I have a front porch that I have hired a company to repair. They will be tuckpointing and replacing a step. Under the porch is a fruit cellar accessible from the basement. It has cinder block walls, no exposed dirt. There is a vent in the side of the porch from the cellar. I am concerned about rodents and insects having access to the house thru this vent. My contractor has offered me the option of a chimney vent to replace this vent or to just seal it off. Is there a good reason not to seal it. The cellar is unused.
