Exclusion engineering for facilities — seal the building, cut the treatments.
Recurring pest problems at commercial properties almost always trace to the same root cause: the building itself is open for business to pests. Gaps under dock doors, unsealed utility penetrations, worn door sweeps, damaged vent screens and foundation cracks let rodents and insects re-enter as fast as treatments remove them — wasting budget on a cycle that never closes.
Strib's commercial pest proofing (exclusion) service ends the cycle by sealing the structure: a full-envelope survey, professional-grade sealing of every vulnerability, and documentation of what was closed and where.
Every exclusion plan is designed around your property's construction, its structural concerns and the flow of your business — deliveries, dock schedules, customer traffic — so the work happens with minimal disruption to daily operations. We use rodent-proof materials (not foam a mouse chews through in a night) and address the conducive conditions other vendors miss: drainage, vegetation against walls, waste-area placement.
Corporate buildings, retail, restaurants, manufacturing plants, USDA/FDA-inspected and privately audited facilities, warehouses, schools, hotels, medical facilities and food processing sites across southern Wisconsin. For audited facilities, exclusion is the highest-leverage line in your pest management program — auditors know a sealed building when they see one, and so do the trend charts.
Routine service manages pest populations; exclusion removes their access. Sealing the building envelope is a mostly one-time capital fix that reduces how much ongoing treatment you need — and it is the first thing we evaluate at chronically re-infested facilities.
Rarely. Most exclusion work happens at the building exterior — docks, doors, penetrations, rooflines — and is scheduled around deliveries and business hours. Interior sealing is coordinated area by area with your team.
It strengthens them significantly. Third-party auditors and USDA/FDA inspectors look for structural pest prevention, not just bait stations. Our documented exclusion report slots directly into your food-safety or facility audit binder.
