Providers plan their work county by county, and Wayne County — 506 square miles inside the Huntington–Ashland metro — is planned around the same weather and housing forces as the rest of the metro, felt at this county's own addresses.
In Wayne 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.
The county's vital statistics: 506 square miles (the 15th largest of 55 in West Virginia), centred at 38.14° N, 82.42° W, and one of the 8 counties composing the Huntington–Ashland metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under West Virginia rules.
There is a useful way to locate Wayne County in the metro's pest geography: about 18 miles southeast of Huntington, holding roughly 17% of the metro counties' combined land area. A mid-sized county for this metro. The consequence shows up in the work itself — properties here draw their pest pressure from both directions, the metro's and the countryside's, and a provider who treats Wayne County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.
