Nelson County pest pressure

Nelson County is one of the counties that make up the Louisville/Jefferson County metro. Across its roughly 419 square miles, the pest story is the regional story told at county scale.

Read Nelson County's pest list off its geography: hot humid summers, heavy rain and mild winters in classic termite-and-ant country, and the result is a calendar dominated by subterranean termites, mosquitoes and red imported fire ants.

On the map, Nelson County is 419 square miles of Kentucky — the 28th largest county in the state by land area on Census figures — with its centre near 37.80° N, 85.47° W. The Louisville/Jefferson County metro counts 12 counties, and providers serve this one from that metro under Kentucky licensing.

There is a useful way to locate Nelson County in the metro's pest geography: about 31 miles south of Louisville, holding roughly 11% of the metro counties' combined land area. A mid-sized county for this metro. The consequence shows up in the work itself — properties here draw their pest pressure from both directions, the metro's and the countryside's, and a provider who treats Nelson County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.
