Pest Control and Wildlife
The Northumberland Humane Society does not handle urban wildlife calls such as skunks, raccoons, and bats. Residents are urged to contact a local pest control company who may or may not operate on a fee for service basis. Coyotes have been sighted in the urban area of the Municipality of Port Hope, for more information, visit Ministry of Natural Resources.
