About our service
Pest control for Murphy, TX
Murphy is home to roughly 21,100 residents, and the places people gather give a good sense of where pests turn up too. Murphy Central Park, Waters Edge Park, Mustang Park and Timbers Nature Preserve Park offer green space, while the Murphy Activity Center, Murphy Community Center and Tom Kimbrough Stadium draw crowds through the year. Homes beside planted, open areas like these often deal with a different mix of insects than homes tucked deep into a neighborhood such as Rolling Ridge Estates.
Natural Pest Solutions serves Murphy with ant treatment, rodent control, termite control and careful pest inspection visits. Our natural pest control options rely on non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. Murphy customers are never tied to a long-term contract, so service continues only as long as it earns its place. Ask for a free quote and we will explain what we find and what we suggest.

Pests we treat around Murphy
Pests in Murphy
What we deal with most around Murphy, TX
Ants are the most frequent visitors in Murphy kitchens and bathrooms, and carpenter ants turn up where wood stays damp near sinks, roof edges and fence lines. Termites are active in Texas soil and can feed on framing for a long time before anyone notices, so a routine look at foundations and crawl areas is worth the effort. Spiders settle into garages, eaves and sheds, and cockroaches come indoors when heat or dry spells push them toward moisture.
Green space nearby also means mosquitoes, ticks and fleas around yards where pets and children play, and wasps build paper nests under eaves and on playground equipment. Murphy has about 44 nights a year at or below freezing, which is enough to drive mice and rats toward warm garages and attics each winter. With around 95 days at 90 degrees or higher, the warm season is long, and pests stay active for much of it.
Weather and pests
How Murphy's weather affects pest activity
Murphy's July highs average about 92 degrees, August is the warmest month, and January is the coldest, with lows near 34. The area receives about 40 inches of precipitation in a typical year and no measurable snow, and May is the wettest month at roughly 4.7 inches. These figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so treat them as a guide, not a forecast.
Those 95 hot days and a wet May set up a clear pattern. Spring rain leaves water in gutters, flowerpots and low corners of a yard, and mosquitoes will breed in even a bottle cap of it. Damp soil against a foundation attracts termites and carpenter ants, while summer heat drives cockroaches and spiders toward shade and air-conditioned rooms.
The 44 freezing nights are the reason fall matters here. Mice do not wait for deep cold; they start testing gaps around pipes, garage doors and vents as soon as evenings cool. Sealing those entry points, trimming branches back from the roof and keeping stored boxes off the garage floor gives a treatment much better odds of holding through winter.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Murphy
Ant treatment in Murphy
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Murphy, 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 Murphy
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Murphy 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 Murphy
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. Regular moisture around foundations makes regular checks especially worthwhile. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Murphy home is built.
Cockroach control in Murphy
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 Murphy apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Murphy
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 Murphy
Murphy's wet weather makes mosquitoes a real nuisance. 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.
