When it comes to pest control inspections, it’s important to thoroughly assess both the exterior and interior areas of your house. A comprehensive inspection will accurately identify the pest infestation, the entry points, and any animal damage. Starting with the exterior, our professionals pay close attention to the roof and chimneys. Pests like rats, squirrels, or birds often find their way into these areas, causing damage and creating entry points into your home.
Proper equipment, training, and knowledge are essential for a safe and effective home inspection. Nuisance animals can access areas of your home that people rarely investigate like the roof and chimneys. Here is a recent pest inspection from the Trutech Wildlife Service team in Charlotte, NC.
Identify Damage to Exterior of the House
Pests like squirrels, birds, and raccoons can bring outside materials inside your house to create a den or a nest. Leaves, sticks, branches, moss, and other foliage combined with materials like cardboard, insulation, or cloth to create nests inside your house. Attics and walls are common places where we find animal nests. A sharp eye can find leaves and sticks near entry gaps.

Identify Entry Holes and Gaps
Pest and nuisance wildlife can enter a house in tiny nooks and crannies. Finding entry holes for squirrels, rats, and bats can sometimes be impossible from the ground. Sometimes these gaps can be easily missed by the untrained eye. Professional wildlife control operators have the skills and knowledge to know where and what to look for.
