Pershing's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A mix of historic river-town homes, university-area housing near Bloomington, and hillside construction typical of southern Indiana's limestone terrain. Combined with the area's climate — a climate that behaves somewhat like the upper South, with shorter, milder winters than the rest of the state — 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.
