Custom Animal-Proof Barriers in maryland
Wildlife getting into your home isn't just inconvenient; it's a health and property risk. Droppings, nesting materials, and torn insulation can all cause contamination and costly repairs.
At Nature Shield, we install custom wildlife barriers in Maryland that stop animals from re-entering once removal is complete. Every system is built from chew-proof materials and designed for long-term prevention solutions that hold up to Maryland's mixed weather and soil.
If you see damage, droppings, or new digging around your home, schedule your free inspection today. It only takes one visit to find entry points and protect your home from harm.
Wildlife Exclusion Fencing
There's a reason fencing comes in first in most wildlife jobs - digging is what gets you every time. Our crew trenches along the base of sheds, decks, and foundations, laying down galvanized hardware cloth that animals can't claw through. Skunks, raccoons, groundhogs - they try once and then move on.
Each run of fencing is fitted by hand, edges tucked and fixed tight with corrosion-resistant fasteners built to withstand Maryland's damp winters and humid summers. Once the soil's back in place, you barely see it - but it keeps the digging where it belongs: outside your walls.
Deck and Shed Barriers
Those quiet gaps under decks and sheds? Perfect shelter for nesting. That's where deck and shed barriers come in - coated mesh that lets air flow but stops anything with claws.
Panels are usually cut to size on site and pinned close against the structure. No gaps, no loose edges. Homeowners usually notice the change within a week - the scratching stops, the smell goes away, and peace returns.
Crawl Space Skirts and Foundation Protection
Crawl spaces are a magnet for wildlife. Warm, dark, full of insulation - ideal if you're a squirrel or a raccoon. Once they're in, they chew wiring, shred vapor barriers, and leave contamination that lingers.
Our crawl space skirts seal off those gaps completely. The materials flex with the seasons but won't split or warp, creating a barrier that breathes while keeping animals out. Simple, solid protection for the part of your home most people forget about.
Trenching and Hardware Cloth
For burrowing animals, we use a trench-and-bury method with hardware barrier cloths. The mesh runs below ground and folds outwards at the base, stopping the digging at the source. It's an invisible underground wall that protects gardens, foundations, and sheds.
Long-term prevention solutions like this are humane, low-maintenance, and built to last - a simple way to end the cycle of repeat infestations without harming wildlife.
Inspection and Installation Process
Every job starts the same way-with a crawl around the property. We look for claw marks, dug edges, loose vents, and gnawed boards. Photos are taken, a plan is drawn up, and materials are cut on site, so there's no guesswork later.
Installation usually happens within a day or two. Our technicians dig, fit, and seal every joint before backfilling. You get updates as each section is finished, along with simple tips or upkeep, too.
Book your free inspection today - one walkthrough today could stop months of repeated damage.
Humane Design and Professional Care
Every barrier we build protects your home while preventing harm to wildlife. By closing access points, we stop future trapping or making it more valuable before it's needed. It's a lasting fix that protects your structure, your insulation, and your peace of mind.

Our service begins with a free inspection. We arrange a convenient time to visit your Maryland property and look for gaps, weak spots, and access routes animals are using around foundations, decks, sheds, porches, vents, and rooflines.
Tailored Barrier Design Plan
After the inspection, we provide you with a tailored plan that explains where barriers are needed, what materials we recommend, and how they will be installed. This no-obligation plan is built around your property’s layout, the species you’re dealing with, and your budget so you know exactly what we suggest and why.
