Pest Control in Thorncliffe & Greenview (T2K)
Thorncliffe is an established NE Calgary community built in the 1970s, featuring mature trees and a residential-commercial border with the Greenview industrial area and Deerfoot Industrial corridor.
The residential-industrial border creates pest movement patterns, as rodents and insects from commercial areas move into Thorncliffe homes, especially those bordering the industrial zone.
Thorncliffe's 1970s homes have 50 years of settling, with aging seals and foundation gaps that allow mice entry, while mature neighborhood trees provide squirrels with roof access to attics.
