Pest Entry Point Exclusion in Vancouver

​

One of the most effective ways to prevent pest and wildlife infestations is through entry point exclusion. All Green Pest Control specializes in identifying and sealing off potential entry points that pests and nuisance wildlife could use to gain access into your home or business.

Our entry point exclusion process begins with a thorough inspection of your property. We look for any cracks, holes, or gaps in foundations, walls, roofs, attics, crawlspaces, and more that could allow entry. Common entry points include:

• Gaps around windows, doors, utility pipes, vents, and wiring
• Cracks in foundations, siding, or stucco
• Openings in roof eaves, soffits, and vents
• Uncapped chimneys
• Unsealed plumbing and utility line entry points.

While extermination and removal of existing pests is crucial, it’s only a temporary solution if entry points aren’t properly sealed. Pests are persistent and will simply find new ways back into your property if their original access routes remain open.

Here are some key reasons why entry point exclusion is so vital:

• Stops the infestation cycle: By cutting off access, you prevent new pests from getting inside to reproduce and replace those that were eliminated.
• Saves money long-term: Exclusion reduces the need for repeated extermination services by stopping infestations at the source.
• Improves sanitation: Sealing cracks and holes eliminates entry points for rodents and insects that spread diseases and contaminate surfaces.
• Enhances energy efficiency: Proper sealing of gaps and crevices can boost insulation and reduce heating and cooling costs.
• Protects structural integrity: Many pests like termites, carpenter ants, and rodents cause serious property damage by gnawing through wood and building materials.

At All Green, our exclusion services create a protective envelope around your property, giving you peace of mind that pests will be locked out for good.

We follow a thorough multi-step process to identify and seal every potential pest entry point:

1. Comprehensive Inspection

First, our technicians conduct a top-to-bottom inspection of your entire property, inside and out. We check every nook and cranny, using specialized tools when needed to inspect hard-to-reach areas.

Areas we inspect include but are not limited to:

• Foundations and basement
• Attics and roof lines
• Exterior walls and siding
• Windows, doors, and frames
• Utility lines and piping entry points
• Vents, chimneys, and exhaust ducts
• Cracks in concrete, brick, or stucco
• Gaps around fixtures and trim.

We look for any signs of current pest activity as well as potential future entry routes, and carefully document all findings.

2. Entry Point Mapping

Using the data from the inspection, we create a detailed entry point map that highlights every hole, crack, and gap that needs to be sealed. This map ensures no area is overlooked during the exclusion process.

3. Material Selection

We carefully select exclusion materials based on the types of pests, the construction materials involved, and environmental conditions. Our preferred materials include:

• Stainless steel mesh
• Copper and zinc-based products
• Caulking and sealants
• Cements and mortar patching
• Expandable foams
• Flashing and vent covers.

These professional-grade materials are extremely durable, weather-resistant, and designed specifically to exclude pests while protecting your property.

4. Entry Point Sealing

Our technicians get to work meticulously sealing each identified entry point using the selected materials and proven techniques. We pay special attention to creating a seamless, impenetrable barrier without any gaps. For larger openings and holes, we install heavy-duty stainless steel mesh secured with concrete screws. Smaller cracks and crevices are filled with caulking, foam sealants, or patched with cement mixtures.

5. Final Inspection

Once the exclusion work is complete, we conduct a final walkthrough to ensure every entry point has been properly sealed with no openings remaining for pests to exploit.

At All Green, we understand that every property and pest situation is unique. That’s why we develop customized exclusion plans tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.

Factors we consider include:

• Construction type (wood, concrete, etc.)
• Age of property
• Previous pest issues

• Structural condition
• Budget constraints.
