Austin Specific Frequently Asked Questions About Pest Control

Why does Austin experience such a variety of pests? 

Austin is caught between two forces that both drive pest pressure. On one side, neighborhoods like Anderson Mill and Milwood were built out in the late 1970s through the 1990s and have decades of mature oak and cedar canopy, shaded mulch beds, and established landscaping — exactly the kind of moisture-retaining cover ants and roaches nest in. On the other side, the North Burnet/Gateway district and the area around the Domain are in the middle of a genuine construction boom, with old lots being cleared for dense mixed-use development along Burnet Road, Braker Lane, and MoPac — freshly disturbed, graded soil is prime colonization ground for fire ant queens. Add creek corridors like the Walnut Creek Trail and Balcones District Park, and homes nearby see real mosquito breeding pressure on top of the everyday ants, roaches, and rodents every Central Texas home deals with.
 

Why does the area near the Domain and North Burnet see more fire ants?

Freshly disturbed and graded soil — common with the amount of construction happening along Burnet Road, Braker Lane, and MoPac — is prime colonization ground for fire ant queens. Established, undisturbed yards tend to see less pressure than actively developing areas.

Do the creek corridors near Anderson Mill and Milwood mean more mosquitoes?

Yes — standing water and creek corridors are the primary mosquito breeding driver, so homes near the Walnut Creek Trail or Balcones District Park typically see more mosquito pressure than homes farther from water.

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.
