Raccoons, opossums, and squirrels frequently invade Tampa attics, especially in older homes with multiple roof access points. Our exclusion services humanely remove animals and permanently seal entry points with heavy-duty materials.
We start by identifying all potential access areas - from damaged soffits to uncapped chimney flues. After ensuring no young are present, we install one-way doors that let animals leave but prevent re-entry. Final steps include thorough cleaning of contaminated areas and odor neutralization.
For homes near wooded areas or waterways, we reinforce vulnerable areas with wildlife-proof materials. We also trim overhanging branches that provide animal highways to your roof.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if there are babies in the attic?
We'll wait until young are mobile enough to leave with the mother, then seal the entry points - never separating families.
How do you keep animals from just making new entry points?
We use materials like heavy-gauge steel that wildlife can't chew through, installed with techniques proven in Tampa's climate.
Will exclusion work for armadillos under my shed?
Yes, we install underground barriers to prevent digging animals from returning to their burrows.
