Due to its coastal setting, Wilmington is particularly vulnerable to high mosquito populations, especially in marshy areas and near standing water. Subterranean termites are a significant concern, as the region’s moisture-rich soil provides the ideal habitat for destructive colonies. Palmetto bugs, a large species of cockroach, can be frequently found in homes and businesses, seeking cool, damp areas for shelter. Additionally, Wilmington’s waterfront location makes it a hotspot for silverfish, which thrive in humid environments and damage paper, clothing, and household goods. Rodents such as roof rats are often found nesting in attics, particularly in homes close to wooded areas or waterways.
