Susquehanna County sits at the northern edge of Pennsylvania, bordering New York and encompassing one of the state’s largest rural regions.

Established in 1810 and named after the Susquehanna River, the county grew rapidly during the 19th century thanks to lumber production, dairy farming, and the expansion of the Delaware & Hudson Railroad.

Its forested hills, cold springs, and glacial lakes gave rise to dozens of small boroughs and farming communities that still retain their historic character today.

The area is also home to several unique landmarks: Salt Springs State Park, with its natural mineral formations; the Starrucca Viaduct, one of the oldest and largest stone-arch railroad bridges in the United States; and the Montrose Historic District, filled with 19th-century architecture around a classic courthouse green.

These historic sites, paired with rugged terrain and vast woodlands, make Susquehanna County unlike anywhere else in NEPA.

But the same natural beauty and rural charm create ideal conditions for pests. Older farmhouses with hand-laid stone foundations, century-old barns, secluded cabins, and densely wooded lots make perfect habitats for rodents, bats, carpenter ants, cluster flies, and wildlife seeking shelter.

The county’s colder winters and warm, humid summers also drive insects and small animals indoors, especially in homes built long before modern insulation or pest-proofing standards.
