Authorized service categories (4) under this license
Pest Control (Category P)
Category P authorizes the company to perform general structural pest control services. This is the most common license category and covers the identification, treatment, and prevention of common household and commercial pests — officially including nuisance animals such as rats, mice, skunks, raccoons, and opossums (4 TAC §7.124(1)).
What this license covers:
- Cockroaches, ants, spiders, silverfish, and crickets
- Bed bugs, fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes
- Rats, mice, and rodent control
- Nuisance animals: skunks, raccoons, opossums
- Wasps, hornets, and other stinging insects
- Interior and exterior perimeter treatments
Why it matters: Category P is the foundation license for most pest control companies. It ensures the company has trained technicians who understand pest biology, proper pesticide application, and safety protocols for treating homes and businesses.
Termite Control (Category T)
Category T authorizes the company to inspect for, treat, and prevent termite and other wood-destroying insect infestations. This is a specialized license requiring additional training in termite biology, soil treatment, and structural assessment.
What this license covers:
- Subterranean termite treatment (liquid barriers and bait systems)
- Drywood termite treatment (localized and whole-structure)
- Formosan termite identification and treatment
- Pre-construction termite prevention for new buildings
- Termite inspections and WDI (Wood-Destroying Insect) reports
- Annual monitoring and warranty programs
Why it matters: Termite treatment requires specialized knowledge of soil chemistry, building construction, and treatment techniques. An incorrect application can fail to protect the structure or cause environmental damage. The T category ensures the company meets TDA standards for termite work.
Lawn & Ornamental (Category L)
Category L authorizes the inspection and control of pests and diseases of lawns, ornamental plants, and trees — in parks and around homes, businesses, industrial sites, and streets. It is the outdoor plant-pest category, separate from structural pest control.
What this license covers:
- Fire ant treatment and yard management
- Grub and chinch bug treatment in turf
- Mosquito yard treatments and barrier sprays
- Flea and tick outdoor applications
- Tree and ornamental insect and disease treatment
- Lawn pest prevention programs
Why it matters: Lawn and ornamental pesticide application requires understanding of turf grass species, plant sensitivity, environmental considerations like runoff, and proper timing for effective treatment. The L category ensures the applicator is trained in outdoor-specific pest management. Herbicide weed work is licensed separately under category W.
Commodity Fumigation (Category C)
Category C authorizes fumigation of processed commodities, raw agricultural commodities, and structures normally used to contain them — grain bins, silos, warehouses, and food-storage facilities. It excludes fumigation of agricultural equipment and on-farm commodities.
What this license covers:
- Grain bin and silo fumigation
- Warehouse and food-storage facility fumigation
- Stored-product pest control (weevils, grain beetles, moths)
- Mill and feedlot commodity treatment
- Shipping container and railcar fumigation
- Fumigant monitoring and clearance documentation
Why it matters: Commodity fumigation is a distinct credential from Structural Fumigation (S) — one does not authorize the other. The C category ensures the applicator is trained and certified for commodity and storage-structure fumigation work.

What services is Bug-N-Out Pest Control licensed to provide?
Bug-N-Out Pest Control is licensed by the Texas Department of Agriculture for 4 service categories: pest control, termite control, lawn & ornamental, and commodity fumigation. Each category is a separate authorization on TPCL #741927, so the company may only perform work it is explicitly licensed for.
What areas does Bug-N-Out Pest Control serve?
The TDA license record for Bug-N-Out Pest Control lists Houston, HARRIS County, Texas. No street address is on file, which is common for home-based or service-area businesses. The exact service area is not published in the license record and has not been independently verified. Call Bug-N-Out Pest Control to confirm coverage for your address before scheduling.
Are organic or natural pest control options effective?
Organic methods such as diatomaceous earth, essential oil repellents, and boric acid can be effective for certain pests. However, they often work more slowly and may not be sufficient for severe infestations. Many Texas companies offer green or low-toxicity options that balance effectiveness with environmental responsibility.
What is a certified applicator in Texas pest control?
A certified applicator is an individual who has passed the TDA examination demonstrating knowledge of pest identification, pesticide safety, application techniques, and state regulations. Texas law requires every pest control business to designate a certified applicator who supervises all pest management activities performed by the company.
What are the most common pests in Texas?
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.
What is heat treatment for pests?
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.
What pests does general pest control cover?
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.
