Prevent Mice & Other Rodents From Entering Your Home

Traditional rodent control methods such as traps, securing trash can lids, and cleaning the kitchen might not stop mice and rats from entering your home. Homeowners need wildlife exclusion to secure potential points of entry rodents might use to get into the house. This seal-up process helps to prevent future infestations.

Rather than using repellents that use smell or sound, rodent exclusion methods are physical barriers that prevent pests from entering the home and should be installed by professional pest and wildlife management technicians.

How Mice Keep Getting in Your House

Mice and rats hide in walls, ceilings, floors, or attics. It is typical to hear noises like scratching, squeaking, and scampering coming from these areas.

Rodents can squeeze through holes and vents as big as their skulls. Any cracks or openings in basements, garages, and the first floor of a home is an open invitation for critters to keep coming back. Mice and rats can also climb up gutters and enter through the chimney, openings for utility lines, or damaged fascia. Homes are vulnerable to rodents from almost every angle.

Finding The Right Wildlife Exclusion Products for Your Needs

Once you know you have unwanted wildlife in your home, you know you have a problem. That’s where the techniques of professional wildlife exclusion come in. Exclusion products from Catseye Pest Control are tailored to fix the issues on the exterior of the home.

Attic & Roof Barriers

From the first-floor windows to the peak of the roof, wildlife exclusion systems shield your home from rodents, bats, and other nuisance wildlife that may find their way inside through the upper-part of the structure.

Technicians will replace and/or seal soffit and fascia with high-performance metal while also sealing ridge vents and any other gaps that could act as entry points to the first floor and the top of the home.

Foundation & Window Barriers

From the first-floor windows down to the foundation, these exclusion products ensure there are no openings for critters to make their way into your home or other structure.

Technicians use premium materials to seal-up the entire area where the home meets the foundation. Any visible holes are filled in, including holes in the foundation, gaps in siding, J-channel, and window trim, as well as corner posts.

This process ensures there isn’t a way for wildlife to get into the lower half of the home, especially when paired with trench barriers.
