Homes & Gardens Magazine brought together its list of experts as to what can best help keep a home clean – and in one expert’s case, keep dust and dirt from entering under doorways.
Those same openings are how rats and mice squeeze underneath the exterior doors and enter homes and businesses, spreading disease and creating an infestation.
According to Prerna Jain, founder / owner of Ministry of Cleaning, preventing windows, doors and other cracks and crevices from allowing dust and dirt from entering is critical. The same principle applies to preventing rodents from entering.
Jain says having something to “create an additional barrier between the outdoors and your home …. (will help) reduce the dust that enters.”
Top of the list of products that can prevent both rodents and dust / dirt, is the line of Burrtec’s door sweep products, made with stainless steel – not plastic or aluminum like other manufacturers. These 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.
Burrtec’s new product, Ratshut, has a stainless-steel spine and is an essential tool for maintenance and facility managers, pest control professionals, and garage door installers. Burrtec’s door sweeps can protect from rodent infestations, as well as stop dust, dirt, and pollen.
