Bird & Rodent Exclusion
Bird and rodent exclusion: sealing vents, gaps and openings
In fall, every mouse, squirrel and bird in the forest is looking for a warm spot, and an empty vacation home is perfect. They get in through dryer vents, foundation vents, gaps at the roofline and holes around pipes.
I find the openings and close them properly: hardware cloth and vent covers, metal mesh in gaps, sealed penetrations and repaired soffits, so they can't chew back in.
Common jobs
- Clearing old nests from dryer, bath and kitchen vents
- Installing bird-proof vent covers and guards
- Screening foundation and crawlspace vents
- Sealing gaps around pipes, cables and decks
- Soffit, fascia and gable vent repairs
- Chimney cap installs
- Repairing chewed or damaged siding and trim
Scope
I seal openings and repair damage. I don't trap, poison or remove live animals. For an active infestation, a licensed pest control company comes first, then I close up the entry points.

Bird & Rodent Exclusion: questions
Do you remove animals?
No. I don't trap or remove live animals. If they're still inside, start with a licensed pest control company. Once they're out, I seal up the entry points.
How do mice get into a house?
Through gaps as small as a dime: around pipes, under doors, at foundation vents and where decks meet the house. Most homes have several.
Can you clean out my dryer vent?
I can clear nests and debris from the exterior vent and fit a bird-proof cover. For long vent runs, a dedicated dryer vent cleaning service has better equipment.
