The walls and foundation of your home or business are vital to its structural integrity—but they’re not immune to damage from wildlife and pests. At Critter Bro, we bring over 50 years of experience protecting properties across Western Nevada from threats like rodents, raccoons, skunks, and more. 

Whether you’re facing chewed beams, ruined insulation, or tunneling under concrete, our humane, eco-friendly solutions are designed to keep your structure safe, sturdy, and pest-free. We go beyond removal—repairing damage and implementing preventative measures to stop future intrusions.

Common Nuisance Animals that Damage Walls and Concrete Foundations

Rodents are notorious for exploiting small gaps and causing big problems.

• Chew through wooden beams, weakening structural integrity

• Gnaw on foundation insulation, reducing energy efficiency

• Create entry holes that allow other pests to enter

Though often associated with attics, squirrels can be just as destructive in walls and foundations.

• Gnaw through wooden framing, causing structural damage

• Dig into foundation insulation for nesting

• Weaken structural beams by constant chewing

Raccoons are strong, persistent animals that force their way into walls and voids.

• Tear into walls to gain access to nesting areas

• Rip apart insulation, reducing thermal efficiency

• Scratch and chew through wooden supports, weakening the structure

Bats can quietly roost inside wall cavities and go unnoticed for long periods.

• Roost in wall cavities, leading to hazardous guano buildup

• Leave urine and feces stains that cause structural decay

• Squeeze through small cracks, enlarging openings over time

Opossums seek dark, hidden spaces like wall voids and crawlspaces.

• Tear into drywall and insulation to create nests

• Leave droppings that contaminate walls and insulation

• Scratch and claw at wooden structures, causing damage

Skunks don’t just smell bad—they can cause serious foundational issues.

• Dig burrows under foundations, leading to cracking and instability

• Release strong odors that absorb into walls and insulation

• Tunnel under concrete slabs, weakening structural integrity

Small but destructive, carpenter ants hollow out structural wood from the inside.

• Tunnel through damp wood, creating hollowed-out beams

• Weaken wooden wall supports, leading to potential collapse

• Leave behind frass (sawdust), signaling infestation

These burrowers can compromise the very ground your home is built on.

• Dig large burrows under foundations, causing structural weakening

• Gnaw on wooden structures, leading to long-term damage

• Undermine concrete slabs, leading to cracks and shifting

Don’t wait until foundation damage becomes irreversible.

Nick was kind and responsive. He helped me with pigeon exclusion services. The first time he installed the exclusion , two pigeon nests with young pigeons were left behind (by accident) and he returned to make sure the pigeons were safely removed and redid the service. Due to having to come multiple times he also did a quick pressure wash of the front and side walkway where there was a lot of pigeon droppings. Great customer service ! Thank you.

I reviewed several websites of pest control firms to eradicate my home’s roof of nesting pigeons and to barricade future access to the space under my solar panels. The Critter Brothers website showed a wire mesh fencing product which i thought would work better than the plastic or metal spikes shown on other websites. Nick called me right back when i called to inquire and provided me a quote within a day. The work was scheduled within a week and was completed over parts of 2 days. Nick was responsive and personable and answered all my questions. He provided me photos of the work for my files. Thank you so much.
