About Cobbham
Cobbham predates the Civil War, making it Athens' oldest surviving residential neighborhood. These antebellum and Victorian homes aren't just historic—they're irreplaceable treasures that tell the story of Athens and the South. Residents here are dedicated preservationists who understand that maintaining these homes requires expertise and care. The neighborhood's proximity to downtown and UGA makes it highly desirable and its National Register designation reflects its architectural and historical significance.
Treating pest problems in Cobbham requires more than technical skill—it requires an understanding of what's at stake. These homes survived the Civil War, the Great Depression, and more than a century of Georgia weather. They deserve pest control providers who recognize their significance and treat them accordingly.
Cobbham's age creates unique pest challenges. Construction methods from the 1800s didn't anticipate modern pest control techniques, so homes may have features that seem to invite pest problems: brick foundations with gaps, original wooden siding, and mature landscaping that's been growing for generations. Our approach addresses these challenges without damaging the historic fabric.
Moisture is a particular concern in Cobbham. These homes were built before modern moisture barriers and drainage systems. Basements, cellars and crawl spaces can develop serious mold problems if not properly managed. Our HOCL-based mold treatment is ideal for historic homes—effective against mold but safe for original materials.
Spray Squad considers it a privilege to serve Cobbham. We take the same care with your home that you do, understanding that what we're protecting goes far beyond a simple real estate investment.
