No matter your industry, pest problems can create significant issues for your business. They can disrupt daily operations, frustrate staff and tenants, and damage your business’s reputation. Dodson Pest Control’s exclusion services are designed to prevent these headaches before they start by identifying and sealing off the structural vulnerabilities that allow pests inside.
What Are Exclusion Services?
Exclusion is the process of physically blocking pests from entering your property. Rather than reacting to infestations after they occur, exclusion targets the structural vulnerabilities and environmental factors that allow pests to invade in the first place.
Our commercial pest control team inspects your facility with a detailed eye, locating cracks, gaps, vents, and other openings that may go unnoticed to you but create open invitations to pests. Once identified, we provide guidance on how you can implement durable, long-lasting solutions to keep them out for good.
Why Exclusion Matters
Stops Infestations Before They Start
Eliminate access points, and you eliminate the problem. Exclusion helps prevent costly infestations before they ever occur.
A Cost-Effective, Long-Term Solution
Once vulnerabilities are sealed, you reduce the need for repeated treatments, saving money and time in the long run.
Helps Maintain Regulatory Compliance
Many industries require pest prevention measures for compliance. Exclusion helps meet standards for FDA, USDA, OSHA, and third-party audits.
Dodson’s Approach to Exclusion
No two facilities are the same, and we customize our solutions based on your unique needs.
Comprehensive Facility Inspection
We evaluate your entire structure, inside and out, to pinpoint even the smallest vulnerabilities. Common problem areas include:
- Gaps around doors and windows
- Openings in the foundation or roofline
- Utility penetrations
- Damaged vents or screens
- Loading docks and storage areas
Custom Sealing & Structural Modifications
After identifying problem areas, our technicians can guide you on the best ways to install high-quality materials that block pest access. This may include:
- Metal mesh and screens
- Weather stripping and door sweeps
- Concrete and sealants
- Vent covers and cap systems
Sanitation & Habitat Modification
Pests are drawn to easy food, water, and shelter. We help eliminate these attractants by offering sanitation guidance, debris cleanup suggestions, and other recommendations to reduce harborage zones both indoors and around the exterior.
Ongoing Monitoring & Maintenance
Exclusion is not a one-time fix. We provide routine inspections and maintenance plans to ensure your building remains secure as seasons change and structures shift.
