Cary’s rapid growth over the past 40 years means a large proportion of its housing stock was built in the 1980s and 1990s — construction era associated with wood-frame slab foundations that are vulnerable to subterranean termites. The town’s extensive greenway system and Jordan Lake watershed proximity sustain heavy mosquito populations through summer.

Why Pest Pressure Is Elevated in Cary

Cary sits in USDA Hardiness Zone 7a, with approximately 40 freeze days per year and 48 inches of annual rainfall. Cary’s median household income of $98,474 reflects a community with significant investment in residential property — making professional pest control a priority. The housing stock includes median home age 73 years in older sections; significant construction from 1980s–2000s in Preston, MacGregor Downs, and Kildaire Farm areas.

Neighborhoods We Serve in Cary

CritterGetters serves Cary city-wide, including Preston, MacGregor Downs, Kildaire Farm, Weston and all surrounding areas. We know Wake County’s pest patterns — the species, the seasonal timing, and the housing types that present the most vulnerability.

Common Pest Issues in Wake County

  • Termites: Cary sits directly over some of Wake County’s heaviest termite pressure zones. The 1980s–1990s construction boom produced slab-on-grade homes that termites can access through expansion joints and plumbing penetrations. Jordan Lake’s watershed moisture keeps soil conditions favorable year-round.
  • Mosquitoes: Jordan Lake and its associated wetlands influence the entire western Cary area. The American Tobacco Trail corridor is a breeding hotspot. With 48 inches of annual rainfall and minimal winter die-off in Zone 7a, mosquito season in Cary runs nearly 9 months.
  • Rodents: Cary’s mix of mature wooded lots and active commercial corridors along Walnut Street and Cary Parkway creates rodent pressure year-round. Older shopping centers and restaurant rows have documented Norway rat activity in their utility corridors.

Pest Control FAQ for Cary Residents

For most Cary and Triangle homes, quarterly treatment (every 3 months) is the standard. The Triangle’s warm, humid climate means pest pressure is active most of the year. Some pest issues — like heavy ant or roach pressure — may warrant monthly visits initially, then quarterly once the infestation is cleared.
A standard general pest control treatment targets ants, cockroaches, spiders, silverfish, earwigs, and centipedes. Specialized treatments for termites, bed bugs, rodents, mosquitoes, and stinging insects are separate service lines that require different methods and products.
All CritterGetters treatments use EPA-registered products. They’re safe for children and pets once dry — typically 45 minutes after interior application, 1–2 hours for exterior perimeter spray in wet conditions. We’ll give you specific re-entry instructions based on what was applied.
A standard quarterly treatment for a typical 2,000 sq ft home takes 30–45 minutes. First treatments or heavy infestation situations take longer — typically 60–90 minutes — because we conduct a full inspection and treat more areas.
Not necessarily. We can treat the exterior perimeter without you home. For interior treatments, we do need access. Most clients give us a lockbox code or leave a key with a neighbor. We call ahead to confirm and send a notification when we’re done.
The same certified technician handles your account on every visit — you’ll know who is coming to your home. Marcus Webb founded the company in Cary in 2009 after 20+ years as a licensed inspector. We don’t run a franchise model; every technician is a CritterGetters employee with direct accountability.
