Pest pressure in Maryland
Maryland's climate is humid subtropical with significant maritime influence. Maryland's coastal humidity drives heavy termite, mosquito and ant pressure spring through fall. That climate profile is what drives the specific pest pressure MD homeowners deal with — and it's the reason pest control programs in Maryland look different than they do in colder northern states.
The biggest pest issues in Maryland
Eastern subterranean termites
Maryland has heavy termite pressure statewide; the warmer coastal counties see year-round colony activity.
Brown marmorated stink bugs
Maryland is one of the original entry points for brown marmorated stink bugs in the US — fall invasions are severe in central and western counties.
Norway rats and roof rats
Baltimore has well-documented urban rat pressure; rodent intrusion is a top citywide pest concern.
