Pest Control PRO LLC
Hilltop is older west-side Columbus housing with crawl spaces, stone foundations, and settled sewer connections. Norway rats and German roaches are the most common calls, and both persist because the entry points stay open.
Why Hilltop gets pressure
- Pre-1950 housing with crawl spaces and stone foundations - classic rat entry
- Older sewer and utility connections stay open at the foundation line
- Shared walls in older multi-unit housing spread roaches building to building
- Vacant lots and overgrown yards create harborage that pushes rodents into homes
What service looks like in Hilltop
Hilltop service starts at the foundation line: sewer connections, utility penetrations, and crawl space vents. Rat work is exclusion first - find the entry, seal it, then trap and monitor. Roach work in shared-wall housing requires coordinated service across the affected units, not single-unit spraying.
Seasonal pest calendar
- Spring: ants, stink bugs, stinging insects, mosquitoes, termites, and spiders
- Summer: mosquitoes, stinging insects, fleas from harborage wildlife, spiders, and roaches
- Fall: rats, mice, wildlife, and stink bugs and spiders moving indoors to escape the cold
