Wildlife Removal - 3 squirrel traps plus one way trap installed in Middlesex.
We needed to ensure that all attic entry points, but one, were sealed. The objective is to funnel the squirrels and force them to use only one exit that has a "one-way" installed. A one-way wildlife door excluder acts just like a one-way valve. It permits the flow in only one direction. With a one-way, squirrels can exit the attic, but are blocked from returning.
After installing the one-way, we set four live traps, and hopefully, over the next few days we'll be able to safely trap and relocate these trespassing squirrels.
The lesson of this job for other homeowners is the importance of maintaining your home's exterior - even simple tasks like gutter cleaning. Cowleys offers full gutter cleaning services for homeowners who do not have the time, interest, or mobility to be climbing up and down ladders to do it themselves. Ladder falls can cause significant life-changing injuries. If you are not up to doing it, don't! Any medical bills and rehabilitation costs will far exceed the cost of a professional gutter cleaning service. Cowleys technicians will come out and remove all the gutter debris to allow proper water flow throughout the gutters to the downspouts. Then, to make sure that everything is functioning properly and all of the water is properly discharged, we run water through the drains. Gutter cleaning, while simple, is a critical home maintenance task, especially for those homes surrounded by trees. Homeowners ignore it at their own peril. For this homeowner, the property damage to his roof and fascia far exceeded the cost of annual preventative maintenance. Please don't make the same mistake!
