Wildlife Exclusion & Proofing for Iowa homes and businesses

Getting wildlife exclusion & proofing done properly in Iowa means removal and sealing in the same job. The whole building sealed properly, so removal is a one-time job rather than an annual one. Doing only the first half is why so many people call us second.

Older properties in Iowa tend to have several entry points rather than one. Soffit returns, ridge vents, fascia gaps and chimney flashing all fail slowly, and animals find the failures long before people do.

Iowa calls spike every autumn as mice and squirrels move indoors, with raccoons using open chimneys and bats in older two-storey homes.

Call (276) 319-2391 or request an inspection and we will book a window that works.

What Iowa customers say

★★★★★

Skunk under the deck. Barrier trenched in, den cleared, and the lawn grub treatment stopped the digging that was attracting them.

Tom B., Iowa
★★★★★

Yellowjacket nest inside the siding. Handled in one visit and they came back a week later to confirm it was done. No charge for that.

Wildlife Exclusion & Proofing in Iowa: frequently asked questions

What is wildlife exclusion?
Sealing every viable entry point on a building so animals cannot get in. Roof returns, soffits, fascia, vents, chimney, crawl space and utility penetrations.
Is it worth doing before I have a problem?
Yes, and it is cheaper. Preventive exclusion costs a fraction of removal plus attic restoration after a season of occupancy.
When is the best time in Iowa?
Late summer, before the autumn push indoors. Sealing a building after animals are already inside means removal has to come first.
Do you warranty the work?
Yes. Sealed points carry a written warranty. If something gets back in through one of them, we return and fix it at no charge.
How long does a full exclusion take?
Most single-family homes are one to two days depending on roof line complexity, height and construction type.
Will it damage how my house looks?
No. Sealing uses colour-matched materials and hardware cloth behind vents rather than visible patches. We photograph the finished work so you can see it.
Do you handle commercial properties in Iowa?
Yes. Restaurants, warehouses, retail, offices, schools and multi-unit housing, usually scheduled overnight or after hours so you do not lose trading time. Documentation is provided for inspections.
Do you remove animals humanely?
Wherever the species and season allow, yes. Live capture and one-way exclusion doors are the default. We do not seal young inside a structure, which is why timing matters for bats and spring litters.
