Patricksburg's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A blend of established hill-country homes and newer suburban growth tied to the region's university and manufacturing base. Combined with the area's climate — a humid continental climate with milder winters than northern Indiana, given the region's more southern position along the Ohio River — 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.
