Riverbank’s unique blend of rural and urban settings makes it an ideal habitat for numerous pests:

​

• Ants: These persistent pests often infiltrate homes, kitchens, and businesses in search of food and water, especially during the warmer months.

​​

• Rodents: Mice and rats frequently invade homes, warehouses, and agricultural properties, causing structural damage and spreading diseases.

​​

• Termites: The area’s older buildings and wooden structures are at risk for termite infestations, which can cause extensive damage before being detected.

​​

• Cockroaches: Found in kitchens, restaurants, and food-related businesses, cockroaches pose significant health risks by spreading bacteria and contaminating surfaces.

​​

• Spiders: While most spiders are harmless, venomous species like the black widow can be found in basements, garages, and other dark, undisturbed areas.

​​

• Mosquitoes: The nearby river and warm climate create the perfect conditions for mosquitoes, which can ruin outdoor activities and spread diseases like West Nile virus.
