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!
Lake Livingston draws people for the water, the fishing, the peaceful environment. It’s a great place to live or have a weekend place.
But lakefront living comes with serious pest pressure. Mosquitoes breed near the water. Fire ants love the sandy soil. Termites thrive in the humidity. Spiders, wasps, rodents – they’re all drawn to lake properties.
We’ve been protecting Lake Livingston homes and cabins since 2006. We know what it takes.
If you’re on or near Lake Livingston, mosquitoes make summers miserable. They breed in any standing water, rest in vegetation, and swarm at dusk.
You can’t enjoy your deck. Kids can’t play outside. Evening fishing trips turn into getting eaten alive.
Our Mosquito Duo Defense program uses monthly barrier treatments and In2Care breeding control. Makes a massive difference in how much you can actually use your property.
Sandy lakefront soil is perfect for fire ants. They build mounds in yards, around docks, near walkways. Step on one and you’re in pain for days.
Our Premium and Elite plans include broadcast fire ant treatment up to 20,000 sq ft. Keeps populations suppressed so your property is usable.
Orb weavers build giant webs between trees and across walkways. Wolf spiders hunt at night on decks. Black widows hide under boats, in storage areas, around docks.
We treat where spiders actually live – not just spray baseboards. Vegetation, under structures, harborage areas. That’s where it matters.
Lakefront humidity creates perfect conditions for termites. Homes, cabins, docks, decks – all at risk.
We inspect for termites, treat active infestations with Termidor liquid treatment, and install Sentricon monitoring systems for long-term protection.
Mice and rats love lake properties – food, water, shelter. They nest in storage areas, chew wiring in boats and equipment, contaminate stored items.
Raccoons, squirrels, possums – they get into attics and crawlspaces. We trap, remove, and seal entry points.
Essential or Premium Plan works for most year-round homes. Quarterly treatments handle everyday pests. Premium adds rodent control and fire ant treatment.
Bundle mosquito service during warm months – most full-time residents do because mosquitoes are constant near the water.
Pests move in when you’re not there. Spiders take over. Wasps build nests. Rodents find their way inside.
Quarterly service keeps things under control between your visits. We can coordinate timing with when you use the property.
Highest pest pressure. Right on the water means maximum mosquito exposure. Moisture issues attract carpenter ants and termites. Spiders love the environment.
Premium or Elite Plan recommended. More comprehensive coverage for waterfront challenges.
Guests don’t want to deal with pests. Bad reviews mention bugs and mosquitoes. Regular pest control protects your investment and reputation.
We work with rental property owners across Lake Livingston. Flexible scheduling around bookings.
Quarterly pest control for ants, roaches, spiders, and common invaders. Inside and outside treatments. Web and wasp removal up to 15 feet. Re-service guarantee if covered pests return.
Everything in Essential plus exterior rodent stations, fire ant treatment up to 20,000 sq ft, and wasp nest removal up to 30 feet. Better for lake properties with consistent pest pressure.
Complete protection. Everything above plus Sentricon termite monitoring and carpenter ant treatment. Total peace of mind for your lake property.
Bundle mosquito control or lawn service with any plan and save 10%.
Paper wasps, red wasps, mud daubers – they nest under eaves, on boats, around docks, on porch furniture. Aggressive and dangerous when disturbed.
We remove nests as part of regular service. Essential up to 15 feet, Premium and Elite up to 30 feet.
Moisture from the lake environment attracts ants. They follow plumbing, trail along foundations, and set up colonies near your house.
We find and treat the colony – not just kill the ones marching across your counter.
Big black ants tunneling through wood. Common in lake properties with moisture problems, leaky pipes, or damaged wood.
Included in Elite Plan. Additional service for Essential or Premium customers.
If your property has woods nearby, fleas and ticks are a problem. They ride in on wildlife and pets, then infest your yard.
We treat yards and outdoor areas. Combined with pet prevention from your vet, keeps them under control.
We’ve been serving Lake Livingston since 2006. We understand waterfront properties and the specific pest challenges they face.
