Rodent Proofing

Rodent proofing is the work that makes the problem stay solved. We inspect from foundation to roofline, then seal gaps with steel mesh, sealant and metal flashing, because rodents chew through soft materials like foam and plastic.

Questions

Common questions

Why not use foam to fill holes?

Rodents chew through foam and plastic. Steel mesh, metal flashing and hard sealants hold up where soft materials fail.

When is the best time to seal a home?

Before cold weather is ideal, but any time is better than waiting. Sealing after a removal keeps the problem from returning.
