Local Context

Why Pierre Homes Need Chigger Control

Chiggers are particularly bad in Pierre due to our 63% humidity and elevation of 1,444 feet, which create ideal conditions for their larvae to hatch and latch onto hosts. The rural urban density means more undeveloped land and wildlife habitats, giving chiggers plenty of places to breed near homes. Pierre's long, humid summers extend the chigger season, making professional treatment essential for relief.

One thing many Pierre homeowners don't realize is that chiggers are most active near the Missouri River floodplain, where the higher humidity and dense vegetation create perfect breeding grounds. We've seen infestations spike after wet springs, so early treatment in May can prevent problems all summer.
