Exterminator in Mount Pleasant, SC

Recurring plans start at $49 a month and cover more than fifty pests. One-off treatment is priced by pest and property, and termite, mosquito and flea-and-tick work is quoted separately. Because the housing here spans five decades, the inspection genuinely sets the price. Call 855-800-8469.

Not any more — that is a 2010 figure that still circulates. Census QuickFacts puts the 2020 population at 92,799, which makes it the sixth-largest municipality in the state. It was fourth-largest in 2010 with 67,843.

Yes. Clemson’s county tracking lists Charleston County among the sixteen with documented colonies and Clemson HGIC dates the introduction in Charleston to the mid-1950s. Unlike the Upstate, this is not a case of the pitch overstating the risk — though Clemson still notes a listed county does not mean uniform presence, so an inspection settles your own property.

Quite possibly. Under the Town of Mount Pleasant’s tree protection rules residential trees are protected at 16 inches diameter and pines at 24 inches, with a named exemption list, and historic trees at 24 inches or more need an arborist report or a variance. So treat the colony first and apply second — disturbing an untreated colony can push it toward the house while you wait.

Because it is habitat, not just scenery. a USDA Forest Service co-authored survey around Charleston found thirty-seven percent of surveyed forest patches around Charleston infested, with oaks and maples most damaged, and Formosans hollow living trunks from the heartwood outward. A tree can look sound from the street and be largely empty.

The age of the pre-construction soil treatment, and anything built since that bridges it — a deck footing, a raised bed, a trenched utility line or lumber stored against a wall. On that cohort those are the findings we actually make.

Yes, and they have their own pages because they are genuinely different problems — a barrier island that is mostly rented, and an island that is accreting new land under a conservation deed. Both are linked above.

Not every exterminator can. South Carolina’s Official Wood Infestation Report, form SC 1099 and universally called the CL-100, may only be issued by an inspector licensed in the wood-destroying organism category, Category 7A, under Clemson University’s Department of Pesticide Regulation. Most lenders ask for one, which is why it appears in most residential transactions here. It covers wood-destroying insects and wood-destroying fungi, but the fungi portion applies only below the first main living-area floor, so your crawl space and substructure are in scope while siding and fascia are not. Ask any company you call whether the person doing your inspection holds 7A, not merely whether the company does pest control.

No, and this is the most common misunderstanding in a Lowcountry closing. The regulation states the report “is not a warranty against future infestation, nor does it place any obligation for the correction of reported damage or infestation upon the applicator or business issuing the report.” Any duty to repair comes from your purchase contract or your lender’s conditions, not from the state. You will also hear that a CL-100 is valid for 30 days; no validity period appears anywhere in the regulation, so treat that as lender or contract practice and confirm the window with your lender. One local wrinkle worth expecting: excessive moisture has a numeric definition, wood at or above 20% or standing water in the crawl space, and in the older parts of Mount Pleasant that finding often traces back to drainage rather than to any insect.

We cover the whole town from the Old Village out to Carolina Park and Park West, plus Isle of Palms, Sullivan’s Island and Daniel Island. Most calls get a next-day appointment. Call 855-800-8469.
