Wildlife Exclusion

Wildlife on your property can be a considerable concern. Their presence often leads to property damage, health risks, and general unease. Luckily, we're here to provide you with top-notch wildlife exclusion services. 

You might wonder, what does "wildlife exclusion" mean? It is the process of making adjustments to your home or property to prevent wildlife from getting in. Many intrusions could be prevented with proper exclusion techniques, presenting a compelling case for the implementation of these measures.

Exclusion works by understanding the common entry points for different animals. These points could be your attic, crawlspace, under the deck, or other structures where wildlife could potentially take shelter. Our team of professionals is well-versed in identifying these problem areas, ensuring that the methods are tailored to your property.

There's a multitude of methods, depending on the type of intruder and the area of your property. For instance, chimney caps can be installed to keep raccoons, squirrels, and birds from getting inside your chimney. Foundation vent screens keep skunks, opossums, and rats from crawling into your home's foundation.

Another prevalent method is sealing entry points. This could mean patching up holes in the exterior walls, sealing gaps in the roofline, or adding screens to vents. Each of these tactics creates a physical barrier that wildlife can't penetrate, effectively keeping them out of your property.

While these methods might seem simple in theory, their application requires a comprehensive understanding of wildlife behavior and structural integrity of buildings. That's why DIY methods are not advised. One incorrectly installed exclusion device or poorly sealed hole could potentially allow animals to re-enter your property, putting you back at square one.

Moreover, in the DIY approach, you also run the risk of inadvertently trapping animals inside your property. For instance, if you seal a hole without first ensuring that all animals have left, you could end up with a far more complicated issue, like a decomposing animal in your attic. The resulting smell, insects, and potential for disease are complications that are best avoided.

Moreover, there are little-known facts about wildlife exclusion that highlight its importance. For example, did you know that a mouse can squeeze through a hole as small as a dime? Or that a raccoon can fit through a hole only four inches in diameter? It's facts like these that emphasize the need for professional wildlife exclusion services.

Our team employs a strategic, multi-step process to ensure the efficacy of our services. First, we conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify any potential entry points. We then use the appropriate methods based on the type of wildlife and their identified entry points. Once these measures are in place, we monitor the situation to ensure that the exclusion is effective. If any wildlife is still present, we take additional steps to remove them. Our goal is not just to get rid of the wildlife, but to keep them out long-term.
