Helpful FAQs
What San Antonio neighborhoods do you serve?
We are proud to provide pest control services to our neighbors throughout San Antonio, including homeowners in Monte Vista, Highland Park, Beacon Hill, King William, Tobin Hill, Dignowity Hill, Alazan-Apache, Southtown, Oakwell Farms, and Monte Cristo.
Are your treatments pet- and kid-friendly?
Absolutely. You can rest assured that our treatments are both kid- and pet-friendly, and that our Field Experts will prioritize the well-being of your family through every step of the pest control process. We recommend keeping kids and pets away from treated areas until they have completely dried. This usually takes around 30 minutes for outdoor treatments (depending on the weather), and between 1 and 3 hours indoors (depending on airflow in your home). If you keep aquariums, terrariums, or bird cages in your home, we may provide you with a few additional recommendations.
What are the most common pests in San Antonio?
San Antonio’s warm climate and varied landscapes make it a hotspot for many types of pests. Homeowners often deal with ants, mosquitoes, and termites, which thrive in the heat and humidity. Cockroaches and rodents are also common, entering homes in search of food and shelter. Spiders, scorpions, and ticks are common in yards and wooded areas, while wasps and bees like to construct nests around homes.
With so many stubborn pest species in San Antonio, professional pest control is essential for lasting protection.
Should I hire a professional pest control expert or will store-bought products do the trick?
While you can attempt DIY pest control, most store-bought sprays and traps only deal with the pests you can see. Many insects, rodents, and other pests remain hidden, continuing to multiply and cause damage from behind the scenes.
Moxie’s professional Field Experts can locate nests, apply targeted treatments and create a plan to help keep pests from returning. With regular visits and expert strategies, professional pest control offers long-term results that are difficult to achieve with retail products alone.
Do you treat for mosquitoes in San Antonio?
Yes, we’re happy to help homeowners with mosquito problems in San Antonio, where warm weather, frequent rain, and ample standing water help mosquitoes breed and thrive.
To combat mosquitoes, we apply monthly fogging treatments designed to eliminate active swarms. We also install In2Care Stations, discreet devices that get rid of mosquitoes while they are still larvae. Together, these treatments help break the mosquito life cycle, keeping current populations down while preventing new ones from taking hold.
Our Field Experts will service your In2Care Stations every 21 to 30 days to help keep your yard comfortable throughout the season.
What types of spiders do you help control in San Antonio?
Our team helps control common species like house spiders, wolf spiders, and orb-weavers, as well as venomous spiders such as the brown recluse and black widow. We train extensively on spider behavior and the best strategies to control them. By identifying hiding places, treating problem areas, and reducing conditions that attract them, we keep spider populations under control to spare you from unwelcome encounters and give you greater peace of mind around your home.
How does the South Texas climate affect pest activity?
scorpions, fire ants, and spiders. The warm temperatures in and around San Antonio accelerate insect metabolism and reproduction, spurring rapid growth in populations. Dry conditions drive rodents and other pests to seek food and water indoors, increasing the risk of pest infestations. Professional pest control services help identify and eliminate these persistent pests, creating barriers that keep them from returning and helping make your home truly feel like yours again.
How do seasonal shifts affect pest activity in San Antonio?
In San Antonio, seasonal shifts strongly influence pest activity. Spring encourages ants, mosquitoes, and termites, as warmth speeds up their metabolism and moisture creates ideal breeding grounds. Summer heat keeps cold-blooded insects like mosquitoes, fleas, and cockroaches active, while scorpions and spiders move indoors to escape the heat.
In fall, rodents and spiders move inside for warmth and food. Winter slows many insects, but cockroaches, rodents, and some spiders stay active indoors. Professional pest control helps manage these seasonal surges, targeting the right pests at the right time and helping you enjoy peace of mind year-round.
Why am I seeing more pests right after my first treatment?
An increase in pest activity right after the first treatment is expected and is a sign that the treatment is working. The initial treatment disrupts pests and sends them fleeing from their hiding spaces and out into the open. After a follow-up treatment, you can expect to see a sharp decline in activity. If you notice that pests are active between scheduled visits, Moxie offers free warranty reservice visits to customers on our year-round plan.
What to expect
At the beginning of your initial service, your Field Expert will ensure that the service is tailored to your specific needs, so if you have problems such as ants in the kitchen or spiders in the garage, please let us know. This allows us to provide solutions to effectively treat your home.
