Pest control in Grapevine
Grapevine residents can get mosquito larvicide dunks at the Municipal Service Center, 501 Shady Brook Drive. Dunks are the Texas DSHS recommendation for water you can't empty around a Grapevine home. Empty containers weekly or remove them. Wading-pool and birdbath water should be changed several times each week. The city works with Tarrant County on West Nile prevention, sampling and testing mosquitoes weekly from April through November and using a rotating trap site to assess areas of concern.
After West Nile-positive samples, Grapevine follows Tarrant County Public Health recommendations for ground spraying, with advance notice to residents through Civic Ready calls, the city website and city social channels. A company selling homeowners nuisance mosquito treatment needs the Texas Department of Agriculture's structural license category of Pest.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Grapevine
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.
