Park Hills's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Historic brick construction is common throughout the older city neighborhoods, alongside postwar suburban tract homes. Combined with the area's climate — a climate shaped by the region's river-valley position, prone to both severe summer thunderstorms and winter ice — 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.
