All About Okolona, KY
Okolona is a former census-designated place (CDP) in southern Louisville/Jefferson County. It was first settled by farmers from Pennsylvania and Virginia in the late 18th century. It was called Lone Oak in the late 19th century. However, a town near Paducah, Kentucky already claimed that name for its post office, so the town rearranged the words into Okolona. Farming, as well as logging and charcoal production were important industries around this time. An interurban line was extended to the area in 1905, but residential development did not pick up until General Electric Appliance Park was opened nearby in 1953. Okolona sits at exactly the same elevation as Downtown Louisville despite being 10 miles from the Ohio River, making it one of the city’s most flood prone areas. Several square miles of wetlands had to be drained in the area to make development possible. Fun fact: the O in OPC stands for Okolona!
Okolona clearly has a rich history but it’s also a tourist destination. Do some mega zips, take a mega tram, or do a mega quest at Mega Cavern. Have a laugh at the The Caravan Comedy Club. Try your luck at the Derby City Gaming Hotel, but remember the house always wins. Stay for dinner, though! We suggest treating yourself to a meal at Oliver’s Chop House & Bourbon Bar. Get the chargrilled oysters, the lobster bisque, and the cowboy rib eye. It’s not easy to choose from the sides so order several. But don’t miss the truffle parmesan fries and the gouda mac and cheese. Every year, people flock to Okolona to enjoy everything it has to offer, but unfortunately, so do pests. While these bugs and rodents provide benefits to the eco-system in Okolona, they can also be a serious problem at homes and businesses. That’s when a professional pest control expert should be called in.

As the Bluegrass State, Kentucky is known for its forests, farms, trails, and abundance of greenery and lush vegetation. Okolona is no exception. Warm, moist summers give way to cold and windy winters, which means over-wintering insects, rodents, and other small wildlife need to find warm places to wait out the cold. The local extermination experts at our South Bardstown, KY branch are used to dealing with mice, ants, brown recluse spiders, bed bugs, termites, mosquitoes, ticks, moles – and even the occasional hiding bat. No matter the season, your pest control service needs will be taken care of by a local exterminator that knows the area and the pests that are common to it. In the summer, they know what that the ponds and birdbaths many people have around their homes can be exactly where mosquitoes like to breed. They even know how take care of the moles that can ruin your landscaping – and the money you spent on it. It may be hard to take care of all the moles at Okolona Park, but they can help your backyard stay free from them. In the cooler months, they know mice can try to make their way into your garage – especially if that’s where you keep the 20 lb. dog food bag!
