Wildlife Getting Into Your Home? Stop the Entry Before It Happens Again.
If wildlife has found a way into your home, removing the animal may only solve part of the problem. An open or vulnerable entry point can leave your property exposed to repeated wildlife activity.

Professional Wildlife Exclusion That Addresses How Animals Get Inside
When wildlife repeatedly enters your home, there is usually a reason: the structure is providing a way in.
Squirrels, raccoons, bats, birds, and other nuisance wildlife can take advantage of damaged soffits, vulnerable rooflines, unsecured vents, chimney openings, fascia gaps, and other exterior access points.
Some wildlife entry points are obvious. Others can be small, elevated, hidden behind building components, or difficult to identify from ground level.
GIROSS provides professional wildlife exclusion focused on locating these access areas, evaluating the wildlife activity associated with them, and determining the appropriate solution for the property.
Our goal is not simply to cover a visible hole.
We want to understand how wildlife is gaining access so the problem can be addressed at its source.
Wildlife entering through the roofline? Damaged soffit? Open vent? Activity around your chimney?
Don’t wait for another animal to find the same opening.

Wildlife Exclusion Is More Than Just Sealing a Hole
Finding an opening around your home does not necessarily mean that simply closing it will solve the wildlife problem.
The first step is understanding whether wildlife is actively using the opening, what area of the structure it accesses, and whether other vulnerable entry points may also be present.
If wildlife is still inside, permanently closing an active opening without understanding the situation can create a different problem.
That’s why professional Wildlife Exclusion Services require more than simply locating a gap and covering it.
At GIROSS, our approach focuses on understanding the wildlife activity, identifying the areas that are allowing access, and determining the appropriate exclusion solution for the property.
Our Wildlife Exclusion Approach Can Include:
- Wildlife exclusion inspection
- Identification of active entry points
- Assessment of potential secondary openings
- Roofline and soffit inspection
- Fascia and exterior-gap assessment
- Roof and gable vent inspection
- Chimney access assessment
- Attic entry-point evaluation
- Appropriate entry-point sealing or protection
- Screening or reinforcement where appropriate
- Wildlife-related damage assessment
- Recommendations designed to help reduce re-entry
The Goal Isn’t Simply to Close an Opening. The Goal Is to Address How Wildlife Is Getting Inside.
Wildlife Exclusion Services for Homes & Businesses
Wildlife can find its way into almost any type of property when a vulnerable entry point is available.
Homes, apartment buildings, offices, restaurants, warehouses, retail locations, and other structures can develop openings around rooflines, soffits, vents, chimneys, exterior walls, and other areas that nuisance wildlife may use for access.
GIROSS provides professional Wildlife Exclusion Services for residential and commercial properties. We focus on identifying how wildlife is getting into the structure, evaluating the areas associated with that activity, and recommending the appropriate exclusion solution.
If wildlife has already found a way into your property, don’t wait for the same entry point to become a recurring problem.

Wildlife Exclusion for Common Nuisance Animals
Different wildlife species can use different areas of a structure to gain access.
Understanding the type of animal involved can help determine where to look for entry points and which areas of the property may require exclusion.
GIROSS provides Wildlife Exclusion Services for entry problems involving squirrels, raccoons, bats, birds, and other nuisance wildlife.
Squirrel Exclusion
Squirrels are skilled climbers and can reach vulnerable areas around rooflines, soffits, fascia, and vents.
Once an accessible opening is discovered, squirrels may continue using the same route to enter protected areas of the structure.
Professional squirrel exclusion focuses on identifying the access associated with the activity and determining how that area should be protected.
Raccoon Exclusion
Raccoons are strong animals capable of taking advantage of damaged or weakened exterior areas.
Potential access can occur around roof edges, soffits, chimneys, and other structural vulnerabilities.
Raccoon exclusion begins by understanding where the activity is occurring and identifying the areas that may be providing access.
Bat Exclusion
Bats can use relatively small openings around rooflines, vents, and other exterior areas.
Because their access points may be difficult to identify from ground level, careful evaluation of the structure is important.
Bat exclusion should be performed using an approach appropriate for the circumstances, species, and applicable requirements.
Bird Exclusion
Birds can take advantage of openings around vents, roof areas, chimneys, and other sheltered portions of a building.
When recurring bird activity is connected to an accessible structural opening, professional exclusion can help address the area being used for entry or nesting.
Other Wildlife Exclusion
Other nuisance wildlife may exploit openings around crawl spaces, decks, porches, sheds, foundations, and exterior structures.
If you are seeing recurring wildlife activity but aren’t sure where the animal is getting in, GIROSS can inspect the situation and determine whether Wildlife Exclusion is appropriate.
Don’t Know Where Wildlife Is Getting In?

