Willard's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A blend of historic rural construction and modest newer homes, both shaped by the region's hilly, forested terrain. Combined with the area's climate — a humid subtropical climate moderated by elevation, with hot summers and colder winters than the Bluegrass lowlands — 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.
