Mice and rats are opportunists, and East Palatka properties give them plenty of opportunity. A mix of older wood-frame homes and newer construction, with more traditional Southern-style housing than the concrete-block homes further south. Once inside a wall void or attic space, they're difficult to remove without sealing the entry point that let them in.
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.
