Elora's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Housing here ranges from historic mountain-valley homes to newer suburban development around the region's larger towns. Combined with the area's climate — a climate typical of Appalachian foothill country, with genuine winter cold in the higher elevations — rodents seeking shelter from weather extremes make a beeline for any accessible gap.
We start with an inspection to find every entry point — gaps around utility lines, foundation cracks, vents, rooflines — since sealing those is what actually stops new rodents from getting in. Interior work combines snap traps and tamper-resistant bait stations, chosen based on the property and whether pets or children are present. A follow-up visit confirms activity has stopped.
