    Country Living & Pest Control

    Carter’s Cottage is located in the beautiful Virginia countryside, where fresh air, open space, and natural surroundings are part of the experience. As with all rural properties, occasional insects and wildlife may be present during certain seasons.

    We maintain regular professional pest-control treatments and preventative care throughout the year to help minimize activity. While these efforts are highly effective, it is not possible to eliminate every insect entirely in a countryside setting.

    Thank you for embracing the charm and natural beauty of rural Virginia living.
