Donna was founded on La Blanca Agricultural Co. land in 1902, 23,000 acres fronting the Rio Grande, and farm fields and canals still ring the town. It also has some of the older housing in Hidalgo County: the median home was built around 1989, and about one in five went up before 1970 (U.S. Census ACS 2020-2024). Older homes, low spots that hold water and open land next door add up to more mosquitoes, ants and rodents. CPL Pest Control treats Donna homes, yards and businesses.

Free onsite inspection for Donna homes, rural lots and businesses.

Pest Control Services in Donna, TX

Donna sits among farm fields and canals, so a lot of our work here is on bigger lots: leafcutter and fire ants, rodents moving in from field edges, and mosquitoes where streets hold water. We also treat roaches, fleas, scorpions, wasps and termites, for homes and businesses, inside and out.

Homes in Donna

Donna’s housing is older than most of the Mid-Valley. The median home was built around 1989, and about one in five went up before 1970 (U.S. Census ACS 2020-2024). Older framing and settled foundations give termites and rodents more ways in, so we check for both.

Common Pests in Donna

Mosquitoes where streets flood

Some Donna neighborhoods, including the area near 11th Street and Scobey Avenue, have dealt with flooding for decades, and the city is adding drainage. The city has approved a drainage project there, but until water drains fast, every storm leaves puddles, ditches and containers where mosquitoes breed. Aedes aegypti, which can carry dengue, lays eggs in anything that holds water around the house.

Rats and mice in older homes

With about 20% of Donna’s homes built before 1970, there are plenty of worn door sweeps, gaps around pipes and openings at the roofline. Field edges and storage sheds draw rodents, and those gaps let them into attics and garages when the weather turns.

Termites in older wood

Older framing, wood trim and wet soil after a flood are what subterranean termites look for. Hidalgo County is on Texas A&M’s list of counties with Formosan termite records, and native termites are active here too, so a free inspection is worth it.

Leafcutter and fire ants

Texas leaf-cutting ants can strip fruit trees and shrubs, and fire ants take over lawns and pastures after rain. Larger lots need a yard-wide plan.

Scorpions and wasps

Striped bark scorpions shelter under boards and debris, and Mexican honey wasps build large nests in shrubs and trees across the Lower Valley.

Donna Pest Control FAQ

Do you provide pest control in Donna, TX?

Can leafcutter ants kill my fruit trees?

Texas leaf-cutting ants can strip leaves from fruit trees and shrubs, sometimes overnight. We find the colony and treat it, along with fire ants in the lawn.

Do older Donna homes get more termites?

Older wood framing and wet soil after floods are what subterranean termites look for, and Formosan termites are documented in Hidalgo County. A free inspection tells you what you have.

My Donna home flooded. Am I at higher termite risk?

Flooding leaves soil and wood damp, which is what subterranean termites look for, and about one in five Donna homes was built before 1970. Hidalgo County also has Formosan termite records. After a flood, a free inspection is a smart step, so call (956) 287-2118.

Why are mosquitoes so bad near 11th Street and Scobey Avenue?

That area has dealt with flooding for decades, and the city is adding drainage. Water that sits after a storm becomes mosquito breeding ground. The city has approved a drainage project there; in the meantime, we can treat your yard.
