Rodent Control in Midtown Toronto

Midtown runs along the Yonge Street spine from Davisville up through Yonge-Eglinton, with Mount Pleasant Cemetery and the Chaplin Estates streets setting the character of the district.

The housing is a mix of 1910s-1930s brick houses on the side streets and a growing cluster of condo towers concentrated around the Yonge-Eglinton intersection.

The 1910s-1930s brick houses on the side streets sit on rubble or block foundations with old clay drain lines. Cracked drain pipes and aged foundations give rodents a direct route in from the sewer and surrounding soil, and sealing those entry points becomes part of clearing the infestation rather than a step that follows the trapping.

Around Yonge-Eglinton, condo towers add a vertical dimension. Garbage chutes, risers and parking garages let a ground-floor population reach the upper floors, and a source on one level can spread through the shared structure above.
