Why Adamsville homes get centipedes and millipedes
The setting around Adamsville does most of the work. The red clay and limestone-based loam holds the moisture the pests need, the the Appalachians, the Cumberland Plateau, and valleys offers shelter, and the humid subtropical climate extends the active season. The homes near the the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers and lakes and the ones on the older streets with mature trees see the heaviest pressure, and the newer construction brings its own set of conditions.
Prevention tips for Adamsville homeowners
- Clear the leaf litter and the mulch from the foundation.
- Reduce the moisture and fix the drainage issues.
- Keep the grass short and the ground cover thin.
- Seal the gaps around the doors and the foundation.
- Vent the crawl space to keep it dry.
In Adamsville, the homes that stay pest-free are the ones that stay on the schedule.
