Expert Wildlife Exclusion Services in Portland, Maine

Identification of Entry Points

We conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify potential access points that animals like raccoons, bats, or squirrels might use to enter your home or business. Small cracks in walls, gaps around vents, or damaged roofing materials are common entry points for these wildlife animals. Additionally, poorly sealed doors, windows, and utility openings can also provide easy access.

Sealing and Reinforcing Vulnerable Areas

Once we have identified all the potential entry points, we move on to sealing and reinforcing these areas. We use durable materials like heavy-duty wire mesh, steel wool, and caulk to close off gaps and cracks. It stops wildlife from squeezing through small openings or chewing their way inside. Reinforcing these areas is especially important around places like attics, basements, and rooflines, where animals often try to nest. 

Safe and Humane Wildlife Removal

If you already have wildlife inside your home or building, our team can safely remove them without causing harm. We use humane methods and traps to capture animals such as raccoons, squirrels, and birds. After capturing them, we release the animals in suitable habitats far away from your property. Our approach is both effective and compassionate.

Wildlife Barrier Installation 

For added protection, we install specialized barriers that keep wildlife away from your property. These barriers include chimney caps to prevent birds or bats from entering your home and mesh screens for vents and gutters to stop animals from nesting. Gutter guards, in particular, help keep wildlife out while also reducing debris buildup. Other barrier installations, like fencing around crawl spaces and reinforced attic vents, create strong defenses against wildlife intrusion.

Long-Term Wildlife Prevention

We provide expert advice and practical solutions for preventing future wildlife problems. Keeping outdoor areas clean, securing garbage bins, and removing food sources are some simple steps you can take to minimize the risk of wildlife attraction. Additionally, regular inspections and maintenance of your property help keep it wildlife-proof over time.
