Pest Exclusion: Keep Rodents Out with Xcluder

If you’ve ever dealt with rodents in your home, you know how unsettling—and expensive—it can be. From chewed wires to contaminated food, the damage adds up fast. But here’s the good news: you don’t need to wait for an infestation to take action. The most effective rodent control strategy starts before the pests ever get inside.

It’s called Pest exclusion, and it’s the method trusted by pest control professionals around the world.

What Is Pest Exclusion?

Exclusion is a preventative approach to pest control. Instead of relying on traps or toxic chemicals after rodents show up, exclusion focuses on sealing off the tiny gaps, cracks, and crevices that pests use to get in. Think of it as putting up a “No Entry” sign for unwanted visitors.

According to urban rodentologist Dr. Bobby Corrigan, one of the most respected names in pest management.

“Exclusion is the most permanent solution we have in our toolbox.”

And for good reason. Rodents like mice can squeeze through openings as small as a dime. Even brand-new homes can have vulnerable rodent entry points—under garage doors, around utility pipes, or beneath exterior doors.
