Why Shelton Homes Need Chigger Control
Chiggers are particularly bad in Shelton because of the high humidity (68%) and dense suburban landscape, which creates ideal breeding grounds in lawns and gardens. The city's elevation of 98 feet and proximity to the Housatonic River keep moisture levels high, allowing chigger populations to explode during warm months. Shelton homeowners often find chiggers in overgrown grass and leaf litter, making professional treatment essential for relief.
