Rodent Proofing Resource
Roof vents are necessary for airflow, but damaged screens and open bonnet-style vents can also become rodent entry points.
The goal is not to block ventilation. The proofing method should keep the vent functional while making the opening more resistant to rodents.
Loose, missing or deteriorated screens can leave enough room for rats or mice to enter attic space.
Different vent styles and roof materials may require different screening or fastening methods.

If you are hearing scratching, seeing droppings or finding signs of rodent activity, the next step is to find the actual entry points.
We check accessible areas of the roofline, attic, garage and exterior for signs of rats or mice and the openings they may be using. We explain what we find and use those findings to build the recommended scope.
When those areas can be safely accessed, yes. Rooflines, vents, coves, attic spaces and garage-to-attic connections are often important parts of a rodent inspection.
Yes. We explain the problem areas we identify and use photos where appropriate so you can understand what needs to be sealed.
No. Every home is different. The recommended work depends on the entry points, activity, access and conditions found at that property.
Rodent proofing means finding the openings rats and mice use to enter a home and sealing them with durable, rodent-resistant materials.
Hearing scratching? Finding droppings?
Seal it once. Seal it right. That’s the Integrity Way.
