St. Louis County pest pressure

The St. Louis metro spreads across several counties, and St. Louis County — about 508 square miles of Missouri — carries its full share of the region's pest pressure.

St. Louis 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: 508 square miles (the 77th largest of 115 in Missouri), centred at 38.64° N, 90.45° W, and one of the 15 counties composing the St. Louis metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under Missouri rules.

From St. Louis, St. Louis County lies about 9 miles to the southwest. Counties are not equal shares of a metro: at 508 square miles, St. Louis County accounts for around 6% of the total county land in this one, and it is a mid-sized county for this metro. Pest pressure tracks those proportions loosely but honestly — more open land means more wildlife and field-pest interface; tighter settlement means more of the pests of density — and St. Louis County's blend of the two is its own.
