It's not bad luck — it's your zip code. Tilly sits in a hot, humid climate blanketed by pine forest, typical of the Gulf Coastal Plain region of south Arkansas. Much of the housing here is older wood-frame construction, consistent with the region's long history as a timber-producing area. That's exactly what fire ants, mosquitoes, ticks, wood-boring beetles, spiders, subterranean termites, 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. A mix of older rural homes surrounded by pine timberland and modest in-town housing, with wood-frame construction common throughout. 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.
