Pest control built for Gravesend
Gravesend is a largely residential neighbourhood of semi-detached and attached homes with small yards, interspersed with low-rise apartment buildings — a housing mix that produces both outdoor-pest issues (ants, stinging insects) in the yards and classic apartment-pest pressure (cockroaches, mice) in the multi-family stock.
The 86th Street and Kings Highway commercial corridors are busy food-retail and restaurant strips; food-waste pressure from these strips feeds rodent populations that enter adjacent residential basements and shared service areas.
Older homes near McDonald Avenue have basements prone to damp from the area's low elevation near Gravesend Bay, drawing 'water bugs' and carpenter ants wherever moisture persists.
