Why Reno Homes Need Chigger Control
Chiggers are particularly bad in Reno because our low humidity (averaging 42%) and urban density create ideal habitats in parks, golf courses, and residential lawns. The combination of summer highs hitting 91°F and winter lows around 23°F allows chiggers to survive year-round, especially in the grassy margins near the Truckee River and downtown areas. Reno homeowners with median home values of $530,000 often invest in landscaping, which can inadvertently harbor these pests if not treated properly.

Reno Chigger Prevention Tips
Keep your grass mowed to 3 inches or less in Reno's dry climate to reduce chigger hiding spots in the thatch layer. Create a 3-foot barrier of gravel or wood chips between your lawn and natural areas, which is especially effective in Reno's urban-wildland interface. Water your lawn deeply but infrequently to avoid the damp soil that chiggers love, given our average humidity of just 42%.

Chigger Control Cost in Reno
One thing most Reno residents don't realize is that chiggers are most active in the 'shoulder seasons'—late spring and early fall—when our temperatures hover between 60°F and 80°F, perfect for their lifecycle. I've seen infestations spike near the UNR campus and along the Virginia Street corridor, where irrigated lawns meet natural desert scrub.
