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 Conroe brings people to Montgomery County. Waterfront homes, weekend retreats, year-round lakefront living. Beautiful area. Great for boating and fishing. Peaceful environment.
But lakefront living means higher pest pressure. Mosquitoes breeding near the water. Fire ants in sandy lakefront soil. Spiders everywhere. Termites threatening structures in humid conditions. Rodents and wildlife finding entry points.
We’ve been handling pest control around Lake Conroe since 2006. We know lakefront properties and what they need.
If you’re on or near Lake Conroe, mosquitoes are relentless from April through October. They breed in standing water, storm drains, boat covers, and anywhere moisture collects. Makes outdoor time miserable without treatment.
Our Mosquito Duo Defense program uses monthly barrier treatments and In2Care breeding site control. Reduces populations significantly so you can enjoy your dock, deck, and yard without constant swatting.
Sandy soil around Lake Conroe is perfect for fire ants. They build mounds in yards, near docks, around boat storage, in landscaping. Painful stings. Aggressive behavior. Colonies spread fast.
Our Premium and Elite plans include fire ant treatment up to 20,000 sq ft. Keeps populations suppressed year-round so your property stays safe for family, guests, and pets.
Orb weavers spinning massive webs across walkways to your dock. Wolf spiders on decks after dark. Black widows hiding under boats and in storage areas.
Lakefront properties attract spiders because insect activity is high near the water. We treat vegetation, under structures, around foundations – where spiders actually live and breed.
Lake humidity plus wood structures equals serious termite risk. Homes, cabins, docks, boathouses – all vulnerable to termite damage over time if not protected.
We inspect for termites, treat active infestations with Termidor liquid applications, and install Sentricon monitoring systems for ongoing protection and early detection.
Mice and rats love lakefront properties. Food, water, and hiding spots everywhere. They nest in storage areas, boat storage, sheds, attics. Chew wiring, contaminate stored items, breed rapidly.
We trap inside structures, place bait stations outside strategically, and seal entry points to stop them from getting in.
Essential or Premium Plan works for most full-time lake residents. Quarterly treatments handle ants, roaches, spiders, and everyday pests. Premium adds rodent control and fire ant treatment.
Add monthly mosquito service during warm months – most waterfront homeowners do because mosquitoes are constant near the lake and impossible to ignore without treatment.
If you’re not there full-time, pests move in while you’re gone. Spiders take over interiors. Wasps build nests on furniture and fixtures. Rodents find ways inside.
Quarterly service keeps things controlled between visits. We can coordinate timing so your property is ready when you arrive.
Highest pest pressure of any property type. Direct water access means maximum mosquito exposure. Humidity attracts carpenter ants and termites. Spiders thrive in the environment.
Premium or Elite Plan recommended for waterfront Lake Conroe properties. More comprehensive coverage for the unique challenges of living directly on the water.
Lake Conroe has properties from different decades. Older homes often have gaps, moisture damage from humidity, and wood deterioration that pests exploit.
We treat for pests and identify problem areas. Heavy exclusion or structural repair work gets quoted separately from regular pest service.
Quarterly pest control for ants, roaches, spiders, and common invaders. Interior and exterior treatments. Web and wasp nest removal up to 15 feet. Re-service guarantee between visits.
Everything in Essential plus exterior rodent bait stations, fire ant treatment up to 20,000 sq ft, and wasp nest removal up to 30 feet. Better for lakefront properties with consistent pest pressure.
Complete protection package. Everything above plus Sentricon termite monitoring and carpenter ant treatment. Total peace of mind for your Lake Conroe property.
Bundle mosquito control or lawn service with any plan and save 10% on both services.
Paper wasps, red wasps, mud daubers – they build nests under eaves, on boats, around docks, on outdoor furniture. Aggressive when disturbed, especially near kids and pets.
We remove nests as part of regular service. Essential covers up to 15 feet, Premium and Elite up to 30 feet for higher locations.
Lakefront properties often have moisture issues from humidity. Ants follow water straight into homes. Argentine ants, rover ants, carpenter ants find any entry point.
We find and treat the colony at its source – not just kill the ones trailing across your counter.
Large black ants tunneling through wood. Common around lake properties with moisture problems, damaged wood, or humidity issues from being near the water.
Carpenter ant treatment included in Elite Plan. Additional service for Essential or Premium customers who need it.
Raccoons, squirrels, possums – they find gaps in structures and move right in. Tear up insulation, chew wires, leave contamination and damage.
We trap, remove, and seal entry points so they can’t return. Some properties need clean-up and sanitation after wildlife removal.
We’ve been serving properties around Lake Conroe and Montgomery County since 2006. We understand lakefront properties and the unique pest challenges they face.
