Local Context

Why South Burlington Homes Need Chigger Control

Chiggers are particularly bad in South Burlington because our 70% humidity and 331-foot elevation create ideal breeding grounds in the suburban landscape. The dense vegetation around homes near UVM Medical Center and Lake Champlain provides perfect habitat for chigger larvae to latch onto unsuspecting residents. South Burlington's mix of wooded lots and manicured lawns means chiggers thrive right where you live and play.

βœ“One thing most South Burlington homeowners don't realize is that chiggers are most active in the late afternoon when ground temperatures hit 77-86Β°Fβ€”which happens frequently here from June through August. Our local technicians have mapped chigger hot spots across the city, including near the Winooski River corridor and along the Burlington bike path edges, so we know exactly where to focus treatments.

Wear long pants and use DEET repellent when hiking or gardening in South Burlington's humid summer conditions, especially after rain.
