Providers plan their work county by county, and Orange County — 398 square miles inside the Durham–Chapel Hill metro — is planned around the same weather and housing forces as the rest of the metro, felt at this county's own addresses.
Orange 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.
The county's vital statistics: 398 square miles (the 63rd largest of 100 in North Carolina), centred at 36.06° N, 79.12° W, and one of the 4 counties composing the Durham–Chapel Hill metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under North Carolina rules.
From Durham, Orange County lies about 4 miles to the west. Counties are not equal shares of a metro: at 398 square miles, Orange County accounts for around 23% 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 Orange County's blend of the two is its own.
