Local rules to know
In Texas, licenses for pest control come from the Texas Department of Agriculture, which has an online license search. Ask what product will be used, where it will be applied, and how long kids and pets should stay away.
Older homes may still have original cast iron drain lines. Your water bill comes from the City of Richardson, sewage is handled by the city's sewer system, with treatment by the North Texas Municipal Water District, and the City of Richardson Building Inspection department issues building permits. Many homes are mid-century ranch houses from the 1950s and 1960s.
What Richardson housing means for pest control
The Telecom Corridor along Central Expressway grew in the 1970s and 1980s. Cottonwood Park hosts the Cottonwood Art Festival.
The University of Texas at Dallas is in Richardson. Crawl spaces and basements in homes from this era can stay damp, which attracts insects that like moisture. Richardson spans Dallas and Collin counties.
Fire ants, roaches and mosquitoes are common in warm months, and mice look for a way in when it turns cold. Spring storms bring hail.
