Few pest problems strike as much dread in homeowners as bed bugs. These tiny, resilient insects have made a remarkable comeback in recent decades, affecting homes across all socioeconomic levels throughout North Carolina. Their ability to hide in the smallest cracks, reproduce rapidly, and resist many DIY treatments makes them particularly challenging to eliminate.
Owning a vacation home in North Carolina offers a wonderful escape, whether it's a coastal retreat, a mountain cabin, or a lakeside getaway. However, these seasonal properties face unique pest challenges when left unoccupied. Vacant homes become particularly vulnerable to unwanted visitors, from destructive termites to opportunistic rodents and everything in between.
Most homeowners focus on visible issues like peeling paint or cracked foundations, but moisture problems often lurk unseen behind walls, under floors, and in crawl spaces.

Understanding how moisture affects your home is the first step toward effective prevention and remediation.

At Neuse Termite and Pest Control, we understand that effective mosquito control is essential for enjoying your outdoor spaces and protecting your family throughout the summer months.
Termites cause an estimated $5 billion in property damage annually across the United States, with the average termite damage repair costing homeowners thousands of dollars. What makes these silent destroyers particularly dangerous is their ability to enter homes through the tiniest openings and remain undetected for years while causing extensive structural damage.
