Start a pest map of the Charlotte–Concord–Gastonia metro and Gaston County is one of its pieces: 356 square miles where the metro's climate lands on this county's own mix of subdivisions, older streets and open ground.
Gaston County's pest calendar is the regional one with a local accent: hot humid summers, heavy rain and mild winters in classic termite-and-ant country, and the work concentrates on subterranean termites first, mosquitoes second, and red imported fire ants never far behind.
Gaston County — 356 square miles, centre near 35.29° N, 81.18° W, and the 73rd largest of the state's 100 counties by land — belongs to the Charlotte–Concord–Gastonia metro alongside 10 other counties. Local providers cover it from that metro, licensed under North Carolina rules.
There is a useful way to locate Gaston County in the metro's pest geography: about 22 miles west of Charlotte, holding roughly 6% 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 Gaston County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.
