Summerville Pest Control FAQs

Why are ants such a huge problem in Summerville?

Sandy soil, pine straw, and warm weather create perfect nesting conditions for fire ants and carpenter ants.

Do mosquitoes get worse during Summerville storms?

Yes. Standing water in yards, ditches, and retention areas causes mosquito bursts 48–72 hours after rain.

Is pest control necessary for new construction homes?

Absolutely. New builds still sit on natural pine forest soil full of pest activity.

Are your treatments safe for pets and kids?

Yes. Our products are family-friendly and applied with safety as the top priority.

How often should Summerville homes be serviced?

Quarterly pest control + monthly mosquito service during warm months.
