Why Milford Homes Need Chigger Control
Chiggers are particularly problematic in Milford due to its low elevation of 16 feet and high humidity, which keep the soil moist and ideal for mite larvae. The city’s rural urban density means more unmaintained brush and grassy fields near homes, especially along the Mispillion River, where chigger populations explode in summer. For Milford residents, this translates to a higher risk of bites during everyday activities like gardening or walking pets.
