Keep Pests Out

What Is Exclusion?

Exclusion pest control in Utah County, UT is often overlooked but it is critical for successful long term pest prevention.

It is one of the key foundational principles of pest management. We should make structures as difficult as possible to enter instead of simply trying to control the pests once they enter. This can be done in a variety of ways from proper door sweeps, to sealants, stainless steel mesh, escutcheon plates, and various other materials and methods.

Thorn’s Exclusion Process Inspect, assess, discuss, install and follow-up.

Thorn’s exclusion process starts with a detailed inspection. After the inspection, we will assess and discuss the best exclusion methods and the best materials to use. Then, we will install these materials and devices. We will follow-up on the work done and continuously monitor to ensure the devices are working properly and that all possible entry points stay closed.

1. Detailed Inspection

First step to exclusion is a detailed inspection. We need to identify any potential entry points for rodents and other pests. Usual pest vulnerable areas like doors, windows, utility penetrations, and where the exterior walls meet eaves must be examined carefully.

2. Assess and Discuss

Once we have identified the potential pest entry points we need to assess and decide what options are best for exclusion. Each situation may require a little bit different approach and solution and thought needs to be put into what will be best for each. Good materials applied in the wrong situations will lead to poor results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing for pest exclusion varies by the type of infestation. Pest proofing doors start at $125, and small exclusion jobs are even less expensive, priced as low as $10 when combined with other services. Exclusion to prevent pests from entering a home or building is usually the least expensive pest solution, so if you need help, contact us for pricing today.

Exclusion refers to the process of sealing up pest entry points. By blocking entry points and sealing cracks, pests are less likely to enter a home or building.

Pricing for preventative pest control is highly variable and depends on what type of pest issues need to be controlled. Pest exclusion is often a starting point, and is almost always a cost effective solution. Exclusion gets the best results over any other treatment strategy, and it works over time unlike sprays and other deterrents that are topical and need to be reapplied.

Rodent exclusion specifically refers to sealing up a structure so that rodents cannot enter. This is critical when trying to control rodents like mice and rats. Trapping is a solution for getting rodents that have already entered a space, but if you fail to block their entryways, you’ll trap them endlessly.

Rodent activity begets rodent activity, because they often urinate when entering a structure which informs other rodents on safe entry points. Our team of experts are trained to identify and block entry points to mitigate an infestation, and can help prevent pests from returning.

Exclusion strategies start with a detailed assessment of pest entry points. Mice and rats can enter through some of the smallest gaps, even those measuring ¼-inch to ½-inch. The skilled and knowledgeable pest control specialists at Thorn understand the most effective methods for exclusion, and can make recommendations for the best materials to seal gaps so that your solutions are rodent proof, and won’t rust or degrade over time.

  • Parker Roberts
    Ash was great to work with! We had a mishap of when he showed up but was happy to work us back into his schedule later in the day.
  • Ashley Boyle (Ashley & Hadleigh)
    I was so impressed with Thorn and our tech Ash. I saw mouse activity late Tuesday night and they were able to get me in The next day when I called that morning. I have experience remediating mice, but did not want to take any chances having small kids and pets around and especially with extra holiday stuff around. I called a few places before Thorne and they were not nearly as comprehensive in their mouse, remediation knowledge and how they were going to help rectify the situation. Their prices were equally comparable to everybody else. I just felt they were going to be able to serve my needs with the mouse activity better than anyone else. very pleased to have gone with them and will be recommending them to anyone I know! Also Vicki, who initially took my call was extremely knowledgeable and how all the services worked and what was included, and that was a huge help not to mention she was super nice!

    Thorn Pest Control is the best. They helped me with a very difficult pest situation. I had been trying for weeks to take care of this problem on my own and never had any good results. Thorn Pest Control came out and spent a considerable amount of time getting to the bottom of my problem and was able to solve it. They were so helpful and good at what they do that I decided I would continue with them, I am very happy that I did.
  • Top-it pickup covers
    Rhett was very kind when he showed up. My house was a bit chaotic and asked that he just did the outside today. He informed me that my mice traps are rat traps and this could be why we are not catching mice. He said he would inform the office of this and get them changed out for us. He is very nice and would like to have him back again.
