Providers plan their work county by county, and Passaic County — 186 square miles inside the New York–Newark–Jersey City metro — is planned around the same weather and housing forces as the rest of the metro, felt at this county's own addresses.
Read Passaic County's pest list off its geography: four full seasons — summer ticks and carpenter ants, fall invasions, winter rodent pressure, and the result is a calendar dominated by carpenter ants, ticks and house mice.
On the map, Passaic County is 186 square miles of New Jersey — the 18th largest county in the state by land area on Census figures — with its centre near 41.04° N, 74.30° W. The New York–Newark–Jersey City metro counts 22 counties, and providers serve this one from that metro under New Jersey licensing.
There is a useful way to locate Passaic County in the metro's pest geography: about 22 miles northwest of New York, holding roughly 3% 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 Passaic County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.

Within the same metro, Hudson County (46 sq mi) lies about 24 miles to the southeast; Hunterdon County (428 sq mi) lies about 46 miles to the southwest; Kings County (69 sq mi) lies about 33 miles to the southeast; Middlesex County (309 sq mi) lies about 42 miles to the south; Monmouth County (468 sq mi) lies about 52 miles to the south; Morris County (461 sq mi) lies about 18 miles to the southwest; Nassau County (285 sq mi) lies about 43 miles to the southeast; New York County (23 sq mi) lies about 25 miles to the southeast — each with its own county page in this index, because pest pressure is read county by county even when the metro is shared.
The Poughkeepsie, NY metro centre is about 40 miles to the north; the Kingston, NY metro centre is about 63 miles to the north; the Albany, NY metro centre is about 120 miles to the north. Those distances are the county's real geography, and pest work respects it: providers cross metro lines on their routes every week, and an address near Passaic County's edge can sit closer to a neighbouring metro's crews than to its own.
