Services
Pest Control
Our comprehensive pest control services target common household and commercial pests including ants, cockroaches, spiders, and crickets. Using targeted treatments followed by regular maintenance plans, we provide year-round protection. Our technicians create customized solutions for each property, ensuring effective pest elimination and prevention tailored to South Texas environments.
Termite Control
Specializing in subterranean termite management, we offer pre-construction, post-construction, and baiting system solutions. Our Termidor Certified experts implement liquid barriers and monitoring systems to protect properties. With entomologists on staff and 45 years of experience, we provide thorough inspections and treatments backed by warranty options for long-term structural protection.
Bee Removal
We safely remove honey bee hives from residential and commercial properties using professional equipment and techniques. Our services include hive extraction from difficult locations like tree hollows and building eaves. When possible, we coordinate with beekeepers for relocation, while ensuring complete removal of honeycomb residue to prevent re-infestation and structural damage.
Mosquito Control
Our mosquito misting systems use biodegradable pyrethrum-based solutions to create pest-free outdoor environments. Custom-installed systems automatically release timed mists to disrupt mosquito breeding cycles. This low-residue solution effectively controls mosquitoes and other flying insects while maintaining safety for humans, pets, and the environment.
Commercial Pest Control
We provide tailored pest management solutions for commercial properties including oil & gas facilities, senior communities, and restaurants. Our services meet insurance and safety requirements while accommodating operational schedules. From monthly maintenance plans to emergency treatments, we ensure compliance with industry standards and minimize business disruptions through efficient, professional pest control.
Questions
Are pest control chemicals safe for families and pets?
Our treatments use EPA-registered chemicals applied following strict safety protocols. Technicians ensure proper application to minimize exposure risks while maintaining effectiveness against pests in residential and commercial environments.
How does termite baiting differ from liquid treatments?
Termite baiting systems use monitored stations with slow-acting toxins to eliminate colonies over time, while liquid treatments create chemical barriers. Baiting requires regular maintenance but offers less invasive application compared to soil treatments.
What pests are most common in South Texas?
Top pests include subterranean termites, bed bugs, carpenter ants, fire ants, fleas, roaches, and mosquitoes. Our services address these common infestations with targeted treatments adapted to local climate conditions.
Do you offer same-day pest control services?
We prioritize urgent requests and often provide same-day appointments for critical issues like bee hive removals and severe infestations, ensuring prompt resolution of pest problems.
What commercial pest control plans are available?
We offer customized monthly, quarterly, and annual plans for businesses, including specialized services for oil & gas facilities, multi-unit housing, and food service establishments with flexible scheduling options.
