Blodgett's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A blend of established neighborhoods and newer development, with moisture management a defining construction concern given the wet climate. Combined with the area's climate — a mild, wet Pacific Northwest climate with cool, rainy winters and warm, dry summers — rodents seeking shelter from weather extremes make a beeline for any accessible gap.
Exclusion is the core of effective rodent control: finding and sealing every gap a mouse or rat could use to get inside, since traps alone just remove the current population without stopping the next one. We pair exterior sealing with interior trapping or bait stations, then follow up to confirm the problem is resolved.
