Residential Pest Control
Ants, roaches, spiders, scorpions, crickets, wasps, fleas, ticks. Quarterly Zero Gap treatment™, the foundation of Forterra's treatment plan.
Learn more about residential pest control →Whether it is roaches behind the fridge, ants along the baseboards or spiders in the garage, pest control in Dallas begins by sealing the gaps pests use, then treating inside and out. Re-treatment between visits is free.
A century of building means the house next door to yours can be four decades older and fail in ways yours never will, and anyone treating Dallas the same way street to street is guessing. Forterra trains its own W-2 technicians on construction rather than the neighborhood, so a pier-and-beam bungalow, a sixties ranch and a new build each get the right work, with kid-friendly and pet-friendly products. Entry points close with the Zero Gap System™, under Texas Pest Control License TPCL #850046.
Forterra has operated since 2021, and the Dallas office, open since 2025, runs the company's largest coverage map with employee exterminators licensed in Texas and documented visits, carrying its share of the ★ 5.0 record over 569 reviews one address at a time. City-center placement keeps the whole spread inside honest windows, and the account system never forgets a gate code. That makes it the local pest control company closest to most addresses in Dallas, TX.

This office sees the common pests of Dallas, TX, from urban roaches to greenbelt mosquitoes. Pre-war foundations let in the classic insects and bugs, creek corridors move rodents, White Rock Lake stretches the mosquito months, and shared walls pass roaches between condos. German cockroaches and fire ants, whose stings send kids and pets indoors, top the call list. Each pest below has its own Dallas page covering what an infestation looks like, how we treat it and the damage it can do.
Quarterly residential pest control anchors the Dallas work, with rodent removal and exclusion for older foundations, preservation-conscious sealing for the historic districts, seasonal mosquito programs for the lake and greenbelt blocks, and termite inspections and WDI reports that keep pace with closing calendars. Most homes need only the quarterly plan for everyday bugs. Your technician adds other pest control services when the property calls for them, so each home gets a customized treatment plan and pest management that fits its construction.
Most DFW pest companies hide prices to size you up. We don't. Here's what our four core services cost, no hidden surprises. A 12-month plan takes about $200 off your first service, or go month to month at the full first-service price. We do one-time treatments too.

In a dense city the bugs next door reach your slab eventually, so sealing every outside gap to the golf-ball standard keeps your family clear of the neighbors' pest decisions. From pre-war pier-and-beam to high-rise slab, the survey reads each construction era honestly and closes what it finds, while each quarterly pest control visit renews the barrier that protects your home from the city's shared pressure. Prevention at the exterior stops most infestations long before they reach the interior.
Your tech walks all 6 zones, foundation, eaves, entry points, doors/windows, garage, yard, and logs what they find. They're then able to customize the treatment.
Perimeter treatment at the foundation, eave sweep, targeted spot treatments in high-pressure zones. We use the minimum effective product, not the maximum billable volume.
This is the part everyone else skips. Weep holes, utility penetrations and seals that failed years ago, each closed with the material that suits it. It's slower. It's better. And it stays with your house forever.
Before we leave, you get a detailed report of what was treated, what was sealed, and what we flagged for the next visit. See a pest between services? Text us. We come back free.

The Dallas office answers more calls than any other, and the frequent questions about pest control in Dallas, TX live below, from coverage and older homes to termites, high-rises and storm season. Anything specific to your block or building reaches (972) 349-1621 on weekdays, becomes a permanent account note, then becomes an appointment. Every answer below comes from calls across North Texas, so it covers the bugs and stings Dallas families actually ask about.
By working to construction rather than to a map. Twenty-seven cities and twelve Dallas neighborhoods sit under this office, and sorting them by area would be meaningless because a single street can hold three different kinds of building. Grouping homes by construction makes the coverage manageable, and your exterminator brings the same pest control and protection from one side of Dallas, TX to the other.
Not the same plan at all, though the same standard. A pier-and-beam neighbor loses ground beneath the floor while a post-war slab gives way at the joints instead, and the two want different work done in entirely different places. The inspection on the first visit shows where each house lets pests in, so the plan targets its real pest problems instead of treating every house on the street alike.
With Sentricon bait stations as the main option and a liquid soil treatment as the other. Liquid costs more upfront and suits someone who wants to pay once, though keeping its warranty means a yearly renewal. Bait stations get a yearly check, with bait added only when termites are feeding. Either way, the free termite inspection comes first and shows whether termites have already caused damage, and the warranty comes from Forterra itself.
Yes, and pest control starts with your own unit. German roaches, the bugs condo owners call about most, spread through shared walls, plumbing chases and electrical boxes in Dallas condos, so your technician places gel bait and a growth regulator in kitchens and baths and seals gaps around pipes. The first service carries a surcharge. An infestation clears fastest when the neighbors treat too, so asking your HOA to coordinate the building helps a lot.
Then the pest control guarantee protects you. If pests come back between visits, your technician returns and treats again at no charge. If three re-treatments in a row still have not solved it, Forterra refunds your most recent payment. Those terms sit in writing on the plan rather than resting on a phone call, and nobody asks you to argue for a return visit.
Dallas lawns give them exactly what they want, open sun, irrigated turf and clay soil that holds moisture after rain. Mounds pop up within days of a storm, often along sidewalks, driveways and the edges of beds. Disturbing one brings hundreds of stinging workers out at once, so check play areas before anyone runs barefoot. Your exterminator can treat single mounds or the whole lawn with a granular bait the workers carry home.
Yes, mostly roaches and the occasional ant colony, since bugs reach kitchens even thirty floors up. German roaches travel through trash chutes, plumbing chases and deliveries, and they settle behind refrigerators and dishwashers in Dallas high-rise kitchens. Mice are rare above the lower floors. Your technician baits the kitchen and baths, adds a treatment that stops roaches breeding, seals gaps around pipes, and checks the balcony for wasp nests before anyone gets stung.
Three, in a predictable order. Ants come first, since flooded nests outside send colonies indoors within a day. American roaches follow when sewer lines surge and push them up through floor drains and cleanouts. About a week later, biting mosquitoes hatch from every container and low spot the storm filled. In Dallas, TX, dumping standing water within a few days and running water into unused drains prevents most of that. Your technician handles any bugs or infestation that follows.
No phone call. No credit card up front. See the real price for your home, pick a start date, and a technician will be at your door in about two business days.
