What we treat

Exterminator Services We Offer in Lewisville

Mosquitoes, Fire Ants and Termites Around Lewisville Lake and the Elm Fork

Southern house mosquitoes

Mosquito Control in Lewisville

West Nile virus is carried by mosquitoes, and Texas DSHS reports that about 80 percent of infected people stay well while roughly 1 in 150 get the severe neurological form. Warmer parts of Texas see risk year-round. Beside a lake and creek floodplain, empty containers, clogged gutters, old tires and low yard spots deserve the first look, because those are the breeding places a Dallas County health page lists.

Red imported fire ants

Fire Ant Control in Lewisville

Rising water makes fire ants leave their mounds and settle in dark, dry spots, which the Texas fire ant program says can be indoors. A mound with no central hole, built of soft soil and rarely over 18 inches wide, marks a colony. To test whether bait is fresh and ants are foraging, set out a bit of bait, or a potato chip, and see if ants cover it within 45 to 60 minutes.

Subterranean termites

Subterranean Termite Control in Lewisville

AgriLife says termites need a moisture source, and it lists leaks from roofs, plumbing, gutters and air conditioner condensers. It also warns that irrigation beside the foundation can attract them. Slope soil away from the house, remove wood scraps and stumps near the slab, and set wooden steps on concrete footings that lift them 6 inches clear of the ground.

Smokybrown and Oriental cockroaches

Cockroach Control in Lewisville

AgriLife describes the smokybrown cockroach as an outdoor species of humid Texas that hides in mulch, ground cover, soffits and attic eaves, then wanders inside. The Oriental cockroach, about 1 1/4 inches long, prefers cool, damp ground-level spots such as crawl spaces and floor drains. Both respond to keeping drain traps full, screening soffits and baiting beds.

Paper wasps

Wasp Nest Removal in Lewisville

The Texas Insects guide says a paper wasp nest is a single open comb of hexagonal cells hanging by one stalk, holding about 20 to 30 adults at maturity. Each spring a queen picks the spot and starts it, and the colony declines in late summer. For a nest hanging from an eave it suggests a high-pressure water spray from a distance, with people and pets kept away.

Seasonal Pest Control in Lewisville

  1. Spring, March to May

    Termite swarmers show up between early spring and early summer, according to AgriLife, and paper wasp founding queens start fresh nests on eaves and rails. Spring rain fills the creek channels and yard low spots, which is when mosquito larvae first show up.

  2. Summer, June to September

    Mosquito numbers build wherever water stands, and wasp nests reach their largest size. In a drought, fire ants head for moisture around water heaters and laundry rooms, so Lewisville homes beside the lake feel the pressure from both ends.

  3. Fall, October to November

    Paper wasp queens look for sheltered places to overwinter, such as wall cracks. Fire ant bait applied from late August through October, according to the Texas program, holds colonies down until spring, and cooler nights push rodents toward attics.

Lewisville Pest Control FAQ

Looking for pest control near you in Lewisville? Call (512) 561-7451 or request a free estimate.

What makes Lewisville so mosquito-prone?

The city has a large reservoir, the Elm Fork delta and several creeks, so water sits in many places. Dallas County lists pots, tires, gutters, drains and low landscape spots as breeding sites. Empty them weekly, keep screens tight and use repellent at dusk and dawn.

What do fire ant mounds look like in Lewisville?

They are heaps of loose soil with no central opening, seldom wider than 18 inches. The Texas fire ant program says disturbed ants swarm up vertical surfaces and sting together, leaving white pustules. Avoid stepping on mounds, and treat the yard with bait before dealing with individual mounds.

Do wet yards near Lewisville Lake attract termites?

Moisture is a draw. AgriLife says termites need water, and leaks, clogged gutters and irrigation spraying a foundation can supply it. Slope the soil so water runs off, move wood piles off the slab and have a professional inspect the home yearly.

What is the roach I find outside Lewisville homes?

It is often a smokybrown cockroach, which AgriLife says lives in mulch, ground cover and soffits in humid parts of Texas. It is dark brown and wings reach past the abdomen. Screen soffits, keep mulch thin near walls and bait garden beds.

What do Lewisville pest plans cost?

You can start at $57, and the total depends on the size of the property and the pests you are seeing. A free estimate comes before any work. Phone (512) 561-7451 or send an estimate request from our website, with a note on the problem.

Do you offer pre-sale inspections in Lewisville?

Yes, we can inspect a Lewisville house or building before it changes hands. The visit looks at wood, the foundation, the attic and signs of rodents, and everyone involved gets the same findings. Schedule it online and tell us the closing date if you have one.

Can you service a Lewisville business?

Yes. We work with Lewisville restaurants, retail stores, offices and warehouses. Kitchens, drains, loading doors and landscaped beds that hold water are the usual trouble spots. We use eco-friendly products, and a free estimate can be requested through our website.

How do I remove a wasp nest from my Lewisville porch?

Texas A&M says a paper wasp nest hanging from an eave can be dislodged with a strong spray of water from a distance, with everyone kept away. The whole colony rests on the nest at night, so work in daylight with caution, or call us if stings could be dangerous in your household.

Lewisville, Texas

Why Lewisville Is a Hotspot for Pests

Lewisville is a lake city: more than 6 of its roughly 43 square miles are water, and creeks feed the Elm Fork of the Trinity. Soggy ground and long, humid summers help mosquitoes, ants and roaches multiply close to homes.

Lewisville counted 111,822 residents in the 2020 census. The city sits at the southern end of Denton County, at roughly 463 feet, on the northern edge of the Dallas to Fort Worth area. The Garza to Little Elm Dam, finished in 1954, created Lewisville Lake, and Lewisville Lake Park covers 662 acres on its shore. Castle Hills joined the city in November 2021.

Prairie Creek and Timber Creek flow toward the Elm Fork, and Timber Creek can overflow in heavy rain. Average rainfall is about 37.8 inches, and the city lies in the eastern Cross Timbers with a humid subtropical climate. Standing water, wet soil and warm weather suit the pests that follow moisture.

What Makes Lewisville Different for Pest Control

Lake moisture and creek flooding around Lewisville homes

Local conditions decide where pests live and how they get in. These are the Lewisville details that shape every plan we write here.

  1. Near Timber Creek, Prairie Creek and the Elm Fork delta, the ground can stay wet long after a storm. AgriLife says termites survive for long periods wherever moisture is present, so downspouts that dump water at the slab, leaking hose bibs and soggy mulch matter more here than in drier cities.

  2. We look at drainage, wood touching soil, soffits and gaps around utilities on every first visit. Active pests get eco-friendly treatment, and you get a short list of fixes, such as grading, gutter extensions or sealing, that cut down what draws bugs to your house.
