Pest pressure in Georgia
Georgia's climate is humid subtropical, with long warm summers and mild winters. Georgia's long warm season keeps termites, mosquitoes and ants active from March through November. That climate profile is what drives the specific pest pressure GA homeowners deal with — and it's the reason pest control programs in Georgia look different than they do in colder northern states.
The biggest pest issues in Georgia
Eastern subterranean termites
Subterranean termites are present in every Georgia county. The state has documented Formosan termite activity in coastal areas including Savannah.
Fire ants
Imported red fire ants are established across all 159 counties. Multiple-queen colonies make them especially hard to control with single-mound treatments.
Asian tiger mosquitoes
Aedes albopictus is now the dominant biting mosquito in metro Atlanta — aggressive day-biters that breed in tiny pockets of standing water.
Local pest control by metro area
- Atlanta — Termite and mosquito calls dominate; rodent calls spike in late fall.
- Savannah — Coastal humidity drives heavy termite and roach pressure, including Formosan activity.
- Augusta — Fire ants and subterranean termites are the two largest pest categories.
- Columbus — Mosquito pressure is highest along the Chattahoochee corridor.
Licensing & regulation in Georgia: Georgia pest control operators must be licensed under the Georgia Department of Agriculture's Structural Pest Control Section.
