Nice idea. Thanks for the DIY and love Echo. Chipmunks are our garage door problem and I will do this too. Chipmunks are amazingly clever at getting in to the house.
Yes the aluminum can be painted any colour you like. Just be sure to get paint that is intended for metal surfaces and clean the metal with Acetone before applying.
So I used flashing 6 inch cut which has been working but I noticed the other day they have chewed a hole right above the 6 inches they found the weakness! Nuts huh??
I left about a 1/8" gap to avoid it catching and that has worked fine for me, but if your garage door has a lot of play in it then a slight outward bend is a great idea
I'll have to try this out. I've been having the same issue where the mice chew their way in through the wood and rubber seal. Damn vermin freeloaders know winter's coming and and want in.
Been trying to figure out how the mice are getting in for years. Your solution looks better than my caulk-in-the corners attempt. I sure hope this does it for me.... Can they not get under the rubber in the middle? Is it only the corners? I guess I will find out...
The most common area for rodents to nibble are the corners (probably because they can hide there). It’s been 2 years since I had a single mouse in my garage after doing this, so I think you’ll find it works.
Well a simple fix, but have to say, the shiny metal does not blend into the color of the garage door....but I guess if the fix is for critters, the aesthetics is not a big deal....
when they enter garage then very asy them to enter whole house I ffound big nest in my bed room cclosed draver with babie maises .Mose chew corner of the garage doors .
We have two and they are great mousers INSIDE... But we don't let them in the garage because otherwise they might get outside the house. So looking for a solution like this.
I’m going to give you a chance to not look like a jack ass. Am I responding to a question you asked? No! Jackass it’s been 4 weeks and she nor anyone else liked or responded to your post. In fact someone else also said it’s aluminum in other posts besides the guy stating this in the video. Obviously the lady needed a little more information than your dumb ass could comprehend.
@@Charles-lq7kj wow dude, didn’t think you would have such a shit attitude. but iron would be stupid to use and if you don’t get why i have nothing further to add.
any ideas on the gasket to rodent proof? Do check your pup for parasites after mousing as the rodents are full of them. Olive leaf is a harmless herb I use on all our dogs over the decades to control parasites. Good video. Thanks.
