Legal and seasonal constraints on the work

Wildlife work is constrained in ways insect work is not. Several species are protected, some are regulated as furbearers with defined seasons, and bats in particular cannot lawfully be excluded while a maternity colony is present. There is also a practical constraint that catches people out: seal an entry hole in spring and you may have sealed dependent young inside, which becomes a far worse problem than the one you started with.

Seasonal timing for wildlife exclusion work
AnimalWhen young are typically dependentWhat this means for exclusion
Raccoon Spring into early summer Do not seal until young are mobile; entry must be confirmed clear first
Grey and fox squirrel Two breeding periods, late winter and mid-summer Check the void before closing; one-way doors used where appropriate
Bats Summer maternity season Exclusion must wait until the maternity period has ended. Bats are protected and must never be trapped or harmed
Opossum Spring through summer Usually transient; confirm the animal has left before sealing
Birds in vents and soffits Nesting season, spring into summer Active nests of protected species must be left; screen after fledging
Skunk Spring Denning under structures; exclusion after young are mobile, with care over spraying
