Texas faces unique challenges including Formosan termite colonies in the Gulf region, fire ant infestations across most of the state, extreme heat that drives pests indoors, a long warm season that keeps pests active year-round, and a diverse geography ranging from humid coastlines to arid deserts, each with different pest pressures.

Modern eco-friendly methods including botanical insecticides, essential oil repellents, diatomaceous earth, and biological controls can be effective for many common pests. They work best as part of an IPM program that emphasizes prevention and monitoring. For severe infestations, conventional products may be needed initially before transitioning to green maintenance.

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 striped bark scorpion is the most common species in Texas. Its sting is painful (similar to a bee sting) but rarely medically significant for healthy adults. Children, elderly individuals, and those with allergies may have stronger reactions. If stung, apply ice and monitor for unusual symptoms. Seek medical attention for severe reactions.
