Wyoming County is home to the Endless Mountains and features the North Branch of the Susquehanna River, as well as fertile valleys stretching from Tunkhannock to Meshoppen.

Settled in the mid-1700s, the county played a major role in early American history, including the Wyoming Valley Battle of 1778, one of the most significant Revolutionary War conflicts in Pennsylvania.

The area later became a hub for canal transportation, timber harvesting, and dairy farming, industries that shaped its small towns and expansive countryside.

Today, Wyoming County is known for its quiet rural communities, riverfront homes, and vacation cabins tucked into the mountains.

It’s also home to unique attractions like the Tunkhannock Viaduct (Nicholson Bridge)—once the largest concrete railroad bridge in the world—and the Endless Mountains Balloon Festival, which draws visitors from across the state.

But with this rich history and diverse housing stock comes a unique set of pest challenges. Many structures, especially older farmhouses and river-adjacent homes, were built long before modern pest-prevention standards.

Thick timber framing, fieldstone foundations, and wide roof gaps all provide entry points for rodents, bats, insects, and other wildlife.

The county’s blend of forests, wetlands, and farmland creates ideal conditions for pests such as deer mice, voles, carpenter ants, ticks, mosquitoes, and seasonal invaders.
