Precision Pest Control services both sides of Pflugerville, the older homes near downtown on land the Pfluger family once settled, and the newer subdivisions pushing out toward Toll 130. Those two settings do not share the same pest problems, so our technicians treat them differently instead of running one plan across the whole city. Property age and construction type decide the approach here, not the zip code.


In older sections near downtown Pflugerville, we treat mature landscaping and pier and beam foundations for ants, spiders, and wasps and bees nesting under eaves that have had decades to settle in. Newer subdivisions closer to Toll 130 bring a different mix, freshly graded lots that push opossums and snakes toward the yards left standing before landscaping fills in, along with earwigs and mosquitoes breeding in retention ponds common to new development. Both sides of town deal with ants and spiders, but where they nest and how we access the structure changes with the age of the build.
Downtown Pflugerville still carries the layout the Pfluger family set down when they settled the area in the 1800s, older homes on mature lots with established trees, pier and beam foundations, and decades of landscaping that gives ants, spiders, and wasps plenty of established territory to work from. A wasp or bee colony in this part of town has often been building a nest in the same eave or fascia gap for more than one season, and pier and beam construction gives spiders and ants crawl space access that a slab home simply does not have. We treat these properties by working the crawl space first, then the exterior nesting sites, because that order matches how the structure is actually built.
Head out toward the newer subdivisions closer to Toll 130 and State Highway 45, and the job changes completely. Fresh grading and cleared lots push opossums and snakes toward the yards that remain, since natural cover nearby has been reduced, and new landscaping beds have not matured enough yet to hold their own pest pressure the way an older yard does. Retention ponds and drainage features built into these subdivisions hold water after storms, which is exactly what earwigs and mosquitoes need to establish. Slab foundations mean no crawl space to check, so exterior perimeter work and sealing gaps around new construction siding matter more here than anything happening underneath the house.
