Pests We See Most in Round Rock

I-35 splits Round Rock in two: limestone hills to the west, blackland clay to the east. Each side brings its own pests.

Fire Ants

Worst in the newer northeast neighborhoods like Vizcaya and Salerno and along SH 130, where freshly graded clay gives new colonies open ground.

Ants and Roaches

East of I-35 the clay shrinks and splits in summer drought, opening a path straight to slabs and plumbing.

Scorpions and Spiders

Year-round on the limestone west of I-35, in neighborhoods like Round Rock West and Mayfield Ranch.

Roof Rats & Rodents

Common around Old Town and the established neighborhoods along Brushy Creek, where mature pecans and oaks reach the roofline.

Round Rock Specific Frequently Asked Questions About Pest Control

Why does Round Rock experience these types of pests? 

Round Rock sits right on the Balcones Escarpment, the geological line that runs roughly along I-35, so the city is really two landscapes. West of the highway is limestone and cedar: rocky, shaded ground where scorpions and spiders live year-round. East of it is blackland clay that cracks open in summer drought, plus the newer neighborhoods along SH 130 where freshly graded soil draws fire ant colonies. Add Brushy Creek running through the middle of town and mature trees in the older neighborhoods, and Round Rock homes deal with almost every major Central Texas pest, depending on which side of I-35 they’re on. 

Does what side of I-35 I am on change how you treat for pests? 

Same plan, different focus. Every home gets full perimeter protection, but our technicians adjust to the ground they’re working on. West of I-35, we spend more time on scorpion entry points: door gaps, weep holes, eaves and rock borders. East of I-35, we focus on the foundation, where clay cracks give roaches and ants a way in, and on fire ant activity in the yard. It’s the main reason local knowledge matters: the same treatment on both sides of town would miss half the problem.

Does living near Brushy Creek mean more mosquitoes?

Yes. Homes near Brushy Creek, Lake Creek and the trails along them see more mosquito pressure than homes farther away, because shaded creek banks and slow water give mosquitoes places to breed from spring through early fall. Standing water closer to home matters too: clogged gutters, plant saucers and low spots in the yard. We can point those out on a visit so you can dump them before they become a problem.

Prickly Pear is based in Pflugerville. Do you cover all of Round Rock?

Round Rock is one of the closest areas we serve. Our technicians are working in Round Rock neighborhoods every week. If something comes up between scheduled visits, we’re minutes away, not across town.

Does Prickly Pear treat for ants as part of their regular service? 

Yes — Prickly Pear’s base pest control service includes ant service for the interior as well as the perimeter of the home with optional add-ons for full yard fire ant service. 

Do you remove wasp nests? 

Yes — Our technicians will inspect and remove wasp nests during a regular service.
