Oakley's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Housing here spans historic wood-frame homes to newer high-density apartment and condo construction throughout the region. Combined with the area's climate — a climate defined by the Bay's moderating effect, rarely too hot or too cold at any point in the year — 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.
