Precision Pest Control works both sides of Flower Mound, the older homes tucked around Old Town near the original townsite and the newer subdivisions spreading toward the 2499 corridor. Those two halves of town were built decades apart, with different framing, different landscaping, and different pest pressure. We treat each on its own terms instead of running one blanket program across the whole city.


Raccoons and snakes turn up more in the older, tree-shaded lots around Old Town Flower Mound, where mature landscaping backs up to the Cross Timbers woodland and gives both plenty of cover. Fleas ride in on the pets that come with those established yards. Out toward the newer subdivisions near the 2499 corridor, we see more ants and spiders working fresh foundations and irrigation lines before the landscaping has had time to mature, along with cockroaches finding their way in through gaps still settling in new construction. Both halves of town need attention, just not the same attention.
The homes around Old Town Flower Mound, close to the original townsite off Morrison Street, back up against stands of oak and hackberry that are part of the Cross Timbers, one of the last big pockets of native woodland in this part of the metroplex. That is why raccoons and snakes turn up here more than almost anywhere else in the city. These lots have had thirty or forty years for foundations to settle and landscaping to mature, which means more gaps around utility lines, more cover for wildlife moving between yards, and slab joints that have shifted enough to open a path inside. Treating one of these properties means checking the tree line first, not just the exterior wall.
Head toward the newer sections of town near the 2499 corridor and the job changes. These subdivisions sit on fresh slabs with irrigation systems and sod only a few years old, so there is less mature landscaping to hide wildlife but plenty of loose soil, mulch beds, and new expansion joints for ants and spiders to work into before anyone has lived there long enough to notice a pattern. Cockroaches tend to show up through gaps that have not fully sealed as the house settles. A new build needs an exclusion check in year one and year two, not just a spray, because the entry points here are still forming.
