Nuisance Wildlife Season in California

The seasons affect wildlife activity. Different species are more likely to take up residence on your property at different times of year.

Animals have the same basic needs as people — food, shelter, and water. An animal will enter your home or your property because there are resources to satisfy one or all those needs.
