Protecting the Gable Vent from Squirrels in Wall Township, NJ

Challenge

A short while ago, this homeowner in Wall Township, NJ, was having an issue with squirrels roaming around his attic and causing a mess. They were able to infest the home via the gable vent. Nuisance wildlife infesting a home via the gable vents is very common. Over time, the gable vents get weathered and squirrels, raccoons, birds, and bats have no problem ripping away these vents to find shelter inside a home.

In a short amount of time, we safely retrieved and relocated all the squirrels that infested the home and disinfected the attic area. Now we're going to exclude them, and other nuisance wildlife, from reinfesting the home via the gable vent. 

Solution

To do this, we installed Pest-Blok over the gable vent. Pest-Blok doesn't restrict the airflow to the attic, undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process that makes it last longer, and guards the home against squirrels and all nuisance wildlife.
