Local Pest Challenges

Why Allentown Has Significant Mosquito & Tick Activity:

• Crosswicks Creek and tributaries - Major waterways provide massive breeding grounds for multiple mosquito species
• Agricultural land use - Farm ponds, irrigation systems, livestock water troughs create countless mosquito breeding sites
• Large property sizes - Many properties exceed one acre, providing extensive habitat for both mosquitoes and ticks
• Wooded borders and tree lines - Most properties border wooded areas that serve as tick habitat and mosquito resting sites
• High deer population - Rural Allentown has significant deer that serve as primary hosts for deer ticks (Lyme disease carriers)
• Wildlife corridors - Abundant wildlife (raccoons, opossums, groundhogs, foxes) all serve as tick hosts
• Pastures and fields - Open grassy areas adjacent to woods create perfect tick habitat
• Historic structures - Older barns and outbuildings often have standing water and poor drainage
• Limited municipal mosquito control - Rural character means property owners bear more responsibility for pest management

Common Allentown Pest Problems We Treat:

• Freshwater Floodwater Mosquitoes - Breed in temporary standing water after rain, aggressive biters active dusk through dawn
• Asian Tiger Mosquitoes - Aggressive daytime biters that breed in small containers around properties
• Northern House Mosquitoes - Known carriers of West Nile Virus, most active at dusk and dawn
• Deer Ticks (Blacklegged Ticks) - Primary carrier of Lyme disease, extremely common in rural Allentown
• American Dog Ticks - Large ticks found in grassy areas and fields, can transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever
• Lone Star Ticks - Increasingly common, very aggressive, can trigger alpha-gal syndrome (red meat allergy)

Allentown properties face unique difficulties because pests breed on agricultural land, in wooded areas, and in water sources that individual homeowners can't control. Professional barrier treatment is essential for enjoying outdoor spaces in Allentown.
