Wildlife Damage Repair

Wild animals invade homes in search of food, water, and a place to nest. They need these to survive. Unfortunately, the invasion comes with health risks and damage to your home. If you do not address the invasion as soon as you notice it, the small damage snowballs into a major renovation and replacement project to fix structural damage. Now, whether it’s a big or small wild animal, it can still cause real damage.

As such, you should call wildlife removal professionals to get rid of the infestation and repair the damage caused. At Advanced Wildlife Removal, we have a team of experienced wildlife removers who can trace entry points, seal them, and repair damage caused to your home. Contact us today for a consultation.

Common Wildlife Damage to Homes

When wild animals are looking for a way into your house, they will damage the house to gain access to your attic or basement and cause even more damage inside. Generally, entry-point repairs are simple, but they can be worse depending on the size of the infestation and the type of nuisance animal in question.

When you first notice signs of an infestation, call professional wildlife removers to help. Some of the damage that may need to be addressed include:

• • Chewed wires which increase the risk of fire

• • Gnawed rafters and beams which affect the structural integrity of your home

• • Damaged AC ducts and entry-points

• • Contaminated or insulated attic solution

• • Nest and animal latrine spots

• • Damage to entry spaces along the baseboards

Once the unwanted pests are removed and the damage identified, repairs should start immediately. Advanced Wildlife Removal is dedicated to ensuring your home is safe for you and your family. We’ll also implement exclusion techniques to prevent future invasions.

Wildlife Decontamination

Besides physical damage, wildlife usually leaves behind fur and feces and carries health risks. For instance, rodent droppings can cause salmonellosis, while raccoon feces transmit raccoon roundworm.

You’ll find animal excrement in different places depending on the animal that has invaded your space. For squirrels, bats, and raccoons, the attic will be most affected, while for rodents, the kitchen is heavily affected.

Decontamination is a risky and filthy job – one that our team is trained and willing to handle well. We’ll remove the waste deposits and disinfect your home to get rid of bacteria, allergens, and diseases left by unwanted critters.

Attic Restoration and Insulation

A spike in heating and cooling costs can be a sign of a wildlife infestation. When an animal nests in your attic, it uses available materials to stay warm and comfortable. The nests are often built from HVAC ductwork or insulation, although cloth, paper, and cardboard boxes are the most common materials.

Duct damage and accumulation of nesting material reduce the system’s efficiency, resulting in a spike in energy bills. Our team will inspect your attic and insulation to guarantee its integrity. If it’s severely damaged, we’ll replace it to restore energy efficiency and adhere to the guidelines of the US Department of Energy.

Additional Repairs

Besides decontamination and attic insulation, Advanced Wildlife Removal offers a host of repair services, including:

Caulking and Sealing

By sealing every crack and crevice in your house, we’ll save you on energy costs and keep unwanted animals out. We use industry-standard materials to guarantee an excellent job in the problem areas we identify.

Screen and Chimney Cap Installation

Raccoons, squirrels, and birds prefer nesting in chimneys. We can prevent entry through the chimney by installing a chimney screen or cap. When installing these barriers, we’ll repair chimney sections that have been weakened by extreme temperatures and damaged by wildlife activity.

Leaf Guards and Gutter Cleaning

If left untreated, clogged gutters can cause water damage to your home’s exterior and foundation. Advance Wildlife Removal can clean up nesting material and install gutter guards to protect your home from leaks, rotting windows, soffits, fascia boards, mold, and mildew.

Deodorizing Crawlspaces

You’ll know you have a wildlife problem when you notice unpleasant odors. Even when the wildlife is gone, the stink remains and can attract insects, parasites, and other pests. To prevent this, we deodorize the attic and all nesting spots.
