Rodent & Wildlife Exclusion Services to Protect Your Business from Pests

Rodents and wildlife pests are a hazard for any business. They can contaminate food, destroy inventory, and do a number on your reputation. Even worse, they’re difficult to get rid of once they decide to make your business their home. Luckily, with help from the Terminix Anderson team, your pest concerns can become a thing of the past. In addition to our other commercial pest control solutions,  we offer pest exclusion services to help prevent pest, rodent, and wildlife infestations from starting in the first place.

What Is Rodent and Wildlife Exclusion?

Simply put, pest exclusion (also called pest proofing) is a non-chemical, proactive, integrated pest management strategy. It protects your structure by using pest-proof materials to seal cracks, crevices, voids, and holes to block pests from entering a structure in the first place. 

You’ve probably heard the saying “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of care” – it’s true for pest control too! It’s much easier to prevent an infestation than to eliminate one after it’s established.

When it comes to exclusion, rodents and wildlife pose unique challenges when they outsmart initial exclusion methods and sneak into your business. That’s why the Terminix Anderson team conducts thorough inspections and uses multiple methods of exclusion.

How Does Pest Exclusion Work?

Pest exclusion doesn’t use chemical repellents or pesticides. It’s a proactive approach used alongside your pest management program.  When combined, these treatments significantly reduce the chances of a pest infestation developing in your building.

This combination not only prevents pests from entering a building, but it can also prevent interior pest movement, limiting the size and scope of any infestation. Pest control service plus exclusion can also reduce the areas where mice, rats, squirrels, raccoons, etc. can harbor, and food sources can accumulate, providing long-term control and reducing the need for traditional pesticides.  

When pests enter a facility, it can impact the company’s reputation. Exclusion helps protect that reputation by keeping pests out in as discrete a way as possible.

Terminix Anderson’s Rodent and Wildlife Exclusion Process

We start with a thorough and detailed inspection of the exterior of your facility to identify pest entry points or potential pest activity. Based on our findings, our specialists will create a customized plan tailored for your business using various products including our Flexi Armour line and other materials.

Our Rodent & Wildlife Exclusion service may involve any of the following actions

• Filling fissures, cracks, and holes the size of a dime or larger with our Flexi Armour products or other sealants.
• Using door sweeps to close gaps under exterior doors.
• Installing vent covers to prevent pest entry through exhaust areas.
• Encasing openings where pipes, cables, and wiring enter the building.
• Installing caps or other appropriate covers on chimneys and exhaust pipes.
• Inspecting loading docks and garage doors for pest-sized gaps.
• Checking eaves and gutter lines to close off any potential pest entry points.

The Flexi Armour Shield lasts for up to 2.5 years, while the Seal is a permanent application. Both products can be used on just about any surface, are non-flammable, and can be painted over for a seamless appearance. They can be used on both the interior and exterior.
