Mathews serves as the county seat of Mathews County on the Middle Peninsula, where humid subtropical conditions shaped by the Chesapeake Bay support heavy mosquito activity.
Salt marshes in the area breed saltmarsh mosquitoes that travel miles inland, while brackish ditches and boat covers hold standing water that extends the season.
VA Mosquito Pros reaches Mathews via VA-14 and VA-198 from our Midlothian base to deliver pest control suited to these tidal conditions and nearby Gloucester properties.
