Why removal without exclusion fails

Almost every recurring rodent problem we are called back to is the same story: the mice were caught, nobody sealed the hole, and more mice arrived. Rodents do not need much — a house mouse gets through a gap the width of a pencil, a rat through one the size of a coin. The animals in your building now are a symptom. The gaps are the problem.

Rodent entry points by location, and how each is sealed
Entry pointSpecies that uses itCorrect repair
Gaps around pipe and cable penetrations Mice and rats Steel wool or copper mesh packed in, then sealed — foam alone is chewed through
Worn or missing door sweeps Mice Fit a sweep with no daylight gap; check garage doors especially
Unscreened air bricks, soffit and gable vents Mice, rats, and wildlife Fit galvanised mesh; plastic mesh is not durable enough
Damaged crawl space or basement vent covers Rats Replace with metal covers fixed to sound masonry
Gaps where siding meets the foundation Mice Close with mesh and sealant; check the whole run, not just the visible section
Roofline gaps at fascia and where roof planes meet Roof rats, squirrels Repair the timber, then close with metal flashing
Utility trenches and broken sewer connections Rats Requires plumbing repair — baiting will not solve it
