Morgan City is known as a city located “right in the middle of everywhere” on the banks of the Atchafalaya River approximately 60 miles south of Baton Rouge, 60 miles east of Lafayette, and 70 miles west of New Orleans. It’s also known as the gateway to the Gulf of Mexico for the shrimping and oilfield industries.

Each Labor Day, Morgan City hosts the Louisiana Shrimp and Petroleum Festival to celebrate both of the city’s prime industries. A walk through Morgan City’s 19-block historic center gives you a view of industrial vessels and shrimp boats and plenty of local cajun restaurants. Visit the International Petroleum Museum to tour a historic drilling rig or learn about Morgan City and the surrounding area’s natural heritage by checking out the Swamp Gardens & Wildlife Zoo.

Whether you live, work, or are visiting Morgan City, there is no doubt that the community is known for its industries plus fresh and saltwater fishing, hunting, and fine Cajun cuisine. And like most places in Southern Louisiana, the moist, humid climate plus proximity to water makes it a place known for pests, too.

Common Louisiana rodents include house mice, Norway rats, and roof rats. They all pose problems for homeowners in Morgan City because they can carry disease, contaminate food, cause damage to your home and property, and reproduce rapidly. Look out for signs that you have a rodent infestation including scratching noises in the walls, droppings, or signs of chewing on food packaging. Don’t try to handle a rodent problem on your own! Reach out to a local pest control company like LaJaunie’s Pest Control. Our rodent control and removal services in Morgan City, St. Mary, and lower St. Martin parishes come with our recurring services.

Mosquitos enjoy Southern Louisiana weather because they thrive in wet, hot climates. If it stays warmer and rainier for longer periods of time, this gives mosquitoes the chance to stick around longer, too! Morgan City’s location in the Atchafalaya River Delta makes it a prime location for mosquito activity. These pests can spread disease, bite and ruin even the nicest spring day or summer evening. LaJaunie’s Pest Control is a local pest control company providing  professional mosquito control services in Morgan City, LA including the following:  

• Recurring mosquito and tick treatments for long-lasting results
• One-time treatments for effective mosquito control for outdoor events, such as weddings, graduation parties, cookouts, and more

Bed bugs – or just the suspicion that you might have them in your Morgan City home – can wreck a peaceful night’s sleep. These small, reddish-brown, wingless insects feed on human blood, and although they do not spread diseases, they are hard to get rid of once they get inside your home. If you suspect that you have a bed bug infestation, start with a free bed bug inspection from LaJaunie’s Pest Control. We offer bed bug treatments and same-day bed bug treatment, and our bed bug exterminators are fully licensed by the Louisiana Dept. of Agriculture.
