Introduction to Advanced Rodent Management
Welcome to a fascinating episode with Franklin ‘The Pestgeek’ Hernandez, our esteemed holistic pest control management expert. Today, we delve into an intricate battle against a severe rodent infestation within the walls of a historical residence in Coral Gables, Florida. Constructed in the vibrant era of the mid-1920s and subjected to multiple expansions, this property tells a tale of resilience, not just architecturally but also in its fight against persistent rodent invaders.
The Battle Against Time and Rats
Despite an investment exceeding $3,000 in pest control efforts, including state-of-the-art rodent trapping and exclusion services spanning nearly four months, the challenge remains daunting. This episode provides a deep dive into the world of pest management within older homes, highlighting the unique structural and plumbing challenges that come with the territory.
