What we treat
Fire Ants, Termites and Attic Rodents on Flower Mound's Wooded Lake Edge
Red imported fire ants
Fire ants build mounds of soft soil without a central opening, and disturbed ants swarm up a surface and sting together, the Texas fire ant program warns. For bait to work, apply it mid-morning after the dew dries or in the late afternoon on hot days, and not below 65 degrees. A spring application usually lasts until fall, and bait should be repeated when mounds reappear.
Subterranean termites
AgriLife says pier-and-beam houses should leave 18 inches between floor joists and soil, with crawl space vents that give cross-ventilation and polyethylene sheeting over at least 70 percent of the soil. For new construction it describes stainless steel mesh or plastic sheeting under the foundation as a physical barrier. Annual inspection by a licensed professional is its recommendation.
Southern house mosquitoes
Preventing bites is the best West Nile defense, says Texas DSHS, which adds that risk may last all year in warmer parts of the state. Most infected people, about 80 percent, never get ill. With Grapevine Lake nearby, flower pots, bird baths, gutters and low spots in landscaping are the water sources to check on your own lot.
Roof rats
Texas A&M's city bugs writers advise sealing garage door gaps, roof vents and flashing, siding bases and crawl space openings before trapping. Droppings point to where traps belong, and pre-baiting unset traps for several days to a week helps rats accept them. The same article warns that rats can chew wiring, creating a fire hazard, and that dead rats in walls can bring odors and flies.
Local advice
A squirrel needs a gap of only 1/2 inch to enter an attic, according to Texas A&M's city bug specialists, and it can open large holes in soffits and fascia and chew wiring. The recommendation is a one-way door or repeater trap at the roof entry point rather than poison, and the blog advises hiring a professional because roof work is risky.
Spotted something?
Termite swarmers appear from early spring into early summer per AgriLife, and cool spring mornings below 65 degrees make fire ant bait ineffective. Wait for warmer days before treating, and use the time to seal roofline gaps where squirrels and rats look for nesting space.
Heat sends fire ants to moisture in utility rooms and bathrooms, and hot dry spells are the time to treat in late afternoon or evening. Lake humidity and watered lawns keep mosquitoes breeding, so empty containers weekly and keep gutters clear.
The ideal period for broadcast fire ant bait runs from late August through October, so colonies shrink before spring. As temperatures drop, rats and squirrels look for protected attic space, which makes October a good time to inspect soffits and vents.

Late August through October is the ideal window, according to the Texas fire ant program, because colonies stay suppressed into early spring. Bait works between 65 and 95 degrees, so skip cold spring mornings. On hot, dry days, apply in the late afternoon or evening.
They can. In AgriLife's words, a home with no protection is very likely to see some termite damage in its first 25 years, so it recommends yearly inspections. Moisture from leaks, gutters and irrigation along the foundation raises the odds. Keep wood off the soil and watch for earthen tubes.
Seal entry points, especially soffit and fascia gaps, since a squirrel needs only a 1/2-inch opening. Texas A&M recommends a one-way door or repeater trap at the roof entry, never poison, and suggests a professional because roof work is hazardous. Trim limbs touching the roof.
Remove standing water from pots, bird baths, tires, gutters and low yard spots, since Dallas County's health department lists those as breeding sites. Use repellent, wear light long clothing and avoid dusk and dawn. Texas DSHS says preventing bites is the best West Nile protection.

Listen for scurrying or footsteps overhead and look for droppings along rafters or beside stored boxes. Texas A&M says a roof rat can enter through an opening as small as a coin and may gnaw wiring. Seal gaps with steel wool or cement, then trap with snap traps.
Flower Mound spreads over about 44 square miles of Eastern Cross Timbers woodland and prairie, with Grapevine Lake and Marshall Creek along its south side. Trees, lawns and lake moisture give ants, rodents and mosquitoes an easy foothold.
Flower Mound takes its name from a 12.5-acre hill about 50 feet tall, covered with bluestem grasses and wildflowers and cared for by the Mound Foundation. The town recorded 75,956 residents in 2020, mostly in Denton County with a small part in Tarrant County, at an elevation of 604 feet. It lies about 20 miles northwest of Dallas and 25 miles northeast of Fort Worth.
Grapevine Lake touches the town, and with Marshall Creek it forms much of the southern boundary. The Trinity River basin, the Eastern Cross Timbers and some blackland prairie all meet here. About 37 inches of rain falls in an average year, and 113 degrees is the highest temperature on record. Warm, wet, tree-covered ground attracts many household invaders.
Local field notes
What our technicians check first on a Flower Mound property
Unique to Flower Mound
Local conditions decide where pests live and how they get in. These are the Flower Mound details that shape every plan we write here.
Tree limbs that touch a roof give squirrels and rats a branch-to-roof route, and the Cross Timbers setting puts woods close to many houses. Trim limbs back from shingles, cap chimneys, screen vents and check where cable and pipe lines enter the wall, because a quarter-sized hole is enough for a rat.
Our first visit covers the roofline, crawl space or slab edge, irrigation heads and any mulch piled against siding. Active problems get an eco-friendly treatment, and you receive a practical punch list, such as screens, sealant and regrading, to make the house less inviting.
