Description
Available in Two Sizes – Suitable for a Wide Range of Air Bricks
Heavy Duty Air Brick Cover to Prevent Rodents & Insects
Designed to be used in the toughest of rodent infestations and where 100% proofing of air vents are required to prevent rat, mouse and squirrel ingress. Our vent covers are designed to be used over air bricks on the external wall of properties as the first and most important defence mechanism of preventing rodents within buildings and should be an essential step to avoid re-infestation.
Metal plates are generally the preferred long-term solution to combat heavy infestations or persistent rodents, mainly rats and squirrels. This pest-proofing plate will also stop a wide range of insects, including wasps and bees.
The plates are easy to install and only require an adhesive such as LMN or four screws to the corners for a tough and secure fixing method. If using an adhesive we recommend a flexible LMN or MS-Polymer to allow for temperature fluctuations. Combination kits are available.
We currently supply 3 sizes that are suitable for the majority of proofing installations:
- 95mm x 245mm (Small/standard)
- 170mm x 245mm (Medium)
- 245mm x 245mm (Large)
They are designed and manufactured in the UK and used throughout the pest control professional industry.
IMPORTANT – Must not be used to cover air bricks or vents which are being used for the ventilation of gas appliances. Restriction or even blocking airflow can increase the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
