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. Housing stock skews older, with many homes built mid-20th century, typical of small rural towns. 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. Mix of older in-town frame homes and rural mobile homes typical of small south-central Alabama towns. 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.
