Keeping pests from entering your business can seem very daunting for the average business owner. Commercial pest exclusion and pest-proofing are strategies pest control professionals use to keep pests out and make sure they stay out. Rodents and insects can damage your inventory and mosquitos and wasps can harass your customers; any sort of pest infestation can be a real issue for your business.

The pest exclusion experts at Florida Pest Control are ready to put 75 years of experience to work keeping those unwanted guests out of your building and out of your mind. Wherever you are in Florida, our team has a commercial pest control solution for you.

What Are Pest Exclusion Services?

Pest exclusion is a process that involves sealing potential pest entry points. Any gap in your structure is a vulnerability; cracks in walls, leaky pipes, poorly-sealed windows, and more. Pests will find a way through a hole of any size.

Are Commercial Pest Proofing and Exclusion Different?

Pest proofing and pest exclusion sound very similar and theyโ€™re easy to mix up. Theyโ€™re frequently used together to enhance pest management efforts. Pest proofing involves repairing damaged structures and spreading repellents to discourage pests from moving in. Pest exclusion focuses on finer details; during this process, technicians seal up any small gaps that pests could use as an entry point.

The technicians at Florida Pest Control have all the skills and experience to patch up even the smallest gap in your defenses. With us on your side, pests donโ€™t stand a chance.

Can I DIY Pest Proofing and Exclusion?

Short answer: yes, there are a few things you can do. Longer answer: DIY is not a substitute for professional pest control, but it can be a useful supplement. Below are a few things you can do while you wait for the pros:

  • Seal any gaps you see. If you see any cracks or openings around doors, windows, or in corners, seal them up with caulk or weather stripping.
  • Seal up food in airtight containers and take out the garbage frequently. Pests go where the food goes. Keep it out of their reach.
  • Clean up after yourself! Simply keeping clean is a good way to deter pests. Wipe up spills and sweep up crumbs as soon as possible.
  • Fix leaky plumbing. Leaking pipes or plumbing fixtures are an easy source of water for pests of all sizes. Have leaks fixed ASAP.
  • Trim back foliage. Trees and shrubs provide the perfect cover for pests to reach your business. Keep them trimmed back.
  • Keep a tight lid on the trash bins. Rodents and bugs arenโ€™t discerning, but if they canโ€™t easily reach your trash, they wonโ€™t bother trying to eat it.
