I contacted Critter Gitters this morning to help me eradicate a huge wasp nest on the front of my house and around the eaves of my roof. They kindly came out a couple of hours later, killed all of the wasps, and sent me a picture of the nests. Now THAT’S service!!! Wouldn’t use anyone else!! Thanks Lane for your help and awesome service!

We have used Critter Gitters for years and wouldn’t think to go elsewhere. They are extremely detail oriented, down to the de-webbing of the whole exterior of our home. They are always extremely professional and punctual (which is a huge must for us). I couldn’t recommend a better company than Critter Gitters!

Joey Baker was highly recommended by the realtor who sold me my house. I saw what looked like termites, but Joey came right away and identified carpenter ants. I saved some dead ones in a zip lock bag for him to look at. He and his team treated the inside and outside of the house. It only took 2 treatments to get rid of the little critters. Don't do what I did. When they first started trailing out of the wall, I sprayed pesticide on them. Joey let me know to let them trail, otherwise they will go back in and make another colony.

I love Bentley's more every day. They called to offer a special for winter HVAC check which was great for me since I just bought this house and it wasn't previously maintained well. We found I needed a drain line flow switch, and they went and picked one up and came back within minutes. They also offer a service agreement for 2 visits per year, which includes cleaning the condenser unit, 10% off parts and no after hour rates. We are going to pull/clean the evaporator until and blower wheel next visit. Bentley's is professional and shows up when they say they will. I love the reminders and having an invoice with the detail is awesome. Their team is very personable and easy to work with. What I really love is if they see something wrong, they tell you up front, instead of waiting until something breaks down (unlike my last AC vendor). Thank you Bentley's for taking such good care of my new home and my wallet!

Crockett sits at the heart of Houston County — a growing community of homes, farms, and small businesses surrounded by East Texas pine forest and river bottomland. That geography creates one of the most pest-diverse environments in the state. Termites thrive in the humid soil. Fire ants blanket open pastureland. Carpenter ants hollow through pine lumber in older homes. Mosquitoes breed in every low-lying drainage area from spring through late fall.
Critter Gitters Pest Control has served the Crockett area since 2006, operating under Texas Pest Control License TPCL #13381. We are not a franchise dispatching technicians from three counties away. Our service team knows Houston County’s pest seasons, soil conditions, and construction styles — and we build treatment plans around what’s actually happening on your specific property.
Call us at 936-546-7493 or request a free estimate online. We offer same-week scheduling throughout Crockett and surrounding Houston County communities.
Houston County’s landscape creates conditions that sustain large, year-round pest populations. Unlike drier regions of Texas, Crockett receives consistent rainfall — averaging over 45 inches annually — which keeps soil moist and termite colonies active across all seasons. The Neches River corridor to the east and Davy Crockett National Forest to the north act as wildlife and insect highways, pushing pressure into the residential streets of downtown Crockett and surrounding neighborhoods.
Older homes in the historic district often have pier-and-beam foundations, crawl spaces, and wood-framed walls — all ideal conditions for subterranean termites and carpenter ants. Newer subdivisions pushing outward from Loop 304 sit on cleared land where fire ant mounds appear within weeks of ground disturbance. Agricultural properties south and west of town face constant rodent intrusion as fields are harvested.
Bottom line: Crockett’s pest pressure is not seasonal — it is year-round, multi-species, and property-type specific. That is why a one-size-fits-all spray service is not enough.
