Why Berkeley needs this specifically
Berkeley homeowners near the two lake parks often choose bait stations for ongoing monitoring without disturbing park-adjacent landscaping.
Mixed brick-veneer-cottage and wood-frame-bungalow construction from this era, plus proximity to two lake parks, brings a ground-moisture consideration similar to Sloan’s Lake, though on a smaller scale.
