There are several key areas that must be taken into consideration in a
comprehensive
Animal proofing plan. To Animal-Proof Your Home We Suggest You Consider
the Following Areas.
Roof Vents Constructed of light weight aluminum or plastic, they are no
obstacle for animals
seeking entry into attics. Chimneys If not screened properly, they make
suitable living quarters
for raccoons and squirrels. Birds often fall into open chimneys and become
stuck at the bottom.
Sometimes these animals even enter the "living space" of the home. Plumbing
Vent Pipes If left
unprotected, they are an invitation to animals seeking den sites inside
of the house. Once inside the pipe,
wildlife often become stuck and obstruct the normal function of the buildings
plumbing system.
Stove & Bathroom Exhaust Vents If unsecured, they make ideal nesting sites
for birds and
sometimes squirrels. This results in noticeable sounds, odors and insects.
Roof and Fascia
Spaces If not properly constructed or due to deterioration, they offer an
opportunity for wildlife to
chew on the free edge of the wood and gain entry into the attic. Roof -
Soffit Intersection If left
unscreened, they can be easily manipulated by an animal from the outside
in order to establish
a den site inside the attic space. Please consult a Wilderness Animal Control
Service Professional
for a permanent humane solution to your wildlife problem.
