Residential pest control in McGrath Homes
Most McGrath homes are single-family, piling-built, and heated with wood or fuel oil. That construction keeps families warm, but it also creates the crawlspace and skirting gaps that rodents use every fall. Our residential pest control in McGrath is built around those realities. We inspect the crawlspace, seal the entry points, and set monitoring stations under the floor. Inside, we treat kitchens, pantries, and utility rooms where pests actually show up. No long-term contract required, and we quote the job before we start.
- Crawlspace and skirting exclusion โ We seal the rim joist, utility penetrations, and the skirting line with exclusion mesh and sealants. In McGrath, this is the single most effective step for stopping mice. Most homes need 20 to 60 feet of sealing, and the work carries a warranty.
- Interior rodent trapping and baiting โ For mice already inside, we set snap traps and tamper-resistant bait stations in the pantry, utility room, and crawlspace. We check them on a follow-up visit and remove any carcasses, so you are not dealing with the cleanup yourself.
- Spring ant and perimeter treatment โ When the thaw opens cracks around door thresholds and slab floors, we treat with bait stations and dust insecticides. We also seal the cracks we find. This visit is part of our preventive plan and cuts down on summer ant calls.
- Summer wasp and mosquito control โ We remove wasp nests from eaves and sheds after dark, then treat the surrounding surfaces. For riverfront properties, we also treat standing water and shaded vegetation to knock down mosquito pressure in June and July.
