Union County is built around that highway and the Honda plant at Marysville. The housing is young, with a median build year of 1995, and only about 21% of homes are rented (ACS 2019-23). Outside the towns it is open cropland, which shapes the pest list: field rodents, ants and wasps for homes, and a different set of problems for the industrial and warehouse buildings along the corridor.
Cropland, farmsteads and rodents on the Union County plain
Open fields feed mice and rats through the growing season, then lose their cover at harvest. Rodents move to whatever stays warm and has food, and that means grain bins, machine sheds, barns and the houses beside them. A rat is bigger than a mouse and leaves different signs, such as burrows along foundations and gnaw marks on thick wood.
Farm buildings need exclusion work more than trapping alone. Exclusion means sealing the gaps that let animals in, so a trapped population is not replaced by the next one. Our pages on mouse control and rat control explain how we work through a building.

US-33 corridor businesses and the Honda plant's neighbors
Industrial parks, hotels and restaurants along US-33 have different pest needs than houses. Loading docks bring in flies and roaches with deliveries, break rooms hold food, and large buildings have plenty of door seals to fail. We provide warehouse pest control and restaurant and hotel service on a schedule that matches the building.
This describes the kinds of buildings that gather around a large manufacturing campus, not any particular customer.

Farm shed, plant neighbor or village home?
Tell us the road, the building and what you saw. Barns, loading docks and 1990s houses each get different questions, and we plan the 37 mile run up US-33 around them.

Pest control services Union County calls for
Marysville, Richwood and the roads that cross Union County
Union County was formed in 1820 from parts of Franklin, Delaware, Madison and Logan counties and covers 437 square miles. Marysville is the seat and largest city, with Honda of America's auto plant and the Scotts Miracle-Gro headquarters. The villages are Magnetic Springs, Milford Center, Richwood, Unionville Center and part of Plain City. US 33, US 36, US 42 and State Route 4 cross the county.
About 230,720 of the county's 277,760 acres are farmland, with roughly 1,000 farms and plenty of corn. Stubble and stored grain feed mice into the fall, and the trucks that serve the plants carry pallets and cardboard that can bring in insects. Whether you are in a village on SR 4 or on a farm road off US-33, tell us the road and the building.
Getting a visit 45 minutes from Dunning Rd
Call with your town, the building type and what you saw. The distance means a booked visit is more common here than a quick stop, and same-day work is possible only when the day's schedule allows. We ask about allergies, pets and children before anything is applied, and products go on according to label directions.
For homes in town, see Marysville and New California, plus Plain City on the south line. Boydes has worked central Ohio since 1990, and the US-33 run to Union County is part of that territory.

Pest control in Union County: common questions
Do you service farms and outbuildings in Union County?
We handle rodents, wasps, flies and other insects around barns, sheds and farmhouses, and we will tell you what we can do on the phone. Rat and mouse work starts with finding the entry points and food sources, then trapping or baiting and sealing. We quote after we see the building, and you hear the price first.
Can you set up pest control for a warehouse near US-33?
Yes. Warehouse and distribution buildings need a plan built around docks, door seals, drains and break rooms, with visits set weekly, monthly or as needed. We walk the building, write down what we find and agree on a schedule. Pricing depends on the building and the pests, and we explain it before starting.
How long is the drive, and does it change how fast you can come?
It is about 45 minutes from Dunning Rd to Union County, mostly on US-33. That distance is why we book visits more than we squeeze them in. A same-day stop can happen when the schedule allows, so call early in the day and tell us what you are seeing.
