The high humidity and proximity to marshlands make Charleston particularly prone to mosquito infestations, especially in the summer months. Termites are a significant concern, with the warm and damp climate allowing subterranean termites to cause extensive damage to wooden structures. Palmetto bugs, a large species of cockroach, are frequently found in homes and businesses, seeking shelter in cool, damp areas. Additionally, Charleston’s coastal environment makes it a hotspot for fabric pests like silverfish and certain species of moths, which thrive in humid conditions and can damage books, fabrics, and other stored goods. Rodents, such as roof rats, are often found nesting in attics and crawl spaces, particularly in historic homes and waterfront properties.
