PRATTVILLE ยท AUTAUGA COUNTY, AL
Prattville is the seat of Autauga County and one of the most rapidly growing cities in central Alabama. As the city has expanded westward from its historic core along Autauga Creek, it's brought thousands of new homes into territory that was recently farmland and pine forest โ and the pests that come with that transition.

Growth comes with pest pressure. Prattville's expansion has pushed residential development into areas adjacent to Autauga Creek and its floodplain tributaries โ water features that sustain mosquito populations through the entire warm season. The newer subdivisions that stretch west and north of downtown Prattville sit in terrain that feeds into this watershed, and residents in these areas report significant mosquito issues during summer months.
The historic core of Prattville โ the area around Autauga Creek and the old mill sites โ has its own pest character. Older homes, established trees, and proximity to water create conditions where termites, carpenter ants, and moisture-associated pests are more prevalent than in newer construction.
Fire ants are ubiquitous across Prattville, from the manicured lawns of newer subdivisions to the larger lots in older neighborhoods. Autauga County's clay soils and warm climate support dense fire ant populations that require more than mound treatments to manage โ broadcast bait programs that target the entire population give far better results.
Prattville's proximity to Autauga Creek and its tributaries means mosquito season is longer and more intense than in drier areas. We time treatments through the season to maintain suppression.
Broadcast bait treatments reach fire ant colonies across your entire yard โ not just the visible mounds, which represent only a portion of colony activity.
Both older homes and newer construction in Prattville benefit from regular termite inspection. Alabama's termite pressure doesn't spare any neighborhood or age of home.
Indoor pests like German cockroaches and ants don't follow seasons. We maintain protection throughout the year with treatments scheduled around Prattville's pest activity patterns.
