While treating this property in Ocean Grove, NJ we found some potential entry points for rodents.

Mice can fit through an opening the width of a dime while a rat can squeeze through an opening the width of a quarter, so both of these gaps are the perfect size for those rodents to infest the home!

Rodents Are Excluded
...and then sealed each opening with a premium, waterproof adhesive. Now the rodents are excluded from the home.
