Boynton's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Slab and crawl-space construction both appear here, common throughout this more humid part of the state. Combined with the area's climate — a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers, colder winters than western Oklahoma, and a real spring severe-weather season — 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.
