The combination of Charleston’s humid summers and cool winters makes it a hotspot for persistent pest issues. Carpenter ants are a persistent problem, targeting wooden structures and causing long-term damage. The Kanawha River and surrounding wetlands create the perfect breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Rodents, such as roof rats and field mice, are commonly found in homes and businesses, especially during colder months when they seek shelter. Termites are a year-round major concern, particularly in older wooden structures, where they silently cause extensive damage. Additionally, silverfish thrive in humid basements and attics, damaging books, paper products, and clothing. Stink bugs are another seasonal nuisance, often entering homes in large numbers during the fall to escape cooler temperatures.
