Wadmalaw Island's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Housing here ranges from historic raised Charleston-style homes to newer elevated coastal construction. Combined with the area's climate — a hot, wet, hurricane-prone climate typical of the South Carolina coast — 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.
