Rodent
and insect proofing
When
we recommend a pest-control treatment, we will also provide a
report on whether or not we can stop pests entering your premises
in future, and suggest actions to ensure your building remains
pest-proof.
This page covers our services for rodent proofing and
insect proofing.
Rodent
Proofing
Rodent
proofing is the only way to ensure that more rodents do not enter
your premises after a treatment.
A
range of methods and materials are used to block access points
such as air-bricks, cavity walls, void, eves, holes and even gaps
around piping and cables, ensuring that rodents can’t gnaw
their way back in.
Rodent
proofing minimises the risk of rodents re-entering the premises.
It can also reduce the costs of cleaning, heating and maintenance,
since it protects from wind and weather. Finally, the need for
regular pest-control maintenance visits is reduced.
Insect
Proofing
As
part of your insect treatment, our service technicians will carry
out a thorough inspection of your home or business and identify
all the places where insects may enter, so they can be filled.
Typical
entry sites include gaps around windows or doors. You may also
need to install new barriers, such as insect control screens.
Insect
proofing ensures that natural ventilation can be maintained, and
minimises the need to use residual pesticides. It also makes sure
than insects can no longer contaminate food kept at your home
or business.
