Pest Control in Alabama

Alabama holds a distinct place in U.S. pest history: the imported fire ant first established itself in the country at the Port of Mobile in the 1930s, likely arriving in soil used as cargo ship ballast, before spreading across the Southeast from that single entry point. Auburn University's Cooperative Extension System has tracked the species ever since, and Alabama homeowners still deal with the ants as a near constant presence, from lawns to flower beds. The state's humid, subtropical climate does the rest of the work, keeping American cockroaches, commonly called palmetto bugs, active outdoors and prone to wandering indoors, especially along the Gulf Coast. That same coastal humidity supports Formosan subterranean termites, a more aggressive invasive termite species than the native subterranean termites found further inland, capable of building larger colonies and doing damage faster once they get into a structure. Combined with common wood destroying pests further north in the state, Alabama's pest pressure runs both statewide and coastal specific depending on where a home sits. Whatever's turning up, whether it's fire ants in the yard, roaches getting inside, or signs of termite activity around the foundation, call (844) 924-1337 to describe what you're dealing with in Alabama, and we'll discuss the service you need and how to request it.
