Pest Control in Travis County

The towns of Travis County sit in one place administratively and in several places practically. The license comes from the state, yet who actually drives to a given address is a local matter, and it is worth asking before booking rather than after.

(888) 217-6291

Licensed Texas technicians. No obligation for the call.

What you are dealing with matters more than the county line. The winter decides whether a population gets knocked back every year or never does, and that single fact changes what a treatment has to do — clear an infestation, or hold a barrier that has nothing to recover from.

Federal quarantine — imported fire ant

Travis County falls inside the federal imported fire ant quarantine. This is not a prediction about whether conditions suit them: it is a statement by USDA APHIS that they are established here.

The practical consequence for a household is small and worth knowing: nursery stock, sod, soil and used soil-moving equipment cannot leave a quarantined county for a free one without certification. Moving a shrub across a county line is how the range grew in the first place.

License: Held by the contractor and issued in Texas. Ask which name it is held under — a trading name and the licensed entity are often not the same.
Price: Quoted before the work starts, not after. If a technician cannot say what the visit will cost before beginning, that is the moment to stop.
The call: Describing what you found commits you to nothing. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Coverage: By town, not by region. Travis County and the towns around it.
