Why Willis

Why Willis Homes Get Hit Harder Than Most

A high proportion of part-time occupancy changes what gets noticed. Houses shut up between visits give rodents and wasps months of undisturbed time, and problems that a permanent resident would catch in the first week are established by the time anyone returns. Opening a property is often when the discovery happens rather than the start.

The northern lake arms add the physical side. Shallow coves and creek inlets at this end warm early and hold still water with heavy bank growth, which produces mosquitoes ahead of the main body of the reservoir, and the same margins carry snakes and rodents to waterfront gardens.

Common Questions

Willis Pest Questions, Answered

We only find problems when we arrive.
That is the pattern with part-time occupancy rather than bad luck. Nothing is being noticed in between, so a wasp nest or rodent population has had months rather than days. Checking eaves, garage corners and under sinks on arrival, before unpacking, catches most of it while it is still small.
Why are mosquitoes worse at this end of the lake?
The northern arms are shallower and more sheltered, so they warm earlier in the year and hold still water with heavier bank growth. Production starts here before the open water further south, which is why the season feels longer at this end.
Snakes on the waterfront.
Bank vegetation gives them cover and rodents give them a reason. Most are harmless species hunting, so clearing dense growth, woodpiles and debris from the last few metres before the house removes what they are actually following.
Should we treat a house we barely use?
It usually pays better here than in a permanently occupied home, precisely because nobody is watching. A visit timed before the empty stretch, rather than after it, prevents the situation you would otherwise walk into.
Spiders through the whole house after winter.
Undisturbed rooms are ideal for them, and a closed-up property offers nothing but undisturbed rooms. Clearing webs on arrival and reducing the insect traffic they feed on, particularly around outdoor lighting, does more than treating the spiders alone.
