Ekskludering av gnagere
The necessity for rodent exclusion stems from a clear and urgent rationale. Whether it concerns your residence, commercial establishment, or any building, rodents gain entry through some form of opening or breach. Without these access points, the risk of infestation, the potential for electrical fires due to their gnawing habits, or the threat to health would significantly diminish.
Our Imperial Pest Prevention YouTube video reveals how rodents can infiltrate your living spaces, including
attics and crawlspaces. Implementing measures to seal these entry points is critical in safeguarding your property, health, and the well-being of your family.

What is a Rodent Exclusion?
Rodent exclusion is a preventive pest control method focused on keeping rodents out of a structure by identifying and sealing all potential entry points they could use to gain access. This approach is detailed and methodical and considers rodents' behavior and physical capabilities, particularly their ability to squeeze through tiny gaps and climb various surfaces. Here’s a detailed look at what rodent exclusion involves:
Identification of Entry Points
The first step in rodent exclusion is a thorough inspection of the property. Professionals look for any openings that could serve as gateways for rodents, no matter how small. Common entry points include gaps around doors and windows, holes where pipes and electrical wires enter buildings, foundation cracks, and spaces around roof vents and chimneys.
Sealing and Repairing Gaps
Once potential entry points are identified, the next step is to seal these openings with rodent-proof materials. Different materials may be used depending on the size of the gap and its location, including:
-
Steel wool or wire mesh for larger gaps, as rodents cannot chew through these materials.
-
Caulk and foam sealants for smaller cracks and crevices in walls and around windows and doors.
-
Metal flashing to reinforce areas around the structure's base or the roofline where rodents might gain access.
Installing Barriers
In some cases, physical barriers may be installed to prevent rodent access. This can include chimney caps to block entry from above or grates over drains and vents. The goal is to create a physical blockade that rodents cannot bypass.
Landscaping and Sanitation
Rodent exclusion also involves modifying the environment around the structure to make it less attractive to rodents. This may include trimming back trees and bushes that touch the building, removing debris and clutter that could provide shelter for rodents, and ensuring trash is properly contained and disposed of.
Monitoring and Maintenance
After the initial exclusion work is done, ongoing monitoring is essential to ensure the measures' effectiveness and identify any new potential entry points. Regular inspections allow for timely repairs and adjustments as needed.
The Benefits of Rodent Exclusion
Rodent exclusion offers several benefits over other control methods, such as baiting and trapping. It is a long-term solution that addresses the root cause of rodent infestations rather than just the symptoms. By preventing rodents from entering in the first place, it reduces the likelihood of damage to property, eliminates health risks associated with rodent droppings and urine, and minimizes the need for chemical rodenticides.

Hvordan forberede seg på en ekskludering av gnagere
Alle søppelhauger, løst søppel rundt huset og søppel må fjernes og elimineres.
Alle søppelkasser, søppelbeholdere og søppelbeholdere må ha tettsittende lokk som brukes for å hindre at søppelet blir utsatt.
Busker og trær må vedlikeholdes ordentlig og trimmes fra å berøre strukturen eller taket på et hjem.
Lagret tømmer og ved skal være minst 25 meter fra strukturen og fra bakken.
Fôrmatere og mat til kjæledyr må ikke lagres ute.
Hvis hjemmet ditt har for store mengder lagrede gjenstander rundt utsiden, skur som ikke er under de største forholdene med et stort lagringsplass i seg, låver, frittliggende garasjer osv., Er det også viktig at disse stedene får en god vårrengjøring også.
