Pest control in Angleton
Rodent harborage in Angleton falls under Code Enforcement. The city's health code also prohibits vegetation of any height that becomes a breeding place for flies or insects or harms public health. Weeds, grass or brush can't grow above 14 inches on premises you control or the adjoining unpaved street right-of-way. An agricultural-use defense applies to this height rule. If an owner fails to remedy a covered nuisance after notice, the city may perform the work and charge the owner, with expenses assessed against the real estate.
City abatement and assessed expenses don't shield the owner or occupant from prosecution for the nuisance violation. If you're hiring a company to use pesticides against rodents at a structure, Texas Department of Agriculture licensing requires the Pest control category. For the local property conditions, the Development Services director's contact is 979-849-4364 extension 2108.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Angleton
Texas cities don't license pest control companies. TDA's Structural Pest Control Service licenses the business, its certified applicators and its technicians, and state law bars a city from adopting its own rules on pesticide sale or use, apart from exceptions such as fire and building rules for fumigation. Ask for the company's TDA business license number before anyone treats the house.
