Understanding Squirrel and Raccoon Problems
Squirrels and raccoons are intelligent, highly adaptable animals that frequently enter attics, chimneys, soffits, rooflines, and crawl spaces in search of shelter. While these animals are a natural part of Virginia’s ecosystem, their presence inside structures can quickly lead to serious problems if not addressed properly.
Common issues caused by squirrels and raccoons include:
- Chewed electrical wiring that creates fire hazards
- Destroyed insulation and nesting contamination
- Torn soffits, vents, shingles, and roof decking
- Strong odors and droppings in attics or crawl spaces
- Repeat infestations when entry points are not sealed
Wildlife exclusion focuses on long-term prevention, not temporary removal.
Squirrel Exclusion Services
Squirrels commonly enter homes through rooflines, fascia boards, soffit gaps, attic vents, and construction gaps. Once inside, they build nests, chew continuously, and often cause repeated damage if exclusion is not handled correctly.
Our squirrel exclusion services include:
- Full property inspection to identify squirrel entry points
- Humane one-way exclusion devices that allow squirrels to exit safely
- Identification of nesting locations and travel paths
- Sealing and reinforcing all access points after removal
- Long-term prevention to stop squirrels from returning
Homes experiencing ongoing attic noise, daytime scratching, or repeated squirrel activity may require dedicated squirrel exclusion solutions designed for permanent protection.
Raccoon Exclusion Services
Raccoons are larger, stronger animals that can cause extensive structural damage when entering attics or chimneys. They are primarily active at night and often tear shingles, soffits, vents, and roof decking to gain access.
Our raccoon exclusion services include:
- Safe, humane raccoon exclusion methods
- Chimney, roofline, and attic exclusion solutions
- Structural reinforcement after raccoon removal
- Heavy-duty sealing of all access points
- Recommendations for cleanup and restoration when needed
Properties dealing with recurring raccoon intrusions benefit from specialized raccoon exclusion strategies tailored to larger wildlife.

Not when exclusion is done correctly. We seal all entry points and reinforce vulnerable areas to prevent re-entry.
Is wildlife exclusion better than trapping?

Yes. These animals can damage wiring, insulation, roofing materials, and create fire and health hazards.
Do you offer inspections before exclusion services?
Yes. Every exclusion project begins with a detailed inspection to determine the best solution.
