San Francisco County is one of the counties that make up the San Francisco–Oakland–Fremont metro. Across its roughly 47 square miles, the pest story is the regional story told at county scale.
In San Francisco County the pattern is set overhead and underfoot: dry summers, mild wet winters and year-round moderate temperatures pests can work with above, and housing that gives those pests their harbourage below. Argentine ants and drywood termites are where the two meet most often.
San Francisco County — 47 square miles, centre near 37.73° N, 123.03° W, and the 58th largest of the state's 58 counties by land — belongs to the San Francisco–Oakland–Fremont metro alongside 4 other counties. Local providers cover it from that metro, licensed under California rules.
There is a useful way to locate San Francisco County in the metro's pest geography: about 34 miles west of San Francisco, holding roughly 2% of the metro counties' combined land area. One of the metro's more compact counties.
