Providers plan their work county by county, and Delaware County — 184 square miles inside the Philadelphia–Camden–Wilmington metro — is planned around the same weather and housing forces as the rest of the metro, felt at this county's own addresses.
The county's homes sit in midatlantic country, where humid summers and cold winters that swing pressure between termites, ticks and overwintering invaders. The pests that follow from that — subterranean termites, ticks and carpenter ants above all — are the ones local providers spend their year on in Delaware County.
On the map, Delaware County is 184 square miles of Pennsylvania — the 65th largest county in the state by land area on Census figures — with its centre near 39.92° N, 75.40° W. The Philadelphia–Camden–Wilmington metro counts 11 counties, and providers serve this one from that metro under Pennsylvania licensing.
From Philadelphia, Delaware County lies about 5 miles to the northwest. Counties are not equal shares of a metro: at 184 square miles, Delaware County accounts for around 4% of the total county land in this one, and it is one of the metro's more compact counties. 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 Delaware County's blend of the two is its own.
