Rodents and various wildlife pose ongoing challenges for homeowners. Beyond the health risks they bring and the damage they can inflict on property, having these unwanted visitors is never welcome. What makes them especially troublesome is how difficult they can be to eliminate once they’ve settled in. That’s where exclusion techniques become invaluable; by stopping pests from entering your residence from the outset, you save yourself significant headaches down the line.
At Ja-Roy, our team employs advanced strategies, including the innovative Flexi Armour system, to safeguard your home against rodents and wildlife. Continue reading to discover how we approach pest exclusion!
Understanding Pest Exclusion: What It Entails
In essence, pest exclusion involves identifying and sealing all entry points, cracks, gaps, and holes that pests could exploit to gain access to your home. Simply trapping and relocating animals offers a temporary fix; without addressing how they’re getting inside, the problem is likely to return.
Here’s an overview of how Ja-Roy executes our exclusion process:
- Inspection. We begin with a complimentary assessment to pinpoint vulnerabilities.
- Customized Planning. Next, we design a strategy specifically tailored to your property’s unique needs.
- Humane Removal. We then carefully and ethically remove any wildlife present on your premises.
- Securing Entry Points. Finally, we reinforce your home’s defenses by sealing openings using Flexi Armour and other durable exclusion materials.
Tailored Exclusion Approaches by Ja-Roy
Many homeowners are surprised by just how many potential entry points their houses have. For instance, rodents such as mice and rats can enter through any gap large enough for their heads. Addressing these tiny openings is an effective, affordable, and straightforward way to deter unwanted wildlife. Some of the exclusion solutions we implement include:
- Installing door sweeps.
- Applying weather stripping.
- Sealing cracks and holes with specialized sealants.
- Fitting protective covers over exterior vents.
- Screening window weep holes.
- Adding caps to exposed plumbing pipes.
- Installing chimney caps.
Why Choose Rodent and Wildlife Exclusion?
Using exclusion techniques offers a range of advantages when it comes to protecting your home from pests:
- Fully blocks access routes for rodents and other wildlife.
- Eco-conscious alternative with little to no reliance on chemicals.
- Utilizes long-lasting materials designed for durability.
- Built to endure even the harshest weather conditions.
- Provides protection against multiple pest species simultaneously.
Recognizing the Warning Signs of Rodent Infestation
Rodents are notoriously prolific, making early detection critical. Spotting one mouse or rat often indicates many more hidden nearby. Keep an eye out for these common indicators:
- Droppings. Clear evidence of rodent presence.
- Gnaw Marks. Rodents constantly chew to maintain their teeth, damaging anything from wiring to drywall.
- Nests. Look for piles of shredded materials like cloth, paper, or cardboard in secluded areas such as attics or closets.
- Scratching Sounds. Rodents are mostly nocturnal but can be heard moving inside walls at night.
- Direct Sightings. Seeing a rodent usually means you have an infestation.
