Why Gold Hill Properties Face Unique Pest Pressure
Gold Hill’s historic district is full of restored older buildings, many with original wood framing that’s more vulnerable to termites and other wood-destroying pests than newer construction. The village’s proximity to the Yadkin River and the wooded corridor along the Rail Trail also means more moisture and cover for mosquitoes, ants, and spiders, especially on properties bordering the trail or backing up to undeveloped land. And because Gold Hill has such a rural, spread-out footprint compared to nearby Salisbury, rodents looking for shelter in barns, sheds, and older outbuildings are a more frequent concern here than in denser neighborhoods. Our technicians tailor treatment to whichever of these factors apply to your property.