Common Wildlife Entry Points We Inspect
Finding the Way In Is One of the Most Important Parts of Wildlife Exclusion.
A wildlife problem inside your home begins somewhere outside.
The challenge is that the opening responsible for the intrusion may not be obvious. It may be located high along the roofline, behind a damaged soffit, around a vent, near a chimney, or in another portion of the structure that is difficult to inspect from the ground.
That’s why professional Wildlife Exclusion should focus on identifying the access associated with the activity—not simply sealing random gaps around the property.
Common Areas We Evaluate Include:
Rooflines
Gaps and vulnerable areas along roof edges can provide access to protected spaces inside the structure.
Soffits
Loose, damaged, or deteriorated soffits can create openings wildlife may exploit.
Fascia
Damage or gaps around fascia areas can contribute to wildlife access along the roof.
Roof Vents
Damaged screens or vulnerable areas surrounding vents may provide an entry route.
Gable Vents
Unprotected or compromised vents can provide direct access toward attic areas.
Chimney Areas
Wildlife may take advantage of unprotected openings or vulnerable areas associated with chimney structures.
Attic Openings
Exterior gaps that connect with attic spaces can become recurring wildlife access points.
Exterior Wall Openings
Construction gaps, deterioration, or damage may create additional access opportunities.
Crawl-Space Openings
Lower portions of the structure can also require exclusion depending on the wildlife activity.
Find the Entry Point. Address the Access. Help Reduce Re-Entry.
You don’t have to locate the opening yourself.

Our Wildlife Exclusion Process
Professional Wildlife Exclusion starts with understanding how wildlife is accessing your property. Instead of simply sealing visible openings, we evaluate the activity, identify potential entry points, and determine the appropriate exclusion solution for the structure.
Here’s what you can expect when you call GIROSS:
1. Tell Us What’s Happening
Tell us what you’ve noticed around your property.
Maybe you’re hearing recurring activity, seeing wildlife around the roofline, noticing damage around a soffit or vent, or you’ve already had an animal removed and want to address the way it got inside.
The information you provide helps us understand where to begin.
2. Inspect the Property
We evaluate the areas associated with the reported wildlife activity and look for signs that may indicate where animals are gaining access.
Depending on the property, this may include attic areas, rooflines, soffits, fascia, vents, chimney areas, exterior openings, and other accessible portions of the structure.
3. Identify Wildlife Entry Points
Finding the entry point is one of the most important parts of Wildlife Exclusion.
We look for openings, damaged materials, gaps, disturbed areas, and other evidence that may indicate how wildlife is getting inside.
Our focus is not simply finding an opening.
We want to identify the openings relevant to the wildlife activity.
4. Evaluate Active Wildlife Activity
Before permanent exclusion work is completed, we consider whether wildlife may still be actively using the structure.
This is important because an active entry point should not simply be permanently closed without understanding the wildlife situation.
The appropriate approach depends on the conditions found during the inspection.
5. Develop the Wildlife Exclusion Plan
Once we understand the wildlife activity and entry areas, we explain what should be addressed.
The exclusion plan may involve one or multiple access points depending on the property.
You’ll know what areas are involved and what we recommend before the exclusion work proceeds.
6. Complete the Exclusion Work
Identified entry areas are addressed using exclusion methods appropriate for the location and structure.
Depending on the conditions found, this may involve sealing, screening, reinforcing, or otherwise protecting vulnerable access areas.
Our objective is to address the openings associated with wildlife entry while avoiding unnecessary work on unrelated portions of the property.
7. Help Reduce the Risk of Re-Entry
Once the appropriate exclusion work is completed, we can explain any additional vulnerabilities or recommendations identified during the service.
The goal is simple:
Address how wildlife is getting inside and help reduce the possibility of the same access problem happening again.

