Pest control in Sherman
Sherman doesn't spray for mosquitoes. It cites risks to people, pets and plant life. The city emphasizes prevention and education, including finding and removing breeding sources at home. Grayson County's homeowner guidance includes eliminating water from leaking plumbing, outdoor faucets and rain gutters. For water-holding containers, the Texas Department of State Health Services recommends emptying or removal at least weekly, with larvicide dunks for water you can't empty. For nuisance mosquito treatment purchased by a homeowner or homeowners association, a company needs structural licensing in the Pest category from the Texas Department of Agriculture. Grayson County Health Department provides mosquito-prevention information through its Sherman office at 515 N. Walnut and (903)893-0131.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Sherman
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.
