Animal Proofing a Deck
Have you ever heard, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, animal proofing will save you a lot of headache in the future. This is especially true with animals that are repeatedly digging under your porch, deck, crawlspace, or shed. Common animals that dig under decks are groundhogs, skunks, foxes and opossums. None of which are animals you want to live under your house. Why pay year after year to get the animal trapped out? When you can call us now and get your home animal proofed it may cost a little more now but will be much more cost effective in the long run. We are professionals at animal proofing (animal exclusion) homes from top to bottom. We especially specialize with porch and deck animal proofing, all of our exclusions come with a warranty.
Remember its to late once that skunk has sprayed under your porch. We catch what ever animals are living under the porch at the time, you do not want to trap an animal under your porch. Then install our animal proofing which is galvanized steel mesh anchored to the deck and buried in the ground at least 18″. This does not hurt the animal but deters the animal from getting inside. Animal proofing is like making your home into a banker that the wildlife cant over run. It is much easier to stop an animal from digging under your porch than it is to get one out that is already under there. Also if you have animal proofing under and around your home, the animal will have to move on to the next place to look for a home. Which could quite possible be your mean neighbor that you don’t like. So if you need your home animal proofed, please call your local animal proofing professional, Jesse James Critter Gitters.
