Rodent Proofing
Tips On Rodent Proofing Your Home
Rodent infestation can be quite daunting for any household. They can be a nuisance and embarrass you, especially when you have guests over. They can also cause damage to the home and even spread disease, which will not be great for you. Baiting and trapping rodents can be overwhelming, as you will do it all year round, with no change. This is where rodent proofing comes in. It is the most effective and humane way of solving the rodent infestation situation in your home. So, how do you do it? Read on;
One of the first things to do is to remove attractants. Since rodents are attracted to places with abundant food and shelter, it is advised to remove these attractants. Trim any plantings around the house, eliminate some plants if need be, and remove any debris lying around. If they are already in the house, minimize attractants by keeping food inside containers and secure cupboards or fridges. Also, if you have pet food, store them where rodents cannot access them.
The second step is to locate the entry points to the home. Inspect the house for any gaps and open vents that mice can enter the home through. Also, check where pipes come through drywall and look for rodent droppings and any signs of gnawed wood.
Close off all the entry points identified to rodent-proof your home. You can also use rodent exclusion materials such as a metal mesh to put around pipes, heavy-gauge wire screening to cover holes, and foam sealant. You can also install door sweeps to prevent access through the spaces underneath your doors. However, it is crucial to note that rodents have gnawing teeth that can chew through almost everything; hence, they can chew through the metal. Therefore, always check for signs of any renewed activity and repair it as soon as possible.
Rodent proofing is crucial to eliminate them from your home. With the above tips, you will be able to eliminate conditions that can invite rodent infestations and prevent them from coming to your home.
