About Kent County, Delaware
Positioned in central Delaware between the Chesapeake and Delaware Bays, Kent County occupies the middle of the Delmarva Peninsula between two major estuaries. Its county seat, Dover, is Delaware's state capital. With a population of 181,851 across a largely rural and agricultural landscape, it draws wildlife pressure from its farm fields, tidal marshes, and scattered woodlots.
Wildlife Common to Kent County
Kent County's agricultural lowlands, coastal marsh, and small woodlots shape its wildlife profile in ways that differ from both the northern and southern parts of the state. Raccoons and opossums are the most common home-intruding species, with skunks a frequent problem under sheds and porches in Dover and Smyrna. Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge and the Little Creek Wildlife Area draw large concentrations of waterfowl and wetland species that sometimes push into adjacent properties. Snapping turtles and water snakes around the many farm ponds and tidal waterways. Tree squirrels are less concentrated here than in the wooded northern county.
Service Coverage in Kent County
Service covers all of Kent County, from Dover, Smyrna, Milford down through Camden and Harrington and out into the rural townships. Wilmington is the nearest major city to the north, but calls here are handled locally — not dispatched from out of county.
Seasonal Activity Patterns
Wildlife intrusion in Kent County follows Delaware's two main pressure windows: March through May for denning, and again September through November as animals seek winter shelter. Delaware's mild but humid climate keeps wildlife active year-round, with shorter dormancy periods than in northern states, meaning problems that might subside in colder northern states often continue through winter here.
Delaware Wildlife Regulations
All wildlife removal in Delaware is overseen by the Delaware Division of Fish and Wildlife. Most nuisance wildlife in Delaware can be trapped by licensed contractors year-round, but relocation of certain species requires state authorization. Every contractor in our network holds the applicable state permits and adheres to Delaware Fish and Wildlife guidelines on species handling and relocation.
What to Do Before the Contractor Arrives
- Note where you've seen or heard the animal — attic, crawlspace, chimney, or yard
- Don't attempt to handle or block animals yourself — this can be dangerous
- Keep pets and children away from the affected area
- Take photos of any damage or entry points you've spotted
