• The Problem: Skunks, groundhogs, and foxes love to dig under sheds, decks, and concrete pads.

• Our Service: We install a "curtain wall" or underground barrier. We dig a trench around the perimeter and install heavy-gauge hardware cloth that extends deep into the ground.

• The Result: Animals are physically blocked from burrowing under your structures, protecting your foundation and preventing nesting.

 

It's important to understand that some animals have a natural tendency to burrow. Unfortunately, this can lead to them choosing undesirable locations such as around your deck, foundation, driveway, or walkway.

 

Trenching is a humane and effective method to prevent animals from burrowing around your property. Vinyl-coated mesh can be buried deep into the ground around the problematic area to deter animals from further burrowing.

 

This method can also be employed to protect outdoor gardens from unwanted pests.

 

Some typical animals that may require trenching include, but are not limited to, chipmunks, moles, groundhogs, rats, etc.
