How to Deter Wildlife

Discovering wildlife in your home or business can be very distressing due to the potential damage it can cause to your property and well-being. However there are a few tips you can use to keep these unwelcome visitors away.

• Ensure rubbish bins have securely fitted lids to stop wildlife feeding from contents.

• Keep gardens clear from debris as this may provide bedding for wildlife to nest. If you have compost heap don’t include organic food waste, as this will attract them.

• Ensure drains are kept clean and free of debris to reduce the chances of insects such as mosquitoes laying eggs which will, in turn, attract foraging wildlife.

• Seal areas such as gaps or cracks around doors and window frames to reduce wildlife access into your property.
