The Washington–Arlington–Alexandria metro spreads across several counties, and Stafford County — about 268 square miles of Virginia — carries its full share of the region's pest pressure.
In Stafford County the pattern is set overhead and underfoot: humid summers and cold winters that swing pressure between termites, ticks and overwintering invaders above, and housing that gives those pests their harbourage below. subterranean termites and ticks are where the two meet most often.
