Why Alcoa

Why Alcoa Homes Get Hit Harder Than Most

Industrial and airport ground sustains rodents that housing never would. Plant sites, rail, warehousing and airport food service give Norway rats undisturbed harbourage and steady waste, and they range outward into the residential blocks. Exclusion at your own wall carries the weight, because the source is not yours to clear.

Planned mill housing adds the rest. Built in blocks to one specification, these houses reach the same faults together — sill lines, crawl vents and drainage of the same age along a whole street. Foothill damp keeps those crawl spaces wet for carpenter ants, under steady eastern subterranean termite pressure.

Common Questions

Alcoa Pest Questions, Answered

Rats from the industrial side.
Plant, rail and airport ground offers undisturbed harbourage and steady waste at a scale residential streets never produce. You will not clear that source, so the work is at your own wall — sealing at grade, clearing growth from the walls, and secured bins.
Our neighbour had the same problem.
On planned mill housing that is useful information rather than coincidence. These streets were built to one specification, so sill lines, crawl vents and drainage are the same age and condition along the block. If one house has it, the conditions next door are comparable.
Mice through the same gaps every year.
Same-age construction means same-age weak points — sill junctions, vent frames and service penetrations. A mouse needs about a quarter-inch. Sealing those in early autumn does far more than trapping once the cold arrives.
Crawl space damp in the foothills.
Shade and slope drainage keep the ground under these houses wet. Take gutters and downspouts well clear, correct the grade, then lay a vapour barrier and open the venting — in that order. Treatment over standing damp will not hold.
Flies near the airport corridor.
Food service waste supports flies well beyond the terminal, especially in summer. Sealed bins and prompt clearing reduce what holds them at your building, and treating the sunlit walls where flies rest by day handles the rest.
