Eco Friendly Ways to Rodent Proof your Home in Portland

[00:00:00] Portland is known for its mild climate and lush vegetation, but unfortunately, this attracts unwelcome guests in the form of rodents. Rodent exclusion is a method of pest control that works to keep rodents from entering a structure. Mice and rats are two of the most common pests, and their presence can cause numerous problems. To tackle a rodent infestation, it's essential to first figure out how and where these pests are entering your home. Sealing gaps and cracks, installing weather stripping and screening vents and chimneys are effective ways to rodent proof your home. Understanding how rats think, their scavenging behavior, and their need for shelter is crucial in rodent management. Exterior and interior exclusion strategies, such as caulk and wire mesh, can help rodent proof your home. Ongoing maintenance, including trap placement and non toxic monitoring, is important to keep rodents away. For more information about our services, contact us now at 503-303-8303.
