Have you had your home's crawl space cleaned out?
Rodents have made my home's crawl space their home. It's been raining so much that I guess the ivy on the hillsides aren't enough to keep them dry so they've found their way under my house. I have hundreds of rat poop underneath there and I swear I can smell the little fuchers. Anyway, I was wondering if you've ever had your crawl space professionally cleaned out.
I'm looking into getting the area rodent and moisture proofed. There are outfits that come in and close up all holes leading outside, sanitize the area and then do a complete clean out. Afterwards they'll lay down a moisture barrier that is supposedly thick enough and rip proof so that it can be walked upon. That's good since my crawl space is about 5 foot tall and I'd like to use it for extra storage.
Has anyone ever used this service or have cleaned out your crawl space yourselves? I don't think I'd want to do the job myself because it's nasty down there so I'm willing to stimulate the economy a bit. If you hired out, was it worth the money or did pests and smell come back?
