Animal Proofing Your Home Or Business
Keep Wildlife Out: The Importance of Animal Proofing Your Home or Business
Unwanted wildlife in your home or business is more than just a nuisance—it can cause serious damage, health risks, and long-term stress. That’s where animal proofing and attic remediation comes in. It’s the proactive step of sealing gaps, securing vulnerable areas, and creating a barrier between your property and invading pests like raccoons, squirrels, bats, mice, and even insects and snakes.
What Is Animal Proofing?
Animal proofing is the process of identifying and sealing entry points around your home or building to prevent animals from getting inside. Common entry points include:
- Gaps in soffit-vents and fascia
- Roof vents and ridge vents
- Foundation cracks or crawlspace vents
- Gutter lines and attic access points
- Chimneys and dryer vents
- Openings around pipes, cables, or utility lines
If you’ve ever heard scratching in the attic, chirping in the walls, or seen droppings in the garage, there’s a good chance animals are already inside—or very close.
Why Animal Proofing Is Necessary
Here’s what can happen if your home isn’t properly animal proofed:
- Structural damage: Animals chew wires, tear insulation, and gnaw through wood or ductwork.
- Health hazards: Feces, urine, and parasites (like fleas, ticks, or mites) can cause major health concerns or even infestations.
- Reinfestation: Even after removal, animals often return if entry points remain unsealed.
- Increased repair costs: The longer the animals stay, the more costly the damage repairs become.
By investing in professional animal proofing, you prevent all of this before it happens—or stop it from happening again.
