Know your pests
Pests we treat around Austin
Pests in Austin
What we deal with most around Austin, TX
Trees, creeks and shaded yards are a big part of life in Austin, and they shape which pests turn up. Carpenter ants and termites thrive in damp wood, ants follow moisture into kitchens and bathrooms, and scorpions and spiders shelter under stones, planters and wood stacks before wandering in. Wasps favor eaves and outdoor light fixtures, and rodents take advantage of any gap where a roof meets a wall.
Green areas such as Mayfield Park, Ramsey Park, Eastwoods Neighborhood Park and West Austin Neighborhood Park attract plenty of wildlife, and pests often travel with it. Mosquitoes multiply wherever water stands, and ticks and fleas can be brought inside by pets that spend time in tall grass. A few minutes spent walking the outside of your home each season goes a long way toward catching entry points.
Weather and pests
How Austin's weather affects pest activity
Austin's weather is warm for much of the year. The numbers below are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, and they are a guide rather than a forecast. July highs average about 97 degrees, January lows are near 42, August is the warmest month and January the coldest. A typical year brings roughly 36 inches of precipitation and no measurable snow.
Austin records about 123 days a year at 90 degrees or higher, yet only about 12 nights at or below freezing. That combination means pests have a long active season and a very short pause. May is the wettest month at about 5.0 inches, so spring storms can leave standing water and damp soil just as ants, mosquitoes and termites are hitting their stride.
With such a long warm season, prevention has plenty of time to work. Trim shrubs and branches so they do not touch the house, store firewood and building scraps away from exterior walls, and clean out gutters before the spring rains. In the summer heat, keep an eye on shaded, damp areas near hose bibs and air conditioner lines, and in the cooler months seal cracks so rodents do not settle in when the nights dip.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Austin
Ant treatment in Austin
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Austin, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Hot summers keep colonies growing all season. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Austin
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Austin buildings offer plenty of all three. They can be a year-round issue. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Austin
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. A yearly inspection costs little next to the cost of repairs. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Austin home is built.
Cockroach control in Austin
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Austin apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Austin
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Austin
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Austin. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
