No you cannot deduct these on your tax return. Repairs and improvements to your own home are not deductible. Certain expenses like the new roof and maybe the insulation may add to your cost basis for when you sell the home, so save your records and use the expenses then. Cleaning out "vermin" cannot be claimed at all.