Wildlife Got In Once. What’s Stopping It From Getting In Again?
When wildlife enters your home, there is usually an access point somewhere on the structure.
Removing the immediate animal doesn’t necessarily make that opening disappear.
A damaged soffit can remain damaged.
A vulnerable vent can remain accessible.
A roofline gap can still provide an opportunity for entry.
And an opening discovered by one animal may eventually be discovered by another.
That’s why Wildlife Exclusion can be an important part of resolving a recurring wildlife problem.
Don’t Know Where the Animal Is Getting In?
That’s okay.
You don’t need to find the entry point yourself.
Many wildlife access points are located above ground level or in areas that are difficult to see without a closer inspection.
You may only know that something has been getting inside.
GIROSS can evaluate the wildlife activity, inspect potential access areas, and help determine what should be addressed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wildlife Exclusion
What Is Wildlife Exclusion?
Wildlife exclusion is the process of identifying and addressing openings or vulnerable areas that nuisance wildlife can use to enter a home or building.
Professional exclusion focuses on understanding where wildlife is gaining access and determining the appropriate way to protect those areas.
What Is the Difference Between Wildlife Removal and Wildlife Exclusion?
Wildlife removal addresses the animal creating the immediate problem.
Wildlife Exclusion addresses how the animal is getting into the structure.
Depending on the situation, resolving active wildlife and addressing the entry point may both be necessary.
How Much Does Wildlife Exclusion Cost?
The cost of Wildlife Exclusion depends on the conditions of the property.
Factors can include the location and number of entry points, accessibility, type of structure, extent of damage, and amount of exclusion work required.
Because two properties can have very different access problems, an inspection is the best way to determine the appropriate scope of work.
Call GIROSS at (240) 780-7174 to request service.
How Do I Know If My Home Needs Wildlife Exclusion?
Recurring wildlife activity is one of the strongest indicators.
You may also notice damaged soffits, openings around the roofline, compromised vents, exterior damage, repeated activity around one area of the structure, or signs that wildlife has been entering an attic or other protected space.
If you know wildlife has been getting inside but don’t know where, an exclusion inspection can help identify potential access points.
Where Does Wildlife Commonly Enter a House?
Potential wildlife entry points can include:
- Rooflines
- Soffits
- Fascia
- Roof vents
- Gable vents
- Chimney areas
- Exterior structural gaps
- Crawl-space openings
- Other damaged or vulnerable exterior areas
The actual entry point depends on the property and wildlife activity.
Is Wildlife Exclusion Just Sealing Holes?
No.
Professional Wildlife Exclusion involves more than finding a hole and closing it.
The wildlife activity, location of the opening, condition of the structure, and possibility of animals still being inside should be evaluated before permanent exclusion work is performed.
The objective is to address relevant wildlife access points, not indiscriminately seal every opening on a building.
Can Wildlife Exclusion Help Keep Animals From Coming Back?
Wildlife Exclusion is designed to address identified access points and help reduce the likelihood of wildlife re-entering through those areas.
It is important to distinguish this from promising that wildlife will never approach the property again.
Animals can continue to live and travel outdoors. Exclusion focuses on making identified structural access points less available to them.
Should Wildlife Exclusion Be Done Before or After the Animal Is Removed?
That depends on the wildlife activity and conditions found.
If an animal is actively using an opening, the situation should be evaluated before permanent exclusion work is completed.
This is one reason an inspection is important—the correct sequence should be based on what is actually happening at the property.
Can You Find Where Wildlife Is Getting Into My Home?
Identifying potential and active entry points is a central part of our Wildlife Exclusion Service.
We evaluate the areas associated with the wildlife activity and look for openings, damage, gaps, and other evidence that may indicate where animals are gaining access.
Do You Provide Wildlife Exclusion for Roofs and Soffits?
Wildlife access commonly occurs around rooflines, soffits, fascia, vents, and other elevated areas.
GIROSS can evaluate accessible areas associated with the wildlife problem and recommend the appropriate exclusion solution based on the conditions found.
Do You Provide Wildlife Exclusion for Vents?
Yes, wildlife activity involving roof vents, gable vents, and other exterior ventilation areas can be evaluated as part of an exclusion service.
Because vents have an important function, the appropriate solution should address wildlife access without unnecessarily interfering with the intended ventilation.
Can Wildlife Enter Through a Chimney?
Certain wildlife can access homes through unprotected chimney openings or areas associated with the chimney structure.
If wildlife activity appears to involve a chimney, GIROSS can inspect the situation and determine what exclusion measures may be appropriate.
How Long Does Wildlife Exclusion Take?
The time required depends on the number of entry points, their accessibility, the condition of the structure, and the amount of work needed.
A property with one accessible entry point may require a very different scope of service from a building with multiple roofline vulnerabilities.
Is Professional Wildlife Exclusion Worth It?
If wildlife has already entered a home, understanding how it gained access can be an important part of preventing the same structural problem from continuing.
Professional exclusion provides an assessment of the access areas and a solution based on the actual property rather than relying on guesswork.
Stop Wildlife From Getting Back Inside
If wildlife has found a way into your home, don’t leave the entry point unaddressed.
GIROSS provides professional Wildlife Exclusion Services designed to identify wildlife access points and help protect vulnerable areas of your property.
