The Omaha metro spreads across several counties, and Washington County — about 390 square miles of Nebraska — carries its full share of the region's pest pressure.
What shapes pest pressure in Washington County is the same force that shapes it across the metro: big temperature swings, wind and seasonal extremes that drive pests to structures for shelter. Expect house mice and wasps and yellowjackets to lead the call log, with crickets and earwigs close behind.
On the map, Washington County is 390 square miles of Nebraska — the 89th largest county in the state by land area on Census figures — with its centre near 41.53° N, 96.22° W. The Omaha metro counts 8 counties, and providers serve this one from that metro under Nebraska licensing.
Geography puts Washington County about 21 miles northwest of Omaha, and that position inside the metro matters more than it might seem. At 9% of the metro's total county land area, Washington County is a mid-sized county for this metro — and pest work here follows the settlement pattern: the closer a property sits to the metro's wooded and watered edges, the more its pressure resembles the countryside's; the closer to the core, the more it resembles the city's. Providers read the address before they read the pest, because in Washington County the same species behaves differently at the two ends of that spectrum.

These are Washington County's own numbers, not the metro's: land, rank and position from Census data. Washington County sits 6th of 8 in its metro by land area, roughly 21 miles northwest of Omaha — the coordinates its pest calendar is read from.
Within the same metro, Harrison County (697 sq mi) lies about 23 miles to the northeast; Mills County (437 sq mi) lies about 47 miles to the southeast; Pottawattamie County (951 sq mi) lies about 38 miles to the east; Sarpy County (238 sq mi) lies about 30 miles to the south; Saunders County (749 sq mi) lies about 31 miles to the southwest; Cass County (557 sq mi) lies about 43 miles to the south; Douglas County (327 sq mi) lies about 17 miles to the south — each with its own county page in this index, because pest pressure is read county by county even when the metro is shared.
From the centre of Washington County, the Lincoln, NE metro centre is about 61 miles to the southwest; the Sioux City, IA metro centre is about 70 miles to the north; the Des Moines, IA metro centre is about 126 miles to the east.
