Montague County, Texas
Pest control inSunset, Texas.
Sunset sits south of Bowie on the highway, which makes it one of the easier stops on our route. Most of the work here is houses on acreage and the outbuildings that come with them.
What we see out here
- Properties on a few acres need the barn and shop treated as well as the house, or it just walks back in
- Highway frontage and open country means more rodent movement in the fall than a town lot sees
- Septic and stock water create mosquito breeding that has to be found, not just sprayed over
House and outbuildings together
The mistake on an acreage property is treating the house on its own. The shop, the barn and the shed are where the population actually lives, and the house is just where they end up when it turns cold. Treating all of it at once costs less than treating the house four times.
Finding the water
Mosquito work out here is mostly detective work. A trough, a low spot that holds after rain, a tarp over something. Spraying the yard without dealing with that is money spent for a week of relief.
What we handle in Sunset
General Pest Control
Quarterly service inside and out. Covers the usual roster — roaches, spiders, silverfish, crickets, ants.
Termite Protection
Inspections, liquid barrier treatments and ongoing protection. Subterranean termites are active in this county year-round.
Mosquito Treatment
Yard treatments on a schedule through the season, plus finding and killing the standing water they're breeding in.
Rodent Control
Trapping, baiting and — the part most companies skip — sealing the way they got in so it doesn't repeat next fall.
Ants and Fire Ants
Indoor trails and outdoor mounds are two different jobs. We do both, including full-yard broadcast.
Wasps, Hornets and Spiders
Nest removal and knockdown on eaves, porches, barns and shops. Including the high ones you'd rather not get a ladder out for.
Fleas and Ticks
Inside treatment plus yard and kennel areas. Country properties with dogs usually need both to get ahead of it.
Bed Bugs
Inspection, treatment and a follow-up visit. Discreet, unmarked arrival if that matters to you.
Real Estate Inspections
Wood-destroying insect reports for home sales and refinancing. Fast turnaround for agents and lenders in the county.
Commercial Accounts
Restaurants, clinics, offices, storage and shops. Service on your schedule with documentation you can hand an inspector.
