South Kensington is a suburb of D.C. built along the banks of the Rock Creek Watershed, which contributes to the high moisture levels that sustain local populations of termites, rodents, and mosquitoes. 

A majority of homes were built in the postwar decades, with Cape Cods, split-levels, and colonial-style homes built directly adjacent to the Rock Creek tributary, where fleas and ticks commonly infest backyards, clinging to the backs of squirrels and white-tailed deer. 

These parasites are primary vectors for diseases, such as Lyme Disease–Montgomery County has one of the highest incidences of Lyme Disease in the state–and alpha-gal syndrome, which is becoming increasingly common in Maryland

Even homes located more toward the center of town, outside of the Rock Creek tributary and Kensington Branch of the Potomac River, are still at risk for several common seasonal pests, including subterranean termites. Many mid-century homes contain wood sill plates, floor joists, and stair carriages located near the soil level, where they become wet during storms and invite wood-destroying insects like termites and carpenter ants.  

When South Kensington residents need protection against pests that spread disease in their backyard or contaminate food in their home, they turn to the QualityPro experts at Pest Czar. Using EPA-certified products and year-round monitoring plans, our technicians address infestations at their source and build prevention programs suited to the Rock Creek corridor’s seasonal pest cycles.
