It is best to check on your vent screens as often as possible, and even more-so during seasons of high animal activity. One of the biggest mistakes is improper installation. When your attic\u2019s vent screens are not placed properly, they will fail to do their job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always try to install vent screens on the outside of the vent. If you choose to install them on the inside, small nuisance animals, like bats and birds, can still use the purgatory space between the screen and the vent as a place to nest.&nbsp; Although screening on the exterior of a home is not ideal for homeowners that take pride in the aesthetics of their home, there are other screening options that are more stylish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not live near wooded or forested areas, you could probably get away with installing your vent screens on the inside, but it is best to discuss this with a licensed wildlife control technician for professional advice regarding your property\u2019s unique attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>Recommended Attic Vent Screens on the Market<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">\u2776 VentGuard Wildlife Exclusion Screen \u2013 11\u201d x 11\u201d Galvanized Black $40<br>\u2777 Kwick Mesh Utility Screen Roll \u2013 12\u201d x 20ft. $40<br>\u2778 VentGuard HY-C Soffit Screens \u2013 4\u201d x 16\u201d Various Colors $40<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can purchase these products online through an internet retailer or at your local home improvement store.
