Pest control in Bastrop
Buildings with rodent or termite infestations fall within Bastrop's published nuisance definition for improperly maintained buildings. The ordinance also covers premises kept in a condition likely to attract or harbor mosquitoes, rodents, vermin or disease-carrying pests, and private swimming pools maintained in an unsafe or unsanitary condition. For water that can't be emptied or covered, Bastrop County Public Health's mosquito notice recommends larvicidal mosquito dunks. Its mosquito-information contact email is public.health@co.bastrop.tx.us.
For a termite proposal, Texas Department of Agriculture requirements call for a written diagram showing treatment areas, approximate perimeter measurements and active or previous termite activity. The written disclosure must include the chemical label, warranty terms and either the liquid termiticide concentration or the minimum count of baiting systems. Warranty information must spell out coverage, duration, renewal options and cost, retreatment and repair obligations, and conditions that could void coverage. Bastrop Code Compliance is at 1311 Chestnut Street, open Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, with phone (512) 332-8864.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Bastrop
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.
