⛈️ Storms Don’t Just Leave Behind Tree Damage… They Can Leave an Open Door for Wildlife. 🦝🐿️🦇
After heavy rain, strong winds, or severe storms, it’s a good idea to take a walk around your home and look for any new damage. Even a small opening can become an invitation for unwanted guests looking for a safe, dry place to call home.
Here are a few things to check:
🌳 Missing or lifted shingles
🌬️ Damaged soffits and fascia
🏠 Loose siding or trim
🕳️ Gaps around rooflines, vents, and chimneys
🌲 Fallen branches resting on your roof
🪜 Bent or damaged attic vents
Raccoons, squirrels, bats, birds, mice, and other wildlife are quick to take advantage of storm damage—especially if they’re searching for shelter or a place to raise their young.
The best defense is catching problems early before they become expensive repairs or turn into a wildlife eviction.
If you notice signs of damage or hear scratching, thumping, or chirping in your attic or walls after a storm, give ARC Wildlife Removal a call. We can inspect your home, safely remove any wildlife, and seal entry points to help keep your home protected.
Stay safe, and don’t forget to inspect your home after the next storm! 🌧️🏡
