How To Prevent Wildlife Invasions
Preventing pests from entering your home is always easier than removing them. Use these strategies to secure your property:
  • Seal entry points larger than a quarter-inch with durable materials like steel wool, concrete mortar, or copper mesh.

  • Install a chimney cap with a mesh screen to stop animals from entering through the chimney.

  • Keep tree branches cut back 6 to 8 feet from your roofline.

  • Use heavy-duty trash cans with locking lids, and store them indoors until pickup morning.

  • Bring pet food inside overnight and use squirrel guards on bird feeders.

  • Clear brush piles, hollow logs, and stacked wood near the foundation of your home to eliminate hiding spots.

  • Use motion-activated floodlights, sprinklers, or flashing crawlspace lights to scare off nocturnal foragers.

Why Our Customers Love Us

Mr. Smokestack did a wonderful job for us. I had called for removal of a dead bird behind my damper, inspection of our chimney for installation of a cap, and also dryer vent cleaning. They were so very thorough and patient with my questions and very respectful of my home.

The technician came out and began cleaning, only to find the whole chimney from top to bottom was compacted with debris and dead squirrels. Because the condition was so bad Greg had to come back another day and complete the task which took all day. He was wonderful and made sure to get every bit of debris out of the chimney.

Brandi T.

★★★★★

I had a bat in my home that entered through the chimney. Mr. Smokestack came to inspect the chimney and did a very thorough job. The technician documented both the exterior areas and the interior of the chimney with photos and explained how the bat may have entered the home. I received my quote quickly and will be moving forward with the necessary repairs. Very good experience!
