The Lancaster metro spreads across several counties, and Lancaster County — about 944 square miles of Pennsylvania — carries its full share of the region's pest pressure.
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 Lancaster County.
