Quarterly pest protection built for the Nacogdoches piney woods
We publish our plan prices right here. No estimate call required to find out what a quarter of service costs at your address.
East Texas humidity and rainfall set our visit schedule, down to the month, because that's what actually drives pest pressure here.
Why piney woods pest pressure runs harder here
Nacogdoches sits inside a humid subtropical belt that averages roughly 51 inches of rain a year, with April running the wettest at close to 4.7 inches. That much water moving through sandy-loam East Texas soil keeps the ground damp enough, long enough, to support subterranean and Formosan termite colonies almost year round. Winters here rarely deliver a hard, sustained freeze, so pests that would die back further north just slow down instead of dying off. Lots near Lanana Creek and the older housing stock inside the Sterne-Hoya, Virginia Avenue, and Zion Hill historic overlay districts carry extra moisture and original wood trim, which is exactly the combination carpenter ants and wood-destroying insects look for.
None of that means every house is doomed. It means a pest plan built for Houston clay or Dallas drought doesn't fit a Nacogdoches County address, and a plan built around our actual rainfall and soil does.

Nacogdoches, the SFA area, and the Lufkin corridor
We run trucks along the Loop 224 side of town and out US 59 toward the Lufkin corridor. If you're inside that stretch, we can usually get someone on-site within 2 business days.
What we do, and one thing we don't
We handle insects and rodents: termites, ants, roaches, mosquitoes, wasps, mice, and rats. We don't do wildlife trapping. Raccoons, possums, and snakes need a licensed wildlife operator, and we'll tell you that on the phone instead of taking the job anyway.
Before you call
Do you serve areas outside Nacogdoches proper?
Yes. We run regular routes out the Lufkin corridor along US 59 and cover the SFA campus area and surrounding Nacogdoches County. If you're farther out, call and we'll tell you honestly whether we can get a truck to you on a normal route schedule.
Are your technicians licensed?
Yes. Applicators are certified through the Texas Department of Agriculture's Structural Pest Control Service, which requires classroom training, on-the-job hours, and a passing state exam before anyone treats a customer's property.
What's the difference between the three quarterly plans?
Field Notes covers general pest control. Almanac adds termite monitoring and seasonal mosquito treatment. Full Canopy adds rodent exclusion checks and unlimited callbacks. Full details are on the quarterly plans page.
Do I have to sign a long contract?
Plans run quarter to quarter. Cancel before your next scheduled visit and you won't be billed again. No multi-year lock-in.
