Exclusion & Prevention
Effective pest control starts with understanding how pests are getting in — and helping stop that intrusion at the source. Treating an active problem without addressing the entry points is a short-term fix. Gorge Central Pest Control provides practical exclusion and prevention services focused on sealing entry points, protecting vulnerable areas, and helping reduce the
chance of future pest activity around the home or structure.
Common prevention work includes sealing gaps, securing access points, and
reinforcing problem areas around crawlspaces, attics, foundations, doors, windows, and exterior
penetrations.
Our approach
We identify how and where pests are entering and take practical steps to seal those pathways — creating a more defensible property. Prevention work is often recommended alongside or following active treatment.

Sealing vents, gaps, and vulnerable openings
Foundations & Walls
Reinforcing cracks, gaps, and exterior penetrations
Doors & Windows

Mark and his team were very helpful in addressing a longstanding and extensive ground squirrel and mouse issue in a turn of the century home with a rock foundation. They were prompt, professional, and beneficial to eradicating as much as possible given the age of the home.

Highly recommend Mark and Gorge Central Pest Control. Mark is very professional and and goes beyond to deliver a good outcome. We had a huge infestation of box elder beetles and now haven't seen one ( or any other pests) for years, after we started working with his company.

I’ve been using Gorge Central Pest Control for the past year and Mark has done an excellent job at my property. I had him do a full rodent start and pin up insulation in my crawl space after a raccoon and mice infestation. He was very diligent and professional. He honored his warranty if any rodents returned.

Absolutely wonderful. We had a really mad skunk. It was not easily removed because it was in a trap and then the trap was in a moving wardrobe box. Matt very patiently tried to calm it down and remove the trap. It wasn’t having it. The skunk was spraying constantly.

Mark and his partner were very thorough in their inspection of my cabin, and they worked hard to exterminate the scentless plant sucking bug infestation that we had over the winter. I give them my highest recommendation.
