Why Mill Basin Has a Rodent Proofing Problem
Mill Basin's mix of single-family homes, many with basements and garages near the water, creates ideal conditions for rodent activity, particularly during colder months. The neighborhood's proximity to Marine Park and the Mill Basin inlet means extra vigilance is needed to protect properties from Norway rats and house mice seeking warmth and food sources.
Why Choose Us for Rodent Proofing in Mill Basin
Rodent proofing is the permanent solution to recurring mouse and rat problems — addressing the structural vulnerabilities that allow rodents to enter rather than repeatedly treating the symptom. Our licensed technicians conduct a comprehensive exterior inspection of your entire property, documenting every gap, crack, utility penetration, vent opening, and structural weakness that could serve as a rodent entry point. We then seal each identified opening using the appropriate material for that application: steel wool packed into gaps, hardware cloth over vents and larger openings, copper mesh around pipes, and silicone or foam for smaller cracks and seams. Our 1-year structural guarantee covers the exclusion work — if rodents re-enter through any area we sealed, we come back and fix it.
