The license must be renewed annually and requires proof of insurance, a certified applicator on staff, and compliance with TDA regulations.

Texas pest control is regulated by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) under the Texas Structural Pest Control Act. All pest control businesses must hold a TPCL license, employ a certified applicator, maintain insurance, and follow specific rules for pesticide application, record keeping, and consumer protection.

Licensed Texas companies use EPA-registered products approved for residential and commercial use. Common categories include pyrethroids (synthetic insecticides for general pest barriers), fipronil (effective against ants and termites), neonicotinoids (for various insects), and growth regulators (which disrupt pest reproduction). Your technician should identify specific products used.

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.
