Local Context

Why Dubuque Homes Need Chigger Control

Chiggers thrive in Dubuque's high humidity of 72% and lush vegetation along the bluffs, where tall grass and wooded edges provide perfect habitats. With a median home value of $185,000, many Dubuque properties feature spacious yards that border these natural areas, increasing exposure to chigger infestations during warm months.

One thing many Dubuque homeowners don't realize is that chiggers are most active along the bluffs and riverbanks after a rain, when humidity spikes above 75%—our treatments are timed to break their life cycle right when they emerge.
