Frequently Asked Questions About Preventative Measures

When is the best time to implement preventative measures?

The best time is now, before you have a wildlife problem. However, preventative measures are valuable at any time. Many homeowners implement them after resolving a wildlife issue to prevent recurrence. Fall is particularly important as many animals seek shelter for winter.

How much do preventative measures typically cost?

Costs vary depending on your property's size and specific needs, but preventative measures are always more affordable than dealing with an active infestation and the damage it causes. We provide free consultations and detailed estimates for all preventative services.

Can I implement preventative measures myself?

Some simple measures like securing garbage cans and removing attractants can be DIY projects. However, comprehensive prevention requires professional expertise to identify all vulnerabilities and implement effective solutions. Our trained technicians know exactly what to look for and how to address it properly.

How often should preventative measures be updated?

We recommend annual inspections to ensure all preventative measures remain effective. Weather, aging materials, and new construction can create vulnerabilities over time. Regular maintenance ensures your property stays protected year after year.
