Klaus Larsen LLC Case Studies: Keeping the Bee's Outside a Roofing System in Baltic, CT
Challenge
The time had come for the roof to be replaced on this Baltic, CT house, as thousands of bee's were entering the attic. This is a sure fire indicator that something is amiss with your roofing system. We at Klaus Larsen are definitely pro-bee, but we prefer them residing outside the house. If pests are entering your home, it is likely they are finding a way in through an improperly sealed vent.
Solution
We first had to re-box their entry area in with composite in order to keep these uninvited guests out for good. We also used special flashing material to match the color of the home, so that everything would look uniform. Extensive deck protection and ventilation was incorporated, including solar powered Fresh Air Deck mounts, and a VentSure ridge vent under True Def Duration Estate Gray shingles. Now air will pass through the roof, without the addition of bee's.
