Pest control built for Longwood
Longwood is a dense residential neighbourhood of pre-war and mid-century apartment buildings along Southern Boulevard and Longwood Avenue — interconnected basements, centralised trash rooms and ageing plumbing risers drive heavy mouse, rat and German-cockroach pressure throughout the building stock.
The neighbourhood's location between the Hunts Point food distribution complex and the residential density of Tremont means rodent pressure from commercial food-handling sources is channelled into the residential street grid through shared infrastructure.
High residential turnover and apartment density make bed bug spread between units a persistent concern; ant pressure is more common in the lower floors of older buildings where foundation cracks allow outdoor access.
