The Chicago–Naperville–Elgin metro spreads across several counties, and Kendall County — about 320 square miles of Illinois — carries its full share of the region's pest pressure.
Kendall County's pest calendar is the regional one with a local accent: hot humid summers and deep-freeze winters that push pests indoors in waves, and the work concentrates on carpenter ants first, overwintering pests second, and house mice never far behind.
The county's vital statistics: 320 square miles (the 89th largest of 102 in Illinois), centred at 41.59° N, 88.43° W, and one of the 13 counties composing the Chicago–Naperville–Elgin metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under Illinois rules.
The numbers that frame Kendall County: 320 square miles, about 5% of the metro's county land, centred roughly 27 miles west of Chicago. A mid-sized county for this metro. Local providers plan around exactly this kind of framing, because the distance from the core predicts which problems arrive first in spring, which linger latest in autumn, and how the county's housing — its age, its spacing, its tree cover — translates weather into pest calls.
