At 100% of the metro's total county land area, Ector County is a mid-sized county for this metro — and pest work here follows the settlement pattern: the closer a property sits to the metro's wooded and watered edges, the more its pressure resembles the countryside's; the closer to the core, the more it resembles the city's. Providers read the address before they read the pest, because in Ector County the same species behaves differently at the two ends of that spectrum.
