Why Gravenhurst Homes & Cottages Need Proactive Pest Protection
Gravenhurst’s mix of dense woods, lakefront humidity, older cottage construction, and seasonal occupancy makes properties especially vulnerable to wildlife and insect activity.
Common issues include:
- Rodents entering through crawlspaces and boathouses
- Raccoons damaging attic and roofline openings
- Carpenter ants targeting damp or decaying wood
- Cluster flies & spiders entering through soffits and window frames
- Bats roosting in rooflines and gable vents
Our team identifies hidden entry points and provides GPS-verified service scanning so you always know exactly what has been serviced, sealed or monitored.
