California is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Los Altos wildlife control services if you want to solve a critter problem legally and correctly. For example, we specialize in animals in the attic, which have broken into the house and almost always have a nest of baby animals. It is necessary to perform correct preventative repairs to keep pest animals a out of your house for good. We perform full building inspection, do the the repairs and we also offer attic decontamination if necessary. Rats and mice love to live in attics, and can chew wires or leave droppings. Some Los Altos animals frequently enter homes, and correct removal is not a simple task.
DOG or CAT: If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local
Santa Clara County Animal Control
for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, vaccinations, licenses,
pet adoption, lost pets, and more. If you have a wildlife problem, you can try calling the Santa Clara County animal control, and see what they have to
say, but they will certainly not help you with a complex wildlife problem such as critters in your attic. They are a free government agency that
helps with dog and cat issues only.

Los Altos Wildlife Tip:
Do Raccoons Come Out In The Rain?
Just like many other animals, raccoons will rather hide out in cosy shelters than operate and the rain. Although it is harder to find them moving around when it is raining, it is not entirely impossible. If the situation calls for it, raccoons can beat the weather and go out in the rain.
What Kind Of Rain Can They Handle?
There are lighter rains and heavier rains.
- The heavier rains are harsher and usually mean a drop in temperature. It is rare to find raccoons moving around when this kind of rain is falling.
- Lighter rains are another ballgame. Raccoons can easily operate when they fall. Their preferred stance is to keep out of rain entirely, but it's easier to hunt for food in these lighter rains, especially because the temperature might still be war in such weather.
Rains are a discouragement and should reduce the amount of raccoon activity, but when necessity calls, raccoons will beat the rain and go out.
What Does It Mean?
If you see raccoons moving around in the rain it usually spells some kind of trouble or sheer desperation for food. Raccoons usually feed enough during the summer, so they can rest in winter and stay warm. It is very unlikely that hunger drives them out for food in the cold. If there's a raccoon running around in the rain, especially heavy rain, it is best to avoid it as it may be rabid.
Where Do They Hide When It Rains?
Raccoons will usually choose the cosiest spot in your house and hide during rainy months. They will choose comfortable hideouts and dens to wait it out and in that time, they will only move under the shed.
Less Trouble During Rains
A rainy season can be good news for you as a house owner, especially if your property is under attack from raccoons. The change in weather and temperature makes it harder for them to move and so they don't damage more of your stuff.
Raccoons will rather not move around in the rain but necessity might push them to do so. Hunger, attack or sickness are some of the chief reasons you will ever see a raccoon out in the rain.
