The most vital aspect
of any control effort.
Exclusion is what you do to keep rodents out. It is vital! We may not be able to get rid of your rodents without it.
They will always reinfest if it is not done and done properly. When they do come back - you will blame us.
There is never one rodent. Rodents can smell where other rodents have been - that smell says your home - is a great home for rodents- come on in.
Rodents chew on electrical wires and cause house fires. Rodents can carry diseases.
It can cost thousands of dollars to replace your insulation due to their feces.
Most contractors, pest control companies, and homeowners DO NOT use the proper materials to keep out rodents. You cannot use expanding foam, steel wool does not work in most areas, and rodents can squeeze through very small gaps.
Since rodents can chew through anything softer than metal - we use metal, metal and concrete.
