It's not bad luck — it's your zip code. Urbanna sits in a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and mild winters, moderated by proximity to the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic. This region has some of the oldest continuously settled towns in the state, alongside significant modern coastal growth. That's exactly what fire ants, ticks, subterranean termites, carpenter ants, mosquitoes, and German cockroaches 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. Crawl-space and slab construction is common near the coast, given the high water table typical of Tidewater Virginia. 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.
