Seal Entry Points
Wildlife Exclusion and Prevention is crucial for protecting your property from unwanted wildlife. Understanding wildlife entry points, such as those utilized by seals, is vital in developing effective prevention strategies.
Seals’ Entry Points
- Openings in Walls: Seals can squeeze through even small openings in walls or foundations.
- Gaps Around Pipes: Spaces around pipes and cables entering your property provide access points.
- Chimney Flues: Openings in chimney flues can allow seals to enter attics.
- Ventilation Openings: Unsecured or damaged ventilation openings provide easy entry.
Prevention Measures
- Seal Openings: Use expanding foam, caulk, or waterproof sealant to fill any openings or gaps in walls, foundations, or around pipes.
- Install Chimney Caps: Cover chimney flues with durable chimney caps to prevent seal access.
- Secure Ventilation Openings: Install screens or mesh covers over ventilation openings to keep seals out.
- Inspect Regularly: Regularly inspect your property for any new entry points or damage.
