Exclusion and Prevention

Long-term Pest Control Prevention

Did You Know?

Animal droppings and abandoned nests can serve as an attractant for other pests and wildlife.

Trusted by Millions

For over 40 years, your neighbors have chosen us to protect their family and their home from nuisance wildlife.

Ethan, came to the rescue! It looks like he won the war on our uninvited guests who tried to live rent free. The price has been paid and hopefully they have been eternally evicted! Thank you Ethan for being the knowledgeable professional that you are. Keep up the great work!

After your home is secure, it is vital to restore it. Wildlife do not make the best house guests. They can cause damage when entering and living in your home. These unwelcome guests might infect your family with diseases or parasites. Trutech offers services to repair damage, close entry points, and disinfect affected areas.

How to Prevent Wildlife Problems?

The best long-term wildlife control is to physically prevent the animal from re-entering. Our exclusion process seals all current and potential entry gaps that animals like raccoons and squirrels use to squeeze into your house.

  • Eco-friendly and chemical-free wildlife control.
  • Starts working immediately after installation.
  • Backed by our one-year warranty.
From squirrels or raccoons in the attic or rats under the house; our local experts assess your property, identify the pests, and point point entry gaps.

Our Exclusion Services

Leak sealing icon

Seal holes and Cover openings

Wildlife can squeeze into extremely small spaces (pencil width is big enough for many rodents) so it’s important to make sure they are completely sealed.

Vent sealing icon

Seal Vents

Many rodents utilize ridge vents, foundational vents, and off-ridge vents to gain access to your home. Blocking access to these vents greatly increases the protection you have against unwanted wildlife.

Ground defense icon

Erect Fences and Bury Barriers

Dig defense prevents animals like armadillos, rats, raccoons, and groundhogs from digging underneath property foundations, sheds, and fences.

Repair icon

Seal Chimneys

Chimneys are popular hiding spots for a variety of wildlife. Installing a proper cap on your chimney keeps animals out while protecting your property.

Why Choose Trutech

attic inspection

Guaranteed Results

For over four decades, we have served as the region’s premier authority on wildlife-structure interactions. Our deep local roots mean we understand the specific behavioral patterns of our area’s native species.

We are not just technicians; we are your neighbors backed by 40 years of experience and a steadfast commitment to your peace of mind.

Animal Cleanup

Any material that has reached a saturation point of bio-contamination must be excised. This includes cardboard storage containers, personal effects, and structural components that cannot be effectively sanitized. We use HEPA-filtered vacuums to capture particulate matter, ensuring that bioaerosols—microscopic particles suspended in the air—are not circulated throughout your home during cleaning.

Disinfect & Deodorize 

We deploy industrial-grade antimicrobial and antifungal agents. These EPA-approved solutions neutralize zoonotic pathogens—diseases transmissible from animals to humans—on a molecular level, ensuring the surface is clinically clean.

Structural Repair

The hallmark of a permanent solution is exclusion. This involves using high-tensile steel mesh, heavy-duty flashing, and concrete sealants to reinforce every potential entry point. We don’t just fix the hole; we block re-entry.

Skunk control in Lake Norman, NC
Professional, easy to work with, reliable and knowledgeable. I had a skunk in my crawl space. Noah took time to explain the project and the process and offered photos. ~ I would recommend them and use them again if needed
Robert B.
Wildlife control in Charlotte, NC
We had an excellent experience with TruTech resolving a rodent problem in our attic. Zalen McFadden, TruTech technician, provided superior service on a recent very cold morning diagnosing the problem and spent a good deal of time reviewing every area of our home for entry points. He then sealed all of those points to prevent future access. We are very pleased with his work and methods of handling the situation. He is a professional who delivers beyond expectations.

I was very impressed with Thomas who did the evaluation and found evidence of mice. That freaked me out, so the tech, Jason, came the next day snd thoroughly fixed my home. I couldn’t be happier with the service n

Squrirel removal in Greenville, SC
All around positive experience. Thought I had squirrels and when there were none to be found after the repairs to the house were done, they even refunded for the cleanup portion since it wasn’t necessary. Very honest and reliable!
Loukas M.
Wildlife Removal in Orlando, FL
Heard scratching noises coming from the walls and I knew we had a problem. Called TruTech, spoke with Trevor. He came out, assessed the situation offered me the options. A day or two later, Jason and Luke came out, sealed up the compromised areas of my roof, laid traps and our families peace of mind was restored. James came a few times to check on the traps and even had to reseal after noticing a hole. Excellent service You have kept every promise you’ve made and you have provided great customer service at every step.
Fred F.Bird control in Seminole County, FL
Called TruTech wild life service after calling Seminole County wild life preserve, pest removal, pest control, animal services, and even the fire department to remove a bird that was trapped in the soffit under the gutters over my garage. The TruTech dispatcher gave a me a two-hour same-day service window and told me I would hear from Parker. Heard from Parker within minutes and he showed up in two hours and was amazing! He was determined to get the bird out of the soffit after chasing the bird through the maze of soffits from outside the house for an hour. After 4 different soffit openings and removals, the bird flew out. It was tired and injured…so we fed it. Now the little finch found a home on my front lawn. Thanks Parker! Thanks TruTech!
Polly T.
Raccoon Removal in Dallas
Trutech drove a raccoon out of my attic & sealed several openings shut. They cleaned up the droppings. They trapped an armadillo & her offsprings left. Then Trutech drove stakes in the ground beside my fence to shut off their passage. All their efforts have paid off because the wildlife has not returned.

I needed someone to come back out here and fix a new hole the squirrels were using to access it, and BOOM, Trutech did it right away. And they told me to hit them back up if any more holes crop up. Very appreciated!

Frequently Asked Questions

Animal exclusion is the process of sealing and securing a structure to prevent wildlife from entering. Trutech Wildlife Service focuses on identifying all potential entry points and reinforcing them with durable materials so animals can’t get back inside.
Trapping and removal address the animals currently inside, while exclusion prevents future infestations. Trutech Wildlife Service uses exclusion as a long-term solution, often pairing it with removal to fully resolve the problem.
Exclusion methods are effective for a wide range of nuisance wildlife, including squirrels, raccoons, rats, mice, bats, birds, and even larger animals like opossums. The strategy is tailored based on species behavior and entry habits.

Trutech Wildlife Service performs a detailed inspection to locate even small or hidden vulnerabilities. The most common exclusion points include:

  • Chimney – Adding chimney caps and screening can prevent animals from falling in or nesting

  • Plumbing Vents – Animals seeking shelter can become stuck in plumbing pipes

  • Roof & Fascia Spaces – Poorly sealed points between roof & fascia invite animal entry

  • Roof Vents – Lightweight, flimsy vents should be replaced with heavy secure roof vents

  • Oven & Bathroom Exhaust Vents – Adding screening to vents helps keep animals out

  • Roof/Soffit Intersection – Securing gaps will help prevent animal chewing and entry

  • Holes in Siding – Repairing & reinforcing holes will discourage animal infestation

  • Porch & Deck – Durable screening around base prevents nesting animals

  • Trees & Landscaping – Removal of overhanging tree limbs and encroaching vegetation

When done correctly, exclusion can be a long-lasting solution. However, homes naturally age and new vulnerabilities can develop. Trutech Wildlife Service may recommend periodic inspections to maintain protection over time.

The timeline depends on the size of the home, the number of entry points, and the species involved. Some projects can be completed in a single visit, while more complex situations may take several days.

Removing wildlife is only a temporary solution if you don’t fix and prevent why the animal ended up on your property in the first place.
