Where they get in around Bishop Hill
Most of Bishop Hill went up before 1950, and homes that old fail in the same few places. A The water line where it comes through the foundation wall. B A porch or a step that has settled away from the house. C The sill plate where old framing meets stone or block.
Those openings are small, which is why they get missed: a mouse needs about a quarter of an inch, and an ant needs far less. A technician starts there rather than at the baseboards, because treating what you can see does nothing about the way in.
What to say when you call
- →What you saw and where in the home it turned up. A trail on a counter and one insect in a bathroom are different problems.
- →When it started, and whether it is getting worse.
- →What the ground around the house looks like — firewood, mulch beds, a downspout that soaks one corner. The outside inspection starts there.
- →Your address, so the call goes to a technician covering Henry County.

What happens after the call
You say what you have seen and where in the home it turned up. That is usually enough to narrow it down on the phone.
A technician then inspects the property — inside, around the outside, and in the crawl space or attic where the sign usually starts. Identification comes before treatment, and the treatment is quoted before it begins.
