Parkersburg’s proximity to the Ohio River makes it especially vulnerable to high mosquito populations in the warmer months, particularly in low-lying and marshy areas. Termites are a significant issue in older homes and structures with moisture problems, leading to costly structural damage if left unchecked. Carpenter ants are another concern, burrowing into wooden beams and furniture. During colder months, rodents such as house mice and Norway rats seek warmth inside homes and businesses, often causing damage and health concerns. Spiders, including brown recluse and black widow species, are commonly found in basements, garages, and sheds. Additionally, stink bugs invade homes in the fall, clustering around windows and doors as they seek shelter from dropping temperatures.
