Rodent Proofing

Nobody likes the idea of rats, mice, squirrels, raccoons, and other small animals invading their home. These pests can chew through electrical wires and tamper with insulation in your home, resulting in very costly repairs afterward. The best way to deal with a rodent or small animal infestation in your attic is to take care of it immediately. Any delays can cause the rodents to multiply causing expensive renovations and even expensive home remodeling.

Atticair Air Duct And Insulation has all the expertise you need when it comes to rodent-proofing your attic. We highly recommend acting quickly if you suspect your attic has become home to rodents or other small animals. Don’t wait until things get out of hand. Our trained team can help you take preventative measures before a small situation escalates. We begin with a thorough inspection and assessment of the extent of the rodent infestation. Then we formulate corrective steps to eradicate the issue. For instance, we utilize a combination of steel wool, caulking, and chicken wire or metal mesh to prevent pests from gaining access to your home or attic. Steel wool is stuffed inside of a hole to prevent rodents from entering and biting through the caulk. If none of these solutions work, then a metal screen barrier is used to prevent entry. 

Our experts review and identify all the places where rodents can enter your home. Then we execute a plan to seal these places using a variety of techniques. In some instances, a home may be located under a tree whose branches hover above the roof. Unbeknownst to most homeowners, rodents can use these branches as a way to enter your home, primarily through your attic. And because most homeowners don’t visit their attics very often, it doesn’t take long for these rodents to establish it as their home.
