber boots.

Wool not only keeps the feet warm but cushions them. Used with an inner-liner, woolen socks worn in adequate footgear will go far toward making the trap a success. The boots must be large enough to accommodate two pairs of woolen socks. They must be comfortable, warm, and waterproof. Don't settle for leather footgear in the snow country. Insulated rubber boots are top notch; for all-around comfort, however, I go for the Maine-type boot, with rubber bottoms and leather tops, which are no more than 8 or 10 inches in height. Get the best in footgear. You're on your feet much of the time, and your feet must feel warm and well cushioned or you're in trouble. A cap with earflaps in a bright orange is a must. You have a choice of leather, fur, or wool, or a combination. Try on a couple for size and feel. But stress the safety angle. A bright red or orange cap, with accent on the orange, stands out sharply in the pest critter suburban neighborhood and marks you as a human, not a conflict animal. If you wear a brilliant red or orange jacket your presence in the pest critter suburban Waterbury neighborhood is readily apparent to any nuisance wildlife nuisance wildlife control professional, except the most color-blind, and let's hope this nuisance wildlife control professional is the rare exception! I wear woolen gloves, red in color, for the colder days. Essential Equipment - At one time I wore woolen mitts, but they are a hindrance. You can purchase regular captureing mitts with a trigger finger for either right or left hand.

Another good idea for a hand covering is a glove with a woolen back and a leather pant. Many nuisance wildlife pest control operators get along very well without gloves, warming their hands when necessary by placing them in their pockets. A sharp removing unwanted Waterbury wildlife knife carried in a sheath is needed to dress the humanely trap and relocate. If you don't like the idea of the longer knife there is no reason that the pocket knife with a four-inch blade, if nicely sharpened, will not suffice. When cleaning a conflict animal, you will get your hands bloody no matter how long the blade.
