Rodent control and entry point sealing in Ottawa — FixItAll Handyman Services

Hearing scratching sounds or finding droppings in your home?
I start with a focused inspection to identify where rodents are getting in (common spots include gaps around pipes, siding edges, vents, and foundation openings).
Then I seal entry points with pest-resistant materials (including professional-grade expanding foam, and metal mesh where it’s needed).
If appropriate, I place basic traps or deterrents in strategic locations to help reduce activity.
The goal is to stop new entry, improve hygiene, and restore peace of mind.
You get a cleaner, safer space with fewer unpleasant surprises.
Service is available across Ottawa and nearby areas.

What’s included: inspection of common entry routes, identification of gaps/openings, sealing of accessible entry points, and basic trap/deterrent placement (when suitable). I work neatly and protect surrounding surfaces during sealing.

When this service helps: scratching noises (especially at night), droppings, gnaw marks, food/package damage, or cold drafts coming from small gaps. If you’re seeing frequent activity or signs in multiple rooms, it usually means entry points are still open and should be addressed.

Process & result check: I locate likely access points, seal them, and then re-check the perimeter for missed gaps. I’ll also explain what was sealed and what to monitor over the next 1–2 weeks (new droppings, fresh gnawing, renewed noise). This helps confirm whether entry has been successfully blocked or if additional steps are needed.

Important limitations: This is a handyman-based prevention service (entry point sealing + basic traps). I do not perform licensed extermination services, large-scale baiting/poison programs, or hazardous cleanup. If there is a severe infestation, dead animals in walls/attics, or you need professional pesticide/bait treatment, I recommend hiring a licensed pest control company.
