Mount Dora's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Housing spans historic river-town homes to newer suburban development throughout North Florida. Combined with the area's climate — a hot, humid summer climate with winters mild enough that a hard freeze is still possible. — 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.
