Squirrels, raccoons, bats, skunks, and groundhogs all exploit the same weakness: a gap in the structure. The durable fix is always remove first, then seal.
Most residential wildlife problems start at the roofline, gable vents, soffits, chimneys, or grade-level gaps. The animal finds the opening, nests, and leaves damage and contamination behind. Bats are a special case - protected, so the work is one-way exclusion rather than removal.
The pattern that works for all of them is the same: inspect and map every entry, remove the animals humanely and within Virginia regulations, then seal the gaps with branded exclusion products and clean up the mess. Trapping without sealing only opens the door for the next intruder, which is why exclusion is the heart of the job.
