Most housing in Williamson County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 4%, but sheds, garages and attics still go unvisited for months and can hold rodent buildup. A typical July high of 96 degrees in Leander makes attics very hot, and heat dries out droppings and nests so dust rises easily when disturbed.
