Pest Control in Breslau
Pest control for Breslau's newer subdivisions, older village homes and the farm properties along the Grand River east of Kitchener.
Breslau sits just east of Kitchener across the Grand River, in Woolwich Township, and it has two kinds of housing with two kinds of pest problem. The newer subdivisions built over the last twenty years are surrounded on most sides by working farmland, and when the corn and soybeans come off in October the field mice lose their cover and food in the same week and head for the nearest heated building. A new house with an unsealed garage door, an open weep hole or a gap around the air-conditioner line gets far more rodent pressure here than the same house would in Stanley Park, and the sealing has to be thorough. A September exterior program, before the migration, is cheaper than an emergency in November. The older village homes near the core and the farmhouses along the concessions have the century-home list: stone or early block foundations with opened joints, wood-frame additions that have stayed damp, carpenter ants in a rotted sill or a porch post, and wasps in the barn eaves and the garage. Ground-nesting yellowjackets in the fields and along hedgerows are a late-summer hazard. Properties close to the river stay damp and carry earwigs and ants at the foundation through the summer. Travel to Breslau is built into the written plan from the start rather than added afterwards. Wildlife — raccoons in the barn, bats in the attic — is a different trade and you will be told if that is what the inspection finds.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge more to come out to Breslau or the rural edge?
Not inside Kitchener or Waterloo. For Breslau, the farm properties around Doon and the rural edge, travel is built into the written plan up front rather than added afterwards, so the number you agree to is the number.
Why are the mice worse in Breslau and Doon than downtown?
Open fields. When the crops come off in the fall the field mice lose their cover and food at the same time, and the nearest heated building becomes the target. A house on the edge of a field or beside a hedgerow gets far more pressure than one surrounded by other houses, and the sealing has to be more thorough to hold.
