North Bellingham
Two doors, two problems: the crawl space vents that let everybody in
One crawl space vent had a torn screen. The one next to it had no screen at all. Skunks, rats, opossums and raccoons were all using them. Here's what to check at your house.
Puget, Bellingham
Squirrels chewed a door into the attic. We installed a screen door.
Little round attic vents are prime real estate for birds and squirrels. This Puget-neighborhood vent had squirrels. Here's the before, plus a simple, effective fix with a bit of screening.
Downtown Bellingham
Downtown Bellingham's busiest wildlife highway (and the deer who ignored the roadblock)
A narrow gap between two downtown buildings turned out to be a wildlife expressway. We blocked the whole thing with traps. A deer stopped by, said hi and hopped right over.
Why Bellingham homes get pests
- Older homes with crawlspaces and attics that rodents love
- Wooded greenbelts and creeks that bring raccoons and squirrels close to houses
- Wet weather that draws carpenter and moisture ants into damp wood
