Cooler weather is coming. The rodents know it too.
As temperatures start to drop in North Texas, mice and rats begin looking for warm, protected places to settle in—and sometimes that means our garages, attics and homes.
Now is a good time to walk around the outside of your house and look for potential entry points.
A few places Mark recommends checking:
🏠 Gaps around garage doors
🔧 Openings around pipes and utility lines
🌳 Tree branches touching or hanging over the roof
🐦 Bird seed or pet food stored outside
💨 Attic and roof vents
🕳️ Small gaps or holes around the exterior
🧺 Dryer vents that aren’t closing properly
And remember: rodents can get through surprisingly small openings. Finding and sealing those entry points before you hear scratching in the attic is much easier than dealing with rodents once they’re inside.
