Who does the work?
XXX, a pest control company registered with the California Structural Pest Control Board (registration XXX). Sealwell books the appointments; XXX’s licensed technicians do the inspection and all the rodent control work.
Why not just set traps?

What are the gaps sealed with?
Quarter-inch steel hardware cloth and sheet metal, the materials LA County Public Health recommends. Foam and caulk on their own get chewed through.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. XXX gives a 1-year written warranty on exclusion work. The terms come with your quote.
Which areas do you serve?
Homes across Los Angeles County, California: the San Fernando Valley, Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, Hollywood, the Westside, Santa Monica, Long Beach and more.
