I've seen in videos that the larger guitar companies use what looks like a rubber inset but can't find one for sale anywhere. Maybe my google search skills are just poor.

I'm interested in what this group knows/uses and if there's a commercial one out there.
Thanks!
You can try a D'Addario Screeching Halt sound hole plug, but they don't fit every soundhole size.

It's much easier to simply stuff an old discarded soft cotton bath towel into the body.
