Residential Pest Control Plans

A scheduled plan keeps your Fredericksburg home treated through the year and comes with our guarantee, so you're not calling and paying for a new service every time another pest shows up. If you'd rather not commit to a schedule, we also offer one-time visits.

Pricing depends on the size of the property and the plan. Call us and we'll go over what fits your house.

Pests Covered on Every Pest Control Plan

  • Ants, including sugar ants and carpenter ants
  • Scorpions, spiders, roaches and crickets

Termites and Rodents Are Separate Services

  • Rodent control for rats and mice is a separate service.
  • We can also treat insects that aren't on a residential plan, such as bees, wasps and mosquitoes. See other pests we treat.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to call us at (830) 997-5080.

Do you offer one-time pest control service in Fredericksburg, or does everything require a contract?

Both are available, and neither requires a contract. One-Time Service is a single visit for something immediate or occasional. If you would rather the problem didn't return, our ongoing plans run annually, quarterly, bi-monthly or semi-annually, and you choose the frequency.

What happens if pests return between my scheduled services?

We come back out and treat them at no additional charge. That applies on the ongoing plans, whether you're on quarterly, bi-monthly, semi-annual or annual service, and you don't need to wait for your next scheduled visit. It doesn't apply to a one-time visit.

Are your treatments safe around pets and children?

Every structural pest control business in Texas is licensed by the Texas Department of Agriculture. Our license number is TPCL 5395. Products are applied at label rates, which is what that license governs. Please tell us before the visit if there are pets, children, livestock or anyone with a sensitivity in the house, and we'll explain what we're using and what to do during and after the treatment.

Do I need to be at home when you come?

Not for exterior service, which is one of the reasons many of our customers prefer it. Service normally begins with an interior inspection and treatment, and after that how much of the work happens indoors is largely up to you. Some customers would rather we came inside each visit and we're glad to do that. Either way, if pests are present inside the house we treat inside.

Why am I still seeing insects shortly after a treatment?

Usually because they are being flushed out of hiding, not moving in. A treatment can bring insects out of wall voids and other hiding places before it finishes working on them, so activity can appear to increase for a few days. If you're still seeing the same thing after that, please call us and we'll come back out.

Do you handle scorpions, and are they included in a residential plan?

Yes, scorpions are among the pests covered on a residential plan. The one that gets into Hill Country houses is the striped bark scorpion, which the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service's Field Guide to Common Texas Insects calls the “most common and widespread scorpion in Texas.” Adults run about two and three-eighths inches long, and the guide notes that many reports in homes are associated with attics. Treatment works alongside keeping grass down and closing gaps around the house, and we'll tell you what we see while we're on the property.

How much does residential pest control in Fredericksburg, TX cost?

It depends on several factors, such as the size of the property, the pest, and how far the infestation has gone, so we need to gather some information from you before we can give you a quote. To find out what it would cost, give us a call and describe what's happening. We'll make our recommendation and explain what it will cost before we do anything else.

Which towns around Fredericksburg do you cover?

We provide residential pest control service in Fredericksburg and the rest of Gillespie County, along with Stonewall, Harper, Johnson City, Blanco, Llano and Mason and the surrounding Texas Hill Country. If you aren't certain whether your address is in our area, please call and ask.

Do the chemicals have an odor, and do I need to leave the house?

Most people notice no strong odor, if any. The products are modern and approved for use in homes, and not every treatment requires you to leave. We do recommend that anyone sensitive, and anyone pregnant, is out of the house during the service and for a short period afterwards. Tell us who is in the household when you book and we'll tell you exactly what to expect.

How often should my house be serviced?

In most cases quarterly service is what a house needs, though it depends on the property, the pest and the pressure around it. Monthly service was once the standard recommendation, but with current products it's rarely necessary. We'll set your plan to what the property needs.

What pests are covered under a typical plan?

Our plans cover the pests that commonly turn up in Fredericksburg-area homes: ants, scorpions, spiders, roaches, crickets, fleas, flies, silverfish and the rest of the common household pests. Termite control and rodent control are separate services. If you're unsure whether something is included, please ask when you call and we'll let you know.
