Mouse Proofing Beaconsfield — Find & Seal Entry Points (HP9)
Mice don’t read “keep out” signs—they squeeze through 6 mm gaps. Our HP9 proofing service finds every entry point and seals it with proper materials so they can’t come back. Traps remove what’s inside; proofing keeps the rest outside where they belong.
What We Proof (Inside & Out)
- Air bricks & vents: stainless or welded-mesh guards that maintain airflow.
- Weep holes: discreet inserts that allow drainage but block entry.
- Service penetrations: water/gas/heating/cable holes sealed with steel mesh + mortar or metal collars.
- Kitchen kickboards & chases: seal behind units; close gaps around pipes and cables.
- Doors & thresholds: brush strips and threshold repairs (garage/internal link doors included).
- Loft eaves & gable vents: mesh while preserving ventilation; hatch sealing.
- Garages & utilities: weather strips, side-door gaps, and penetrations into the house.
Materials That Last (No Foam & Hope)
- Stainless/welded mesh (not chicken wire)
- Steel plates/collars and escutcheons around services
- Mortar/repair compounds for masonry gaps
- Brush seals for doors/garage thresholds
- Sealants only as backing—final barrier is always metal/mortar
Our Beaconsfield Proofing Process
- Survey & trace: inside/out routes (loft, risers, kickboards, externals). We map every gap.
- Humane knock-down: targeted trapping so we don’t seal live mice inside.
- Proofing works: fit guards, seal penetrations, add brush strips, mesh eaves/hatches.
- Hygiene tweaks: food storage, pet feed, bin routines—simple changes that help.
- Sign-off visit: remove captures, photo report and aftercare checklist.
Common HP9 Hotspots We Fix
- Gap under the side/garage door
- Open air bricks/weep holes on the driveway elevation
- Under-sink pipe penetrations and behind appliances
- Loft eaves (open bird-mouths, cable holes) and unsealed hatches
- Utility cupboards and boxed-in risers
Is It Safe & Discreet?
Yes. Indoors we prioritise non-toxic control and use tamper-resistant stations only when appropriate. Unbranded attendance available on request.

FAQs
How small a gap can a mouse use?
About 6 mm (pencil-width). That’s why our survey is meticulous and materials are metal-first.
Will vent covers block airflow?
No—our rodent-proof vent guards are designed to keep ventilation rates while stopping access.
Do you use poison for proofing jobs?
Our goal is trapping + proofing. Rodenticide is a last resort and only in tamper-resistant stations with removal at the end.
How long does proofing take?
Most homes are completed in a single visit; larger houses or complex facades may need a scheduled follow-up.
