Rodent Control in Etobicoke

Etobicoke stretches along Toronto's western lakeshore, where the Humber River meets Lake Ontario. Older industrial strips along the Mimico and New Toronto waterfront give way to residential streets inland.

North of the Queensway the housing shifts to post-war semis and apartment clusters around Kipling and Islington, and the shared-wall construction creates its own set of problems.

Redeveloped lakeshore and rail-side industrial land left old foundations, abandoned drains, and compacted fill that still harbour nests. Those legacy features sit underneath current residential and commercial lots across the south of the district.

Semis and row houses share party walls and connected rooflines from Mimico through Alderwood. When one unit is treated and the neighbour isn't, rodents cross over, so coordinated treatment across the party line is the norm.
