IPM is a science-based approach that combines prevention, monitoring, and targeted treatment to manage pests with minimal chemical use. It includes sealing entry points, removing food and water sources, and using pesticides only when necessary. Many licensed Texas companies offer IPM programs as a long-term, environmentally responsible option.

Yes. Complaints against licensed pest control companies can be filed with the Texas Department of Agriculture. You can report unlicensed operators, unsafe practices, or unsatisfactory service. The TDA investigates complaints and can take enforcement action including fines and license suspension.

The most common Texas pests include fire ants, cockroaches (American and German), termites (subterranean and Formosan), mosquitoes, scorpions, spiders (brown recluse and black widow), wasps, rodents, bed bugs, and fleas/ticks. The warm climate and diverse geography create ideal conditions for a wide variety of pests year-round.

Heat treatment involves raising the temperature of an infested area to 130–145°F using industrial heaters. It is the most effective treatment for bed bugs and can also treat drywood termites in localized areas. The high temperature kills all life stages including eggs. No chemicals are used, and rooms can typically be re-occupied the same day.

General pest control (Category P) covers common household pests including cockroaches, ants, spiders, silverfish, earwigs, crickets, centipedes, and occasional invaders. Some companies include mosquito and flea treatments in their general service, while others offer these as add-ons.

The two-step method is most effective: first, broadcast a bait product across your entire yard when ants are actively foraging (mornings or evenings in moderate weather). Then, treat individual mounds directly with a contact insecticide 3–5 days later. Professional treatment is recommended for large properties or persistent infestations.
