Why Rat Control Is a Particular Issue in Port Moody
Burrard Inlet and the Rocky Point inlet waterway are Norway rat corridors in Port Moody. The tidal inlet provides waterway connectivity between the larger rat populations of the Burrard Inlet system and Port Moody's residential blocks in Pleasantside and Murray Hill. Properties near the shoreline and the inlet trail system see above-average Norway rat pressure from the waterway-connected population.
Pleasantside and College Park's older 1960s to 1980s homes with original crawl-space construction have the failing vent mesh and sill-plate settlement gaps that Norway rats use for denning and interior access. The combination of Burrard Inlet waterway pressure and older building envelope conditions creates the most consistent residential rat workload in Port Moody.
Moody Centre commercial operations and Ioco Road industrial activity add commercial rat pressure in the city's core commercial areas.
