Now that the weather is becoming nippy every day, many wildlife species are looking for warm places to steer clear of the cold months of winter.
And as we speak, you may be experiencing some raccoon or skunks problems.
However, if you’re determined to keep these critters off your property, we’re here to help. It is best to let in a professional help you with the following wildlife-proofing steps;
- We’ll start by first evaluating both the interior and the exterior of your property
The inspection helps identify or know what we’re dealing with. Most of these critters will often enter your property using small spaces like cracks and crevices.
So will identify all cracks and any entrance points and seal them off.
We’ll also look for any signs of their presence in your interiors, like damaged wood, droppings, and any other indications, and deal with it.
- Repair or replace screens on capping chimneys and vents
Missing or damaged screens are potential entry points for most critters. The experts will also evaluate your screens and cover them as needed.
- Clearing vegetation that is too near to your property
Some wildlife like squirrels will often use the trees and bushes close to your property to gain access to the roof of your property. Once on the top, they can do a lot more damage, even before they get into your home.
So, it is vital to cut back the overgrown vegetation close to your home to limit these wildlife access points.
- Deal with water damaged areas like the areas around your gutter system
A water-damaged fascia is a problem that leaves the wood in this area vulnerable to be chewed by animals. So have your water-damaged areas fixed as soon as possible.
- Install barriers on your decks and porches
Several species will often attempt to play house under your decks and patios. Installing barriers will prevent this from happening.
- Set up alternative nesting areas
Sometimes, you may fail to eliminate some of these creatures, like squirrels. If you want to have peace, you can have your professionals install nesting areas for these animals.
This way, the animals can choose these nesting areas instead of your home.
