Why Brookfield

Why Brookfield Homes Get Hit Harder Than Most

A suburb of this age has a specific list of failure points. Attached garages with worn door seals, soffit and fascia that has moved through forty Wisconsin winters, chimney flashing that has lifted, and attic insulation nobody has looked at since it was installed — these are the routes squirrels, bats and mice actually use.

The mature canopy delivers them. Branches that were clear of the roof when the houses were new now touch it, giving squirrels a direct crossing, and the leaf load in the gutters each autumn keeps the trim underneath wet enough to soften.

Common Questions

Brookfield Pest Questions, Answered

Something is running in the attic in daylight.
Daytime activity usually means squirrels rather than mice, and they came in at the soffit or a lifted flashing after crossing on a branch. Cut the branch contact first, make certain nothing is inside, then close the opening with metal rather than foam.
Bats in the attic.
They are protected and the timing matters: exclusion cannot be done while young are present, or they die inside the building. A one-way exclusion device fitted at the right time of year is the correct approach, and it is worth using someone who does this specific work.
Mice come in through the garage.
The bottom seal of an overhead door is the most common entry on a house of this age, especially at the two corners where it wears first. Replacing it is inexpensive and stops most of the traffic. Check the side seals at the same time, because a door that has dropped slightly leaves a gap down one edge that is easy to miss.
Wasps in the same soffit every summer.
Soffit voids are sheltered and dry, and they return to sites that have worked. Removing the nest is half the job; closing the gap it sat in is what stops next year. The old nest material should come out too, since the scent left behind is part of what draws the next queen to the same spot.
Gutters full of oak leaves each fall.
It matters beyond the water. Overflow soaks the fascia and the trim below it, and softened timber is what carpenter ants move into. A second clearing in late autumn is cheaper than the repair. Extending the downspouts away from the foundation is worth doing in the same visit, because water pooling at the wall causes its own set of problems.
