Common Pests in Concord, NC
Pest Control
More on pests in this area
Concord, NC, experiences hot, humid summers that are attractive to many pests. For example, mosquitoes are particularly troublesome and thrive in the moist environment. The pests carry the West Nile and Zika viruses, which they can transmit to humans while feeding. Their bites can leave itchy, red welts that may become infected if not treated properly. Ticks are another bloodthirsty pest found in Concord. They are able to latch onto hosts unnoticed and spend several days feeding. They can also spread Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases.
The muggy weather in Concord is also attractive to structural pests like termites and carpenter ants. Subterranean termites can go undetected for years and cause severe levels of damage before homeowners even know their house is infested. These pests feed on structural wood and take it back to their nearby underground colony. Carpenter ants also burrow into wood, but they chew the wood to nest in it rather than consume it. Their nesting habits weaken the structural integrity of infested homes.
