When Wildlife Moves In
Minnesota is a beautiful place, no doubt about it. But with the lakes, rivers, prairie fields, and harsh seasonal swings comes a constant fight to keep nature from claiming your home or business. When squirrels, raccoons, and mice cross that threshold, it's not just about prevention anymore... it's about taking decisive action to correct the problem and lock them out for good.
Common Wildlife Pests in Minnesota
In Minnesota, there are a variety of wildlife pests that can invade homes and businesses. Some of Minnesota's most common wild pests include raccoons, skunks, squirrels, and chipmunks. These pests can cause significant property damage and can also be a threat to human health and safety.

What Attracts Wildlife To Minnesota Homes?
There are a variety of things that can attract wildlife pests to Minnesota homes, including garbage, pet food, bird feeders, and other wildlife. Unfortunately, wildlife pests are opportunistic animals and take advantage of any opportunity to get into a home or business. That is why it is important to take measures to prevent wildlife pests from entering your property.
How To Prevent Wildlife From Entering Your Home Or Business
There are several things you can do to prevent wildlife from entering your home or business, including:
- Securing garbage cans with lids
- Keeping pet food inside
- Removing bird feeders
- Sealing off entry points into your home or building
If you are already dealing with a wildlife pest problem, the best course of action is to contact a professional wildlife removal company. A wildlife removal company will be able to safely and humanely remove the wildlife pests from your property and also take steps to prevent them from returning in the future.

Exclusion: The Cure for Invasion
Forget quick fixes. Traps and baits can slow the problem, but exclusion tackles it at the root. Wildlife exclusion is about:
- Identifying every possible breach, from dime-sized holes to warped flashing
- Reinforcing the structure itself by sealing, screening, and armoring against future intrusion
- Correcting the damage already done so you're not stuck in an endless loop of patch jobs and pest returns
In Minnesota's tough climate, exclusion isn't optional. It's necessary to reclaim your property and keep wildlife where it belongs, outside.
Our landscape practically invites wildlife in, with a mix of natural features and shifting weather patterns that create ideal conditions for intrusion:
- Spring rains and freeze-thaw cycles shift foundations, flex trusses, and open gaps.
- Harsh winters force animals to search out shelter, seeking warmth, food, and water.
Our love for outdoor living, cabins, lake homes, and suburban expansion puts human spaces right next to animal habitats. Our large greenbelts, open meadows, and a lake or pond on every corner mean that people and wildlife will be together, no matter what. This mix creates a perfect storm for intrusion. And once wildlife gets in, it doesn't leave without a fight. Exclusion provides the final, effective solution.
The Valor Approach: Exclusion Done Right
Wildlife isn't playing games, and neither are we. Our approach to exclusion is thorough, strategic, and built to last:
Full-Scope Inspections
No corner goes unchecked. We scale roofs, dive into attics, and get hands-on with every potential entry point. If nature found a way in, we'll find it too.
High-Grade Materials: Forget flimsy foam and temporary patches.
Garage and Door Sweep Exclusion: Sealing One of the Biggest Gaps
One of the most overlooked entry points in any structure is the gap under garage doors and exterior doors. Rodents and insects view these areas as wide open doors—especially in older homes or during the seasonal expansion and contraction of Minnesota's weather.
Locally Trusted Animal Trapper
Animal trapping is often the best course of action because it is a humane form of wildlife pest control. Wildlife pests can be safely and effectively removed using animal traps. Furthermore, wildlife pests can be prevented from returning to your property with exclusion and prevention services.
Stronger Barriers. Smarter Protection.
At Valor Pest Solutions, we go beyond the basic rubber flap. Our garage and door sweep exclusion protocol includes:
- Precision-fitted garage door bottom seals that block entry without impeding operation.
- Rodent-proof metal guards that reinforce the vulnerable corners and base of the door—both horizontally and vertically.
- Installation that matters—because even the best materials fail if installed incorrectly. That's why our team is trained, licensed, and certified in professional exclusion techniques.
Xcluder® Protection, Professionally Installed
We exclusively use Xcluder® Rodent-Proof Door Sweeps and Seals, which feature:
- A durable, stainless-steel mesh embedded in a heavy-duty rubber seal
- Lifetime backing from Xcluder® when installed by certified professionals like us
- Protection from gnawing, chewing, and weather degradation
As long as the sweep is installed correctly—and it will be when you hire us—you'll gain long-term protection with no shortcuts. Rodents don't get to squeeze through the bottom of your door anymore. Not on our watch.
Wildlife Solutions That Think Ahead
Behavior-Based Solutions
Wildlife exclusion isn't just about blocking holes, it's about understanding how pests think and move. We reinforce the right spots and anticipate future attempts, keeping your home rodent and wildlife free even after we're gone.
Moisture and Weather Resilience
Our materials flex and move with the seasons, ensuring your defenses stay tight and effective through rain, snow, and deep freezes. This is a common failure point with most pest companies who also "handle" wildlife. Oftentimes, the knowledge is lacking and the materials just don't do the job.
Repairs with Purpose
When wildlife has done damage, chewed soffits, clawed vents, ripped insulation, we don't just cover it up. We restore and reinforce those areas to stop the cycle.

It’s Not Just Prevention. It’s Restoration:
A lot of companies treat exclusion as an upsell or a band-aid fix. At Valor, we see it for what it really is: the only true, lasting solution for rodent and wildlife intrusion. Whether you're a homeowner or a business managing a commercial space, exclusion is an investment in your peace of mind, your property's integrity, and your bottom line.
Wildlife won't wait for an invitation. If you're seeing signs like droppings, noises in the walls, damage around your roofline, or bumps in the night, the time to act is now. The longer you wait, the more damage they'll cause and the most established they become.
Let's Seal the Deal: At Valor Pest Solutions, we'll help you correct the problem and lock it down. Call us to schedule a comprehensive inspection and let us show you how exclusion can restore your space and your sanity. We've been at this for 15+ years, and we're ready to bring that expertise to your front door.
