Fascia
Structure term in bat removal and wildlife control
What is Fascia?
The horizontal board that runs along the edge of a roof, often a common bat entry point due to gaps and settling.
The fascia is the horizontal board that runs along the edge of a roof, typically covering the ends of rafters. Fascia boards are common bat entry points due to gaps that develop from settling, weather exposure, and construction. Bats can squeeze behind fascia boards or enter through gaps where fascia meets roof sheathing. Fascia sealing is an important part of comprehensive bat-proofing, especially on older homes where fascia may have deteriorated or warped over time.
