Homer's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Housing spans established mid-century Atlanta neighborhoods to brand-new subdivisions throughout the metro's outer suburbs. Combined with the area's climate — a climate shaped by the region's inland Piedmont position, warmer than the mountains and milder in winter than points north — 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.
