RODENT CONTROL • PEST EXCLUSION • HOME PROTECTION

Rodent control that focuses on how they get in.

The Proofing Company specializes in construction-based rodent control and exclusion. We identify and seal accessible entry points that allow rats and mice into the home, helping address the source of the problem rather than relying only on ongoing pest treatments.

Rodent control through structural exclusion

Our team inspects accessible areas of the home to identify signs of activity and the openings rodents may be using. We then develop a proofing plan based on the actual conditions found at the property.

Common areas we evaluate

  • Roof coves, eaves and roofline transitions
  • Crawlspace vents and access openings
  • Pipes, utility lines and air-conditioning penetrations
  • Siding, foundation and construction gaps
  • Garage and exterior transitions when included in scope
  • Other accessible openings identified during inspection

Why homeowners searching for pest control may need proofing

Many homeowners first search for pest control because they are hearing scratching, finding droppings, or seeing signs of rats or mice. Removing the rodents is important, but if the structural access points are still open, the same problem can return.

Our approach

  • Inspect before recommending work
  • Seal accessible entry points listed in the approved scope
  • Support trapping after proofing as included
  • Clean affected attic or crawlspace areas when needed
  • Repair or replace damaged insulation and ductwork when included
  • Provide written warranty coverage for covered work

Home protection beyond the entry points

Rodent activity can affect insulation, ductwork and attic or crawlspace conditions. When damage is found, related cleanup and restoration can be coordinated with the proofing work so the home is addressed as a whole.

Related services may include

  • Attic cleaning and sanitizing
  • Crawlspace and subfloor cleanup
  • Insulation removal and replacement
  • Ductwork repair and replacement
  • Exterior screening and targeted home protection
  • Selected nuisance-animal exclusion services

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about rodent control and pest exclusion.

What is rodent exclusion?

Rodent exclusion is the process of identifying and physically sealing accessible openings rats and mice use to enter a structure. The goal is to reduce access to the home rather than relying only on repeated pest treatments.

What is the difference between pest control and rodent proofing?

Traditional pest control may focus on controlling or removing pests. Rodent proofing focuses on the structure itself by finding and sealing accessible entry points so rats and mice have fewer ways to get back inside.

Do you use poison?

No. The Proofing Company does not use poison as part of its rodent-proofing approach. Our focus is physical exclusion, trapping support and home protection.

Can rats come back after trapping?

Yes. Trapping rodents does not automatically eliminate the openings they used to get inside. If entry points remain accessible, new rodents can potentially enter later. That is why proofing and exclusion are an important part of long-term rodent control.

Do you repair rodent-damaged insulation or ductwork?

Yes. Depending on the project, cleanup, insulation removal and replacement, and ductwork repair or replacement can be included in the approved scope of work.
