A solution to a nuisance animal in a home is pretty simple in theory:

1. Remove the unwanted animal
2. Make a good repair

So, when animals get in, we get them out and keep them out.  That is our business model in a nutshell.

A lot of nuisance animal removal companies, however, don’t do much repair work.  These companies stick to trapping problem animals only.

Once these trappers leave, a separate contractor is often needed to do the repair/prevention work that needs performed for a lasting solution.

Full service nuisance animal removal professionals like Frontline Animal Removal are often able and willing to handle both parts of the job.

In fact, offering quality repair services is one of the ways we try to stand out from the crowd.  We think it makes a lot of sense to perform both aspects of the job and believe it is a real value to our clients.

However, just removing the animal or just making the repair is something we are comfortable with too.

Repairs Help Home Long Term

Some animals cause damage to homes.  Some animals show up because there is already damage to homes.  Often, the damage (Opportunity for the animals) is present first.  Here is an example.

To the right is what we found on the balcony of a home that has had nuisance animal problems.

As you can see, this piece of wood is older and has been exposed to the elements for years.  Nails are popping out and the edges of the boards no longer meet.  A significant gap has opened up.  This gap not only lets water into the cavity below it along this railing, but it attracts curious animals and gives them places to explore and possibly live in.

The hollow area that this balcony railing makes has been explored by animals and that is why we are at this home.

After dealing with the animals, the next important step is to fix this area to keep water and other animals out.  Deciding which repair is accomplished is up to the homeowner based on our recommendations.  In this case, removal of the old wood and replacing with new is definitely an option.  Covering the old wood with metal trim is also appropriate.  That was what was done in this case.

After 1) animal removal 2) trim installation & 3) caulking the seams, this railing and the cavity it creates will no longer have water or animals getting into it.  That extends the life of this balcony railing.  Home maintenance always lurks in the background, but the owner can take a deep breath for a while and avoid a full re-build.

This video shows the situation in greater detail.
