Materials: what holds and what gets chewed through
Exclusion is the least glamorous part of pest control and the part that decides whether you are a customer again next year. It is also the part most often done badly, usually because the wrong material was used. Expanding foam is not a rodent barrier. Neither is plastic mesh, silicone alone, or steel wool left unsealed and allowed to rust away.
| Material | Holds against | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Galvanised or stainless steel mesh (hardware cloth) | Rats, mice, squirrels | Vents, air bricks, soffit gaps, larger openings needing airflow |
| Copper mesh or stainless wool | Mice, rats | Packing pipe and cable penetrations before sealing over |
| Sheet metal or flashing | Rats, squirrels | Chewed roofline timber, corners, repaired fascia |
| Mortar or concrete patching | All rodents | Masonry gaps, holes at the foundation line |
| Door sweeps and threshold seals (metal-backed) | Mice | Gaps under external and garage doors |
| Expanding foam on its own | Nothing — chewed through readily | Draught-proofing only, never as a pest barrier |
| Plastic or fibreglass insect screen | Insects only | Window and door screening, never rodent exclusion |
| Silicone or acrylic sealant alone | Insects only | Finishing a joint after a rodent-proof material is in place |
