Homes and pests in Bartlett
Bartlett is the city northeast of Memphis that sits between Raleigh and Arlington. The Census counts about 35,160 homes here, 26,098 of them single-family detached (ACS 2020-2024).
South Bartlett near Stage Road has more homes from the 1970s; north and east Bartlett are newer. Older slabs and brick veneer over crawlspaces both give termites a way in, and the wooded lots on the north side see brown recluse spiders in garages and storage rooms.
Housing here is a mix: about 36% built before 1980 and 19% in 2000 or later. Older homes tend to have more gaps at doors and vents; newer ones still let ants and spiders in at garage seals and slab edges.
The weather is the same story across the county. Memphis averages about 56 inches of rain a year and 92 nights that stay at 70°F or warmer (NOAA, 1996 to 2025), and only 6 nights a year reach 20°F. The state's charter list shows 30 chartered pest control offices based in these ZIPs, though most companies work the whole county.

Questions homeowners ask
Do you cover all of Bartlett?
Yes, including ZIPs 38133, 38134, 38135. The company confirms your address when they call.
How fast can someone come out?
It depends on the company's schedule and the problem. Say in your request if it's urgent, like wasps by the door or a rodent in the living area.
Do I get a price first?
Ask for one. Companies can inspect and quote before treating. If you only want a price, pick that option in the form.
How do I check the company?
Ask for its Tennessee charter number, which must be on the company vehicle, and look it up in the Department of Agriculture's public charter search.
