Fraser's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Housing here dates heavily to the early-to-mid-1900s auto-industry era, with established neighborhoods and full basements standard. Combined with the area's climate — a climate shaped by the region's Great Lakes position, somewhat milder in winter than western Michigan's snowbelt — 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.
