Authorized service categories (3) under this license

P

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.

T

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.

W

Weed Control (Category W)

Category W authorizes the inspection and control of weeds in rights-of-way, around homes, in parks, and in and around structures, business establishments, industrial parks, institutional buildings, streets, and industrial environs. It is the herbicide category — TDA does not issue a wildlife removal license.

What this license covers:

  • Pre-emergent herbicide applications (crabgrass, annual bluegrass)
  • Post-emergent broadleaf weed spot treatments
  • Fence line, driveway, and hardscape vegetation management
  • Commercial and industrial bare-ground programs
  • Rights-of-way weed control
  • Bundled lawn weed and feed programs

Why it matters: Herbicide application requires training in product selection, turf sensitivity, drift management, and environmental protection. The W category ensures the applicator passed the TDA weed control examination. Looking for animal removal? That work is covered by the Pest Control (P) category or is exempt from TDA licensing when done with live traps.
