Pest control in Dade City deals with country pests close to town. Cattle pasture, citrus and big live oaks ring the city, so fire ant mounds show up in yards and roof rats travel through oak limbs to reach roofs.
Many homes near the Historic Pasco County Courthouse are older wood-frame houses on piers. Those homes need regular termite checks, since eastern subterranean termites reach sills and floor joists from damp soil under the house.
The rolling hills east of US 301 hold more rain runoff than flat Gulf towns. After heavy summer storms, ants and palmetto bugs move from soaked ground into kitchens and garages.
