Start a pest map of the Hickory–Lenoir–Morganton metro and Caldwell County is one of its pieces: 472 square miles where the metro's climate lands on this county's own mix of subdivisions, older streets and open ground.
In Caldwell County the pattern is set overhead and underfoot: hot humid summers, heavy rain and mild winters in classic termite-and-ant country above, and housing that gives those pests their harbourage below. subterranean termites and mosquitoes are where the two meet most often.
The county's vital statistics: 472 square miles (the 48th largest of 100 in North Carolina), centred at 35.97° N, 81.51° W, and one of the 4 counties composing the Hickory–Lenoir–Morganton metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under North Carolina rules.
There is a useful way to locate Caldwell County in the metro's pest geography: about 12 miles northwest of Hickory, holding roughly 29% 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 Caldwell County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.
