Rodent Proofing New Haven

Rodent proofing (exclusion) is the most effective long-term rodent control strategy. We inspect your entire property for entry points — gaps around pipes, utility lines, doors, vents, and foundation cracks — and seal them with rodent-proof materials like steel mesh, copper wool, and concrete. This prevents rats and mice from entering without relying solely on traps and baits.

FAQ

Rodent Proofing — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions our licensed exterminators receive about rodent proofing in New Haven, including costs, treatment timelines, preparation steps, and what results to expect.

How much does rodent proofing cost in New Haven?

Rodent Proofing is billed at a flat $199/hr, 1-hour minimum, no matter the pest type or severity. Every job includes an inspection and an upfront estimate before any work begins — the rate never changes based on what we find.

How is rodent proofing different from extermination?

Extermination kills existing rodents. Rodent proofing prevents new ones from entering. For lasting results, you need both — we eliminate the current population and then seal every entry point so they can't return.

What materials do you use for rodent proofing?

We use steel mesh, copper wool, hardware cloth, steel plates, concrete, and expanding foam reinforced with steel wool. Regular caulk and foam alone won't work — rats chew through them in hours.

How small of a gap can a mouse fit through?

Mice can squeeze through gaps as small as 1/4 inch (the diameter of a pencil). Rats can fit through gaps as small as 1/2 inch (the size of a quarter). We seal all gaps larger than 1/4 inch with rodent-proof materials.

Do you guarantee rodent proofing work?

Yes. We warranty our exclusion work and will return to address any new entry points at no charge during the warranty period. We also offer annual inspection programs to maintain your rodent-proof barrier.
