Rodent Removal vs. Exclusion
When dealing with a rodent problem, it’s important to know the difference between removal and exclusion—two key steps in keeping your home pest-free. Rodent removal is the process of getting rid of rodents that are already inside your home. This usually involves traps or bait to eliminate the current infestation. It’s reactive—you’re solving a problem that already exists. Rodent exclusion, on the other hand, is proactive. It involves sealing up entry points, reinforcing vulnerable areas, and making your property less attractive to rodents. The goal is to prevent them from getting in at all. In short: removal gets them out, exclusion keeps them out. For long-term protection, both are essential.
