Pest Control in Ludowici, GA — Tile Roofs, Pine Country & a Fast-Growing County
Ludowici is the seat of Long County, about 15 miles southwest of Hinesville, and part of the Hinesville–Fort Stewart metro area. The town is famous for the red "Dixie" clay roof tiles made here in the early 1900s, which still cap a number of its homes. Long County has grown fast, from about 16,200 people in 2020 to an estimated 21,500 in 2025, so Ludowici now mixes older tile-roofed homes, rural farms and timberland with brand-new subdivisions. Each brings different pests, and we plan for all of them.

Pest control in Ludowici ranges from older tile-roofed homes, where gaps under the tiles and eaves can hide wasps and let rodents in, to new subdivisions dealing with fire ants in fresh sod, and rural properties with rodents in barns and feed rooms. We serve Ludowici and Long County from Hinesville, with the same pricing, same-day service available, and a written price before any treatment.
Why Now
Why Ludowici Has Growing Pest Pressure
Fast growth. Long County's population is estimated to have grown about a third between 2020 and 2025. New construction clears land and lays fresh sod and mulch, which fire ants and termites move into quickly.
Tile roofs and older homes. Clay tile roofs last a long time, but gaps where tiles meet eaves, ridges and vents give paper wasps and roof rats places to get in. Older homes near the historic center also carry more termite risk in aging wood.
Pine forests and farms. Long County has always been pine and farm country. Timber edges hold palmetto bugs, ants and spiders, and barns, feed and grain draw rats and mice.
Storm season. Hurricane season runs through November 30, and heavy rain pushes pests toward houses across the whole region.
