Pest control built for Morris Heights
Morris Heights is a dense residential neighbourhood of large pre-war apartment buildings along University Avenue and University Heights — the building stock has the shared basements, service corridors and ageing plumbing risers where mice and German cockroaches establish and travel between multiple floors.
The commercial density along West Fordham Road and Jerome Avenue feeds rodent pressure into adjacent residential buildings; the elevated Jerome Avenue subway line sustains rat populations in the transit infrastructure that regularly access building basements through utility openings.
High residential density and rental turnover in the neighbourhood's apartment buildings make bed bug introductions and spread a recurring challenge; ant pressure is consistent in ground-floor and basement-level units of older buildings.
