- Residential Pest ControlTexas is home to many types of spiders, insects, and rodents. Unfortunately, these critters don't just stay outside. They regularly find their way into our homes to forage for food, water, and shelter. Maintaining a pest-free home in the Corpus Christi area is best done by learning about our region's most common pests and implementing professional residential pest control services year-round.
- Commercial Pest ControlServing Corpus Christi and the surrounding areas since 1994, Corpest Services provides home and commercial pest control services to the Coastal Bend. We are a family-owned business with certified technicians who each have more than 20 years of experience in the pest management industry. We pride ourselves on providing prompt, fast, and in many cases, same-day service to our customers.
- AntsIf you ask someone to name an insect, their answer will likely be an ant. The reason is that ants are one of the most common insects people have contact with, either outside or inside their homes. Ants can live almost anywhere, from a garden to open sunny yards to a crack in the pavement to a wall void. Because they are so common, it is easy to overlook them, but the truth is that ants are one of the most frustrating household pests to try to keep away!
- SpidersAll of our Corpus Christi homes are vulnerable to spiders. With around 900 species of spiders in Texas, it's safe to say that at least one will find its way into your yard and eventually into your home. Our yards offer these shy, reclusive creatures plenty of places to burrow or build their webs, like trees, shrubbery, yard clutter, and the exterior of our homes. Though most spiders you come into contact with are harmless, it doesn't mean you want to share your home with these eight-legged, creepy critters.
- TermitesWhile our basic home pest control covers many pests that other pest control companies don’t, our services don’t stop there. If you experience issues with or termites, we offer the services you need to protect your home from these pests as well.
- CockroachesYou know the feeling of dread if you have ever spotted a cockroach scurrying across your kitchen counter or have seen its long antennae peaking out behind a loose bathroom tile. Cockroaches are one of the most unpleasant pests for Corpus Cristi homeowners to discover in their homes. When cockroaches invade, they contaminate our food, spread pathogens and allergens, produce foul odors, and multiply quickly. Cockroaches are scavenging pests and live in areas that put them in constant contact with dangerous bacteria, like sewers, drains, bathrooms, and trash piles.Â
- Silverfish
- BeesStinging insects in Texas, like bees, are responsible for pollination, while others, like wasps, are predators and help control nuisance insect populations. Stinging insects are outdoor pests and find their way to any property that meets their needs. Unfortunately, our Corpus Cristi yards often supply bees, wasps, and other stinging insects with reliable food, water, and shelter sources.
- Wasps
- Earwigs
- FliesSpiders are predators feeding on and helping to control populations of insects. Outside, in our yards in controlled numbers, spiders typically aren't a problem; and provide a free form of pest control. However, when spiders follow their insect prey (flies, ants, and cockroaches) into our homes, they become unwanted pests, and you need to take action to remove the spiders and their prey from your house. Spider infestations are typically the result of a widespread pest infestation on your property; regular pest control services are the best way to avoid problems with spiders and common household pests!
- Centipedes
- Millipedes
- Beetles
- Stinging InsectsThe biggest thing that attracts any pest to our properties is food. Depending on the species, stinging insects feed on insects, nectar, sweets, honeydew produced by garden aphids, and things they scavenge from our trash cans. Properties with many gardens, woodpiles, garbage cans, and outdoor eating areas have the most problems with stinging insects. Stinging insects swarming our yards is not only unpleasant but dangerous. These insects deliver painful venom-filled stings that can trigger severe allergic reactions in people.Â
- Aphids
- Pill Bugs
- Sow Bugs
- RodentsClear away clutter and yard debris that will offer rodents hiding spots and camouflage their presence on your property.
- MiceA rodent infestation can happen any time of year; these animals want to survive, and our homes provide a place to escape from harsh temperatures, predators, and other dangers. Unfortunately, rodents in our homes provide us with no benefits. Rodents contaminate surfaces and food with pathogens and bacteria that make people ill. Both mice and rats are destructive, and their teeth will damage wiring, pipes, clothing, boxes, rugs, and furniture.Â
- RatsMany types of rodents live across our large state of Texas; some will never find their way to our homes, and others are frequent visitors. Mice and rats are rodents that have developed a close relationship with people and want to share our homes. These small mammals have discovered that our yards, trash cans, kitchens, and outdoor eating areas provide them with an almost never-ending buffet, and they won't hesitate to take advantage.Â
