Grosse Pointe Woods
Homes in Grosse Pointe Woods are often surrounded by mature trees and feature established construction styles with detailed rooflines, attic vents, and soffits. While these elements add character, they also create common access points for wildlife.
Small gaps along roof edges, vent openings, and aging materials can allow animals to enter unnoticed. Once inside, removal alone is not enough - the structure must be properly sealed and reinforced to prevent repeat intrusion.
For over 22 years, Ancon has provided professional wildlife removal and exclusion services focused on long-term protection - not temporary fixes.
Bat Removal
Quiet Entry. Active Colonies. Regulated Removal.
Bats frequently enter through small gaps along rooflines and attic vents, often going undetected until activity increases. Homes in established neighborhoods with nearby tree coverage and consistent insect activity create ideal roosting conditions.
During maternity season, removal must be handled carefully and in accordance with Michigan regulations.
Our bat removal process includes:
- Detailed inspection of rooflines, vents, and attic spaces
- Identification of all entry points (not just the visible ones)
- Installation of one-way exclusion devices
- Permanent sealing and reinforcement after colony exit
Bat exclusion requires precision, timing, and a full-structure approach.
Squirrel Removal
Active Breeding. Aggressive Entry. Repeat Risk.
Squirrels are a common issue in areas with mature trees close to homes. They will actively chew through fascia boards, soffits, and vents to gain access to attic spaces - especially during breeding seasons.
Once inside, they can quickly cause damage and establish nests.
Common indicators include:
- Scratching or movement in the attic
- Chewed roof edges or trim
- Insulation disturbance
- Repeated noise patterns in the morning or evening
Our squirrel removal services focus on:
- Identifying the primary entry point
- Safe and humane removal
- Reinforcing all vulnerable areas
- Closing secondary gaps before future intrusion
Without proper exclusion, squirrels often return.
Additional Wildlife Services
Beyond bats and squirrels, we also handle:
- Raccoons entering attics through rooflines or soffits
- Skunks denning under decks, porches, and structures
- Mice and rodents in attics, crawl spaces, and wall voids
- Bird intrusion issues in vents and openings
- Groundhogs impacting foundations and exterior structures
Each situation is approached based on species behavior, access patterns, and structural conditions.
