Exclusion term in bat removal and wildlife control
What is Vent Screening?
Installing wire mesh or screens over roof vents, gable vents, and other ventilation openings to prevent bat entry.
Vent screening involves installing wire mesh or screens over roof vents, gable vents, ridge vents, and other ventilation openings to prevent bat entry. Screens must be small enough to exclude bats (typically 1/4-inch or smaller mesh) but large enough to maintain proper airflow. Professional vent screening uses corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or aluminum and ensures the screening does not create moisture problems or reduce ventilation efficiency.
