Rodent Exclusion
Complete rodent proofing and removal services. We seal entry points effectively and stop the cycle.
Every rodents job, the same standard
No upsells, no surprise fees. Every job runs to the same scope.
Structural inspection
We inspect the foundation, rim joist, vents, utility penetrations, and roofline for every gap a mouse can fit through.
Permanent seal
Steel mesh, mortar, foam, and exclusion-grade materials. Mice and rats can chew through standard foam, so we use the right product for each gap.
Trapping
We trap the existing population with snap and multi-catch traps placed where rodents actually travel.
Cleanup and decontamination
Rodent urine and droppings are a respiratory health risk. We clean and decontaminate affected spaces with HEPA equipment.
What to expect
Mice and rats find pencil-sized gaps in foundations, around dryer vents, behind kitchen appliances, and at the rim joist. Once inside they breed fast and chew everything including wiring, framing, and stored items. Trapping alone does not fix the problem. We do a full structural inspection, seal every gap with rodent-proof materials, trap the active population, and clean up droppings and urine. Without sealing, every rodent removed is replaced.
Common questions about rodent exclusion
How small a gap can a mouse fit through?
A house mouse can fit through a gap the diameter of a pencil. Norway rats need about a quarter inch. That is why surface-level pest sprays don't fix a rodent problem - the rodents come back through the same gaps.
Why isn't trapping enough?
Trapping removes the active rodents but does nothing about the entry points. New rodents find the same gaps and the cycle restarts. We seal first, trap second.
Are rodent droppings dangerous?
Yes. Mouse urine and droppings can carry hantavirus, salmonella, and other pathogens. We clean and decontaminate with HEPA-filtered equipment and full PPE.
How long does the work take?
Most homes can be sealed in a single visit. Trapping runs over 1-3 follow-ups depending on how established the population is.
