Exclusion services that seal pests out — so you treat less and prevent more.
Every mouse in your attic and every cricket in your basement got in somewhere. Pest proofing (exclusion) is the discipline of finding those entry points and permanently closing them: gaps around pipes and cables, foundation cracks, unscreened vents, worn door sweeps, openings in eaves, fascia and soffits.
It's the most underrated service in pest control — because done well, it means fewer chemicals, fewer treatments and fewer surprises, season after season.
We perform a comprehensive roof-to-basement evaluation plus a full exterior survey, then seal every gap, crack and opening we find with materials rodents can't chew through. Any pests already inside are eliminated with environmentally responsible, pet-safe methods before the structure is closed up. You receive a documented report of every point sealed.
The best time to pest-proof in Wisconsin is late summer through early fall — before mice, box elder bugs and lady beetles make their annual push indoors.
Mostly, yes. Quality exclusion work lasts for years. We recommend a periodic re-check because homes settle, materials weather and new gaps appear — but you should not need the full service again for a long time.
It replaces a lot of them. Exclusion is the reason some homes need constant service and others almost never do. Many clients pair a one-time pest-proofing job with our seasonal program for the strongest possible protection.
Late summer through early fall, before Wisconsin's overwintering pests — mice, box elder bugs, Asian lady beetles, crickets — start probing your exterior for a way in. Spring works well too, ahead of ant and wasp season.
