It's not bad luck — it's your zip code. Pope sits in a hot, humid Delta climate where high water tables and flat terrain keep moisture-driven pest pressure elevated most of the year. Older, mid-century construction is common here, and crawl-space foundations are nearly universal given the flat Delta terrain. That's exactly what ticks, subterranean termites, fire ants, mosquitoes, German cockroaches, and field mice 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. A mix of older wood-frame farmhouses on flat Delta farmland and modest ranch homes in small town centers, many with crawl spaces vulnerable to moisture. 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.
