Wildlife proofing is the work of sealing your home against raccoons, squirrels, bats, birds and rodents before they get in — and keeping them out for good. Across Canada, animals look for warm, sheltered places to nest, and a typical house gives them plenty of options: open soffits, loose roof vents, gaps along the rooflines, uncapped chimneys and worn fascia boards. Our specialists inspect every potential entry point, then close it off with durable, weather-rated materials built to handle Canadian winters. It is the practical choice for homeowners, landlords and property managers who want the problem solved properly rather than patched.
The process starts with a thorough exterior and attic inspection to find exactly where wildlife is getting in or could get in. From there we recommend a clear plan: humane removal of any animals already present, sealing of every entry point, and reinforcement of the vulnerable spots most likely to be reopened. Once the home is sealed, you get lasting protection without traps left running indefinitely or repeat call-outs. Every job starts with a free, no-obligation quote, so you know the scope and the cost before any work begins.
We start every wildlife proofing job with a full inspection of the roofline, soffits, fascia, foundation and walls to map every gap an animal could use. Each opening is then sealed with heavy-gauge wire mesh, galvanised flashing or wildlife-grade sealant — materials chosen to resist chewing, weather and seasonal expansion so the repair holds through a Canadian winter.
Roof vents, plumbing stacks, gable vents and open chimneys are the most common ways squirrels, raccoons and birds get into an attic. We fit purpose-built vent guards, soffit screening and stainless chimney caps that block animals while still allowing your home to breathe and exhaust properly — keeping airflow and building codes intact.
Humane exclusion lets animals already inside leave on their own, then stops them coming back. We install one-way doors and timed exclusion devices at active entry points so raccoons, squirrels and bats can exit but cannot re-enter, then permanently seal the opening once the space is confirmed clear. Bat work is timed around maternity season to keep it humane and effective.
Mice and rats need only a small gap to get inside, and pigeons and other birds will roost on any sheltered ledge or vent. We seal foundation gaps, utility penetrations and weep holes against rodents, and fit bird netting, spikes and vent covers to stop nesting on roofs, ledges and signage — cutting off the droppings, noise and damage that come with it.
Wildlife in the walls or attic is rarely a problem that fixes itself. A single loose vent or gap in the soffit can let in a raccoon or a family of squirrels, and once they are nesting they chew wiring, tear up insulation, and contaminate the space with droppings and urine. DIY fixes often make it worse — sealing an entry point while an animal is still inside traps it, leading to damage, distress and a dead animal in an inaccessible cavity. Getting wildlife proofing right means finding every entry point, removing animals humanely first, and sealing with materials that actually stand up to chewing and weather.
Done properly, professional wildlife proofing protects your home for years, not weeks. Sealing entry points correctly stops the cycle of animals returning each season, prevents the structural and electrical damage that comes with nesting, and removes the health risks tied to droppings and parasites. It also protects the value of the property — a sealed, animal-free home is one less thing for a buyer, tenant or insurer to flag. Investing in the work once is far cheaper than repeated removals and the repairs that follow.

It is the process of sealing your home so animals cannot get inside. We inspect the roofline, soffits, vents, chimney and foundation to find every gap, humanely remove any animals already present, then close off the openings with durable mesh, flashing and screening so wildlife cannot return.
Yes. We use humane exclusion methods such as one-way doors that let animals already inside leave on their own, then permanently seal the opening once the space is confirmed clear. We never seal an entry point while an animal is still inside, which avoids trapping and the damage that follows.
Most homes are inspected and sealed within a day or two, depending on the size of the property and how many entry points need work. Bat exclusion can take longer because it must be timed around their maternity season to stay humane. We give you a clear timeline with your quote.
Yes. We use heavy-gauge wire mesh, galvanised flashing and wildlife-grade sealants chosen specifically to resist chewing, freezing temperatures and seasonal expansion. The aim is a permanent fix that keeps animals out year after year, not a temporary patch.
It depends on the size of your home, the type of animal and how many entry points need sealing. Because every property is different, we provide a free, no-obligation inspection and a clear written quote up front so you know the full scope and cost before any work starts.
“We had squirrels getting into the attic every autumn. They found the gaps we never even noticed, sealed everything up, and we have had a quiet attic ever since. The inspection was thorough and they explained exactly what they were doing.”
“A raccoon had torn its way in through a roof vent. They removed it humanely and capped every vent on the house so it could not happen again. Clean, professional work and they left the place tidy.”
“We were hearing noises in the walls and worried about mice. They sealed the foundation gaps and vents we had no idea were open. The quote was clear from the start and there were no surprises at the end.”
