Damage the animals left

Did the visitors do any damage? Animals can tear at a flexible liner, chew insulation in a chase, bend a damper, pull mortar loose at the top of the flue or rip a cap screen trying to get in.

Once it's clear, the whole chimney gets inspected, and you'll hear what, if anything, needs repair. Every repair gets a written price, and the timing is yours. Small damage can be fixed on the same visit as the cap, which saves a second trip. Talk to one of our local pros about damage from animals in your chimney in Bronson: (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Keeping watch year to year

Once a chimney in Bronson is clear and capped, a yearly look catches a torn screen, a rusting chase cover or a loose clean-out door before an animal does. Our specialists check those parts on every visit and point out anything wearing. A torn screen is replaced on the spot where possible. The visit costs nothing when it's part of a sweep.

Our Process

What an animal call in Bronson involves

Find out what's there

Our pros inspect from the top and the firebox and check for protected birds and bats.
Time it to the rules

Work waits out any protected season, and exclusion is used where the rules allow it.
Clear and clean

Nests, droppings and debris come out safely, and the flue is swept once it's empty.
Cap and close the gaps

Every flue is capped and every other opening closed, so nothing moves back in.

One-way exclusion devices

Exclusion means letting animals leave on their own and not letting them back in. A one-way device fitted over the flue opening lets animals exit but blocks their return.

Florida's rule for bats sets conditions for using exclusion devices, including how long they stay in place before the opening is sealed for good. Our pros follow those conditions and only fit a device when the season allows it.

Once the device has done its job and the flue is confirmed empty, it's removed, the flue is cleaned and a screened cap goes on. The timing is written on your plan.

When something makes it past the damper

If an animal makes it past the damper into the fireplace or the room, close the fireplace doors or screen if you can, keep children and pets away, and don't try to handle it.

Bats need extra care. The CDC advises seeking medical advice after possible contact with a bat, since a bite can be too small to notice.

Only methods Florida's rules allow are used, your quote names who handles the animal, and then our pros find and close the way it got in, so the next one can't follow. They'll also check the damper, since an animal in the room points to a damper that was open or failed.

Keeping watch after the job

Once a chimney is clear and capped, a little attention keeps it that way. Cap screens can tear or rust, chase covers rust through and clean-out doors work loose over the years.

Any visit to the chimney, from a sweep to an inspection, includes a look at each of those, and you'll hear about anything wearing before it becomes an opening.

Listening for noises in spring, when chimney swifts return, is the easiest check of all. If you hear something, a quick call gets it looked at before a nest is established. A torn screen caught early is a quick fix.

FAQs

Ask us about animals in the chimney

Should I light a fire to drive them out?

No. A fire can kill protected birds or young bats, which is unlawful, and dry nesting material can catch fire. Our specialists use methods the rules allow.

Do you sweep the chimney afterward?

Yes, once the flue is empty. The sweep clears droppings, nest debris and soot, and it shows whether the animals damaged the liner.
