Proper vent covers and installation are critical when it comes to protecting your home. At Wildman Pest & Wildlife, we provide comprehensive solutions for all types of exterior vulnerabilities.
It’s extremely common for squirrels and birds to take advantage of older plastic vent covers—especially the ones with the three exterior louvers. Over time, exposure to sunlight causes the plastic to become brittle, crack, and eventually break apart. Once that happens, it creates the perfect entry point for wildlife.
In most cases, this damage is simply due to age and weathering. But we’ve also seen animals chew through even newer vent covers to gain access.
That’s why we install high-quality custom metal vent covers—designed not only to look clean and professional, but to provide a long-term, durable solution that keeps animals out for good.
