Hole in a brick wall patched to keep pests out.

For homeowners, unwanted rodents and wildlife are a persistent challenge. Beyond the health risks they pose and the damage they can inflict on property, these intruders are notoriously difficult to evict once they settle in. This is why exclusion techniques are such a vital component of pest controlโ€”they stop the problem before it even begins by blocking access points and keeping animals outside where they belong.

At Bug Out, we employ a variety of proven methods to protect your home from these unwelcome visitors, including our innovative Flexi Armour system. Continue reading to discover how our comprehensive exclusion process safeguards your living space.

Understanding Pest Exclusion

In essence, pest exclusion involves identifying and sealing entry points like cracks, crevices, and holes in your homeโ€™s exterior to prevent rodents and wildlife from gaining access. Relying solely on trapping or relocation often falls short because as long as entryways remain open, animals will persistently try to come inside.

Our exclusion process at Bug Out typically follows these steps:

  • Thorough Inspection:ย We begin with a complimentary evaluation to locate all potential access points.
  • Customized Planning:ย Based on the inspection, we develop a targeted strategy tailored to your homeโ€™s unique vulnerabilities.
  • Humane Removal:ย Next, we safely and ethically remove any wildlife currently inhabiting your property.
  • Sealing and Protection:ย Finally, we reinforce your homeโ€™s defenses using Flexi Armour and other exclusion materials to keep pests out for good.

Bug Outโ€™s Comprehensive Exclusion Techniques

Many homeowners are surprised by how many small openings rodents and wildlife can exploit. Since mice and rats can slip through any hole slightly larger than their heads, sealing even the tiniest gaps is a cost-effective and highly efficient way to prevent infestations. Some of the key exclusion solutions we provide include:

  • Installing door sweeps to block gaps beneath exterior doors
  • Adding weather stripping to windows and doors for tighter seals
  • Applying sealants to close off cracks and holes
  • Covering exterior vents to deny entry points
  • Screening window weep holes to stop small animals
  • Fitting plumbing pipe caps to block access
  • Securing chimney caps to prevent wildlife entry

Advantages of Rodent and Wildlife Exclusion

Exclusion offers a robust and sustainable way to keep your home free from rodents and other nuisance animals. Here are several benefits of this approach:

  • Effective prevention by closing off all access points
  • Environmentally friendly with minimal use of chemicals or poisons
  • Durable materials provide long-term protection
  • Designed to withstand extreme weather conditions
  • Offers broad-spectrum defense against a variety of pests simultaneously

How to Identify Signs of a Rodent Problem

Rodents reproduce quickly and are some of the most challenging pests to manage. Early detection is crucial because spotting one mouse or rat often means many more are nearby. Keep an eye out for these typical indicators of infestation:

  • Droppings:ย Clear evidence that rodents are present.
  • Gnawed Surfaces:ย Rodents constantly chew to keep their teeth from overgrowing; they target everything from wiring to drywall.
  • Nests Material:ย Look for collections of shredded materials like paper, fabric, or cardboard tucked away in quiet, undisturbed spaces like attics or closets.
  • Scratching Sounds:ย Noises from inside walls, especially at night, can reveal rodent activity.
  • Visual Sightings:ย Spotting a rodent signals a likely larger population.
