Rats and mice can squeeze through gaps far smaller than a possum needs, and they often use the same roof and wall spaces. Light, quick scratching in the ceiling, walls or kitchen cupboards is the usual sign. They breed quickly, so a small problem can grow over a few weeks. When you call about your Mango Hill home, we give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew to find and close the gaps.
The crew we book looks at every spot rodents tend to use. A mouse can get through a gap about as wide as a pencil, so they check weep holes, gaps under garage doors, pipe and cable entries, gaps around air conditioning lines, vents, sheet ends and the joins between walls and roofs. Droppings, chewed insulation and grease marks show where the rodents travel.
Gaps are closed with fine steel mesh, rodent-resistant sealant, brush strips and door seals, depending on the spot. Weep holes get mesh covers so the walls can still breathe. If a possum is also using the roof, the crew can proof for both on the same visit and show you each sealed gap.
- Weep hole mesh covers
- Garage door seals and brush strips
- Pipe, cable and air conditioning gaps sealed
- Vents and sheet ends meshed
- Wall and roof joins closed
Homes near parks, lakes and bush corridors in Mango Hill tend to see more rats and mice once the weather cools. Rodents also chew cables, so it is worth dealing with them early. Sheds and garages close to the house can be checked too. To book rodent proofing, call 07 3543 7771 and tell us where you are hearing them.
