Simon's housing stock shapes exactly where rodents get in. Older wood-frame homes dominate this mountain terrain, many built directly into hollows during the region's coal-mining era. Combined with the area's climate — a humid mountain climate with real seasonal swings, wetter and cooler than much of the surrounding region — 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.
