Pest Control in Maine

Maine has spent the past decade dealing with a genuine outbreak of browntail moth, an invasive caterpillar first introduced to New England from Europe more than a century ago that has expanded well beyond its old midcoast stronghold since 2015, according to tracking by the University of Maine Cooperative Extension and the Maine Forest Service. Its caterpillars carry tiny barbed hairs that break off and drift on the wind, causing a poison ivy like skin rash and respiratory irritation that makes outdoor yard work genuinely risky in affected areas during late spring and early summer. Beyond the moth, Maine's woods and brushy edges support healthy populations of deer ticks, and the risk of tick borne illness climbs through the warmer months in the same wooded, overgrown areas where browntail moth nests tend to cluster. Carpenter ants are common in the state's heavily forested landscape as well, drawn to the moisture damaged wood found in older homes and camps throughout Maine's long, damp winters.
