Helpful Tips To Keep Critters Out

Keep pet/bird food contained and cleaned up. Never leave pet food outside overnight.
Keep garbage cans stored inside or buy garbage/storage bins with locking lids.
Keep crawlspace doors locked and tightly secured at all times.
Make sure chimneys are securely capped to prevent animals and birds from gaining entry or falling down inside.
Make sure all fan vents, louvre vents, and foundation vents are properly reinforced and covered.
Clear away low or over-hanging tree limbs and vegetation.
Ensure all fascia is sealed off to prevent damage and entry by wildlife.
Cover all roof vents with guards to prevent animals from prying or tearing them off.
Net off ponds and water features, when possible, so as not to provide unwanted wildlife a source of drinking water or food.
When possible, screen off around the base of sheds and low-lying decks to prevent animals from nesting underneath.
