Common Rodent Entry Points in New Haven County Homes
Cold weather drives mice and rats indoors fast — especially in New Haven County, CT.
Most rodent problems start outside the home, long before activity is noticed indoors. Common entry and harborage areas include:
• Gaps at the foundation and siding
• Roof vents, soffits, and chimney openings
• Garage door sweeps and side gaps
• Crawl space and basement vent covers
• Firewood, bird feeders, trash, and outdoor pet food
Rodents only need small openings to get inside, and winter exposes weak points quickly. Identifying and sealing these areas early can help prevent damage, odors, and ongoing activity.
