Limerick's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A mix of historic sea-captain homes, fishing-village cottages, and newer construction, many with basements for winter protection. Combined with the area's climate — a four-season climate tempered by ocean proximity, milder than inland Maine but still genuinely cold in winter — 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.
