In the warmer weather areas of the South, rodent activity can be steady 12 months a year so prevention and control are tremendously important.

 

Atlanta’s Enviroguard Pest Solutions uses Burrtec products to stop rats and mice from entering under doorways. Lee Tubbs uses Burrtec USA’s door sweep products for one reason – they work.

 

“Finding a proper solution for exclusion needs is important to every pest control professional,” said Tubbs. “What’s important is being able to install a door sweep easily, know that the product is dependable and strong, and have peace of mind that it will provide premium performance against rodents trying to eat through it.”

 

Because Burrtec’s door sweep products are made with stainless steel – not plastic or aluminum like other manufacturers – it can prevent rodents from biting through it to enter a home or business. That’s why PMPs around the country use it as a daily exclusion tool.

 

“It’s really important to use the right products so our customers can know that we’re doing everything in our power to protect them from pest control issues – especially when we’re trying to prevent them from happening in the first place,” said Tubbs. “That’s why I can feel good about using Burrtec door sweeps whenever I’m in the need of an exclusion solution.”

Mice and rats are causing trouble not only in cities around the country but worldwide, as spring moves forward and warmer temperatures continue to rise.

 

 

The Netherlands has had massive infestations that are tough to control. Displaced persons camps at the Gaza Strip are being overrun with rodents. Western Australia (WA) is experiencing a mouse plague that has been devastating to farmers.

 

In the U.S., it’s heavily reported by many outlets in 2026 that infestations have risen tremendously in California, from rat populations in both urban and rural areas, as well as in major cities like Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco.

 

Orkin named Los Angeles the “Rattiest City in America” in 2025, meaning more rodent control jobs had been ordered by customers in that area than in any other area of the country. The dubious title is suggested to be earned because the year-round warmer temperatures allow for breeding of rodents 12 months a year there.

 

That means that in California, prevention is the most important aspect of control because rodents are so numerous. Therefore, protecting the top entry point – under doors and garage doors – is critical to stop mice and rat infestations.

 

The industry best product for this prevention is Ratshut, a stainless-steel spine-backed product and an essential tool for maintenance and facility managers, pest control professionals, and garage door installers.

Burrtec USA is pleased to announce the release of RatShut for Garage Door Bottom, a new heavy‑duty bottom seal designed to help prevent rats, mice, and other pests from entering through garage door gaps—one of the most common and vulnerable entry points in residential environments.

One of the many overlooked areas of a home or business when trying to prevent insects and rodents from entering is the doorway. The same can be said for a garage and its doorway.

 

But Burrtec has taken the focus away from traditional pest control strategies and added the prevention of keeping rodents from entering under or around doorways.

 

Most mice and rats can squeeze their bodies through a hole as small as a quarter! That means as a door becomes worn, a small opening can be the start of a massive infestation. At many commercial businesses, doors are frequently propped open with a brick or cement block to cool off a warehouse. Over time, this affects the alignment of the door and creates a welcoming path for rodents.

 

Burrtec, which has been a leader in manufacturing door sweep products for decades and is the brand giant in Japan, recently developed the strongest solution for doorways and garages – Ratshut. It is a stainless-steel spine-backed product and an essential tool for maintenance and facility managers, pest control professionals, and garage door installers.
