Ekskludering av gnagere
Why Do I Need A Rodent Exclusion? The need for rodent exclusion is an imperative and straightforward answer. In your home, business, or any structure, Rodents had to come from an opening or void in that home at some point. Without that opening, they would not be present to pose an infestation, possible electrical fires from gnawing, or health hazards. Watching our Imperial Pest Prevention YouTube video above will give you a glimpse of rodents inside your home, attic, or crawlspace. Sealing openings from rodent entry is a must for protecting your home, health, and family. If

What is a Rodent Exclusion?
Rodent exclusion, a fundamental component of Integrated Pest Management (IPM), is a strategic approach to prevent rodents from entering and inhabiting human structures. Unlike traditional pest control methods that often focus on eradicating pests after they have infested, rodent exclusion proactively addresses the root cause of infestations by eliminating entry points and attractions. This environmentally friendly and sustainable solution ensures long-term protection against rodents. Key elements of rodent exclusion include:
Identification of Entry Points:
-
A thorough property inspection is conducted to identify current and potential entry points. Rodents can squeeze through surprisingly small gaps; mice can enter through openings as small as a dime, and rats can fit through holes the size of a quarter.
Sealing and Repairing Gaps:
-
Gaps found during the inspection are sealed with rodent-proof materials. Common materials include metal mesh, hardware cloth, metal flashing, and concrete. The choice of material depends on the gap's location and size and the rodent type.
Landscaping and Yard Maintenance:
-
Proper landscaping helps deter rodents. This includes trimming tree branches away from the structure, keeping shrubs and vegetation well-maintained and away from the building's foundation, and eliminating debris or clutter that could provide nesting sites.
Eliminating Food and Water Sources:
-
Rodents are attracted to areas where food and water are readily available. Ensuring that food is stored in sealed containers, addressing leaky pipes or faucets, and keeping the area clean can significantly reduce the likelihood of a rodent infestation.
Monitoring and Maintenance:
-
Regular inspections and maintenance are crucial for ensuring the
effectiveness of the exclusion measures. This involves checking the integrity of seals and repairs, monitoring for signs of new activity, and adjusting strategies as needed to adapt to changes in rodent behavior or new vulnerabilities in the structure.
Use of Traps and Baits as Complementary Measures:
-
While exclusion focuses on prevention, the use of traps and baits can be integrated as part of the overall management strategy, especially in the initial phases to control the existing population. These methods must be used responsibly and to minimize risks to non-target species and the environment.
Education and Communication:
-
Property owners and occupants play a crucial role in the success of rodent exclusion. Educating them about best practices in sanitation, waste management, and signs of rodent activity helps maintain a rodent-free environment. Rodent exclusion is a comprehensive and proactive approach that requires a detailed understanding of rodent behavior, meticulous property assessment, and ongoing vigilance. By addressing the factors that attract rodents and securing potential entry points, rodent exclusion provides an effective and humane way to protect properties from the health risks and damages associated with rodent infestations.

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.
