We were recently contacted by a homeowner in Brampton, Ontario—just off Sandalwood Parkway near Torbram Road—who reported persistent scratching noises coming from their attic. Understandably concerned, they requested a full attic inspection to determine the source of the disturbance.
Upon arrival, our technician conducted a thorough exterior and interior assessment of the property. During the inspection, we discovered that a squirrel had chewed through one of the attic vents to gain entry. Squirrels are notorious for exploiting even small weaknesses in roofing or vent structures, especially during cooler months when they seek out warm, quiet spaces to shelter or build nests.
To address the issue humanely and effectively, we installed a one-way door over the damaged vent. This device allows the squirrel to leave the attic naturally but prevents it from re-entering. We further reinforced the area using heavy-duty galvanized wire mesh to ensure no future intrusions at that entry point. This type of exclusion strategy is not only humane but also highly reliable, avoiding the stress and complications associated with trapping or relocating wildlife.
Once we confirm the squirrel has exited and the attic is secure, we return to remove the one-way door and perform any necessary repairs to restore the vent and safeguard the home.
