Pest Control

About us

Alternative Pest Control is your best solution to pest problems in the South Texas Hill Country. We are located in northern Comal County but extend beyond those geographical limits. We are licensed in General Residential Pest Control specializing in Scorpion Control service plans. We are also licensed in Lawn and Ornamental, Weed and Termite categories. Our services include Wood Destroying Insect Inspections as well as all aspects of Termite control and foundation pretreatments. Tree services include Ball Moss and Fall Webworm remediation. Commercial Pest Control services are offered as well as counseling to help those do it yourselfers out there. We are all Licensed Certified Applicators. When your home, family or property is threatened by pests or an infestation, you want a pest control company to take care of you when you need them, not when you might fit into their schedule. You want someone who goes beyond removing bugs and pests from a specific location. You want a professional who takes the time to investigate the source of your pest problem so it doesn't become a long-term or more costly issue. Since 1988 Alternative Pest Control has been doing just that. Now based in Canyon Lake, Texas, and serving the Comal County area, APC delivers honest and reliable pest control services to residential, multi-family and commercial customers. We invest in building relationships which allows us to deliver pest control solutions, not just treatments. You see, we believe that we do more than simply help you eliminate pest issues. We deliver customer care with quality solutions that help you protect the things that are most important to you: your family, your home and your property.

Scorpions are not easily controlled with a Quarterly service. The fact that they are sluggish between the services is awesome!

This is a wonderful family-owned and operated small business! We have used them for years and have been extremely pleased! Their product is the very best for and quot;taking outand quot; South Texas critters.....and, we have never had to call them to come back before our regularly scheduled maintenance. We recommend them to fellow hill country neighbors all the time!
