Hassell's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A mix of historic tobacco-era homes and rapidly expanding new construction tied to the region's tech and research growth, most on slab or crawl-space foundations. Combined with the area's climate — a four-season climate with real but generally brief winter cold and long, humid summers — 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.
