Harboring wildlife unintentionally
Your enjoyable home improvements may end up causing unexpected problems. Poorly designed structures harbor wildlife unintentionally. Decking is an all too common example. Open spaces underneath decking or inside accessible crawl spaces are favorite sheltering locations for wildlife. These hiding places serve as occasional daytime rest areas, and as regular daytime harborages, places where wildlife hide, den, or nest. When skunks move in, how do you keep your pets away? When a dog acting territorially is skunk sprayed, it immediately comes into your home and rubs itself all over everything; you, your furniture and carpet, your bedspread, your children. That’s a lot of really smelly business you have not planned for!

EWS offers help for clients at all stages: Pre-construction consulting, we offer guidance for building-in defenses against wildlife incursions. During construction, we work with your contractor to install barrier systems while your yard is already torn up. Post-construction problem solving, all too often our clients discover they have a problem only after the work is done, the turf is in, and the flowers and shrubs are planted. We offer low impact solutions using minimal excavations for clients not wanting to redo their landscape.
