Millipede & Centipede Control in Jacksonville, FL

Millipede & Centipede Control built for Jacksonville homes

Jacksonville's sandy, poorly drained soils create conditions that millipedes thrive in. These moisture-dependent arthropods shelter in decaying leaf litter, mulch and soil, and when June through September's heavy rainfall saturates the ground across Duval County's nearly level terrain, millipedes move in large numbers toward foundations, garages and ground-level entry points seeking drier refuge. Late summer into fall often brings the densest encounters around exterior walls and garage floors. When December through February cold snaps arrive, any millipedes already inside wall voids and storage spaces stay put rather than dying off, meaning pressure can carry through winter. Other pests covered under the program share this seasonal pattern. Because Jacksonville's wet season reliably repeats this cycle every year, a year-round home program is the practical way to keep millipede activity from building up each time the rain returns.
