Lower Salem's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. A mix of century-old Cincinnati neighborhoods and mid-century Dayton suburbs built around Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Combined with the area's climate — a humid climate with hot summers and winters mild enough that snow cover is less consistent than up north — 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.
