It's not bad luck — it's your zip code. Alabama has a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers, mild winters, and high annual rainfall, favoring year-round pest activity. Significant stock of older, historic homes (some pre-Civil War) alongside mid-century and newer residential construction. That's exactly what termites, fire ants, cockroaches, mosquitoes, ticks, and carpenter ants need to get inside. Waiting won't fix it. It just gives them more time to spread.
A one-size-fits-all spray doesn't cut it here. Broader mix of housing ages and types, including historic in-town homes, mid-century neighborhoods, and newer construction on the city's edges. So before we write a treatment plan, we inspect first. Water, tree cover, open land, building age — it all factors in. You get a real diagnosis, not a guess.
