MTA Subway stations throughout New York City are closing their doors to unwanted pests with the installation of Xcluder Rodent-Proof Door Sweeps.
The sweeps, featuring reinforced neoprene gaskets lined with Xcluder rodent-proof fill fabric, are installed on the stations’ refuse room doors and designed to create an impenetrable barrier against rats and mice. Since late 2013, more than 100 stations have installed Xcluder Door Sweeps, creating a noticeable drop in the number of rat sightings throughout each station, the company says. By the end of 2015, more than 400 Xcluder Sweeps will be installed across 200 subway stations in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Rodent-proof door sweeps are one of the most important steps in rodent-proofing a building — a simple, cost-effective solution that provides instant protection and benefits, Xcluder says.
