Why Charleston Homes Need Chigger Control
Chiggers are particularly problematic in Charleston because our high humidity and elevation of 597 feet create moist, shaded environments where they flourish, especially along the Kanawha River and in densely vegetated areas. The urban density of Charleston means homes are close together, allowing chiggers to spread quickly from lawns to gardens to parks, making professional intervention essential. With our average winter lows of 26°F not killing off all chigger populations, they return each spring with a vengeance, targeting Charleston residents who spend time outdoors.

Charleston Chigger Prevention Tips
Keep your Charleston lawn mowed short and remove tall weeds, as chiggers love the humid cover provided by overgrown grass near the Kanawha River. Create a dry barrier around your property by trimming back shrubs and trees to reduce shade and humidity, which chiggers need to survive in Charleston's climate. Wear long pants and apply repellent when hiking or gardening in Charleston's wooded areas, especially after rain when chigger activity peaks.
