Scorpion control in Edinburg: where they hide

Why am I finding scorpions in my Edinburg home? The scorpion you found in an Edinburg home is almost certainly a striped bark scorpion (Centruroides vittatus), the most common scorpion in Texas. Texas A&M AgriLife says it does not burrow, it climbs trees and walls, and it is often found in attics—then moves into living […]

I used CPL last year for a termite problem. They did a great job protecting my house and keeping me informed! This year, I saw some termites in my yard. Chris inspected and assessed that they were not getting into the house. He sprayed that area to get rid of them and then sprayed my trees again just as a precaution. All this and he did not charge me for the visit!! Talk about excellent service! I highly recommend CPL and will continue to use them for my pest control needs.

Chris was extremely professional and communicative with his service. He helped me treat some dry wood termites. He was thorough in his inspection and explanation of the situation. Highly recommend.

I had a severe case of mole issue in my front yard. Digging everywhere and destroying my lawn . Christopher came and treated the yard with carbon monoxide. The first try didn’t work but he came back 2 times after that with no charge. Now it has been about a month after the last treatment and I see no sign of the mole. Great company . Christopher is awesome. Do not hesitate to call him for any issues you might have. Trust me. Mars

Chris at CPL was professional and knowledgeable and thorough in his pest inspection. Though he certainly has services he could have sold me, apparently my own initial attempt got lucky and appeared to have cleared out my problem, and he was honest about this evaluation. That type of honesty is just the thing that would have me coming back to CPL in the future, should the need arise. Thanks!

Thank you, Christopher, for the exceptional service! We had early signs of a termite infestation and Chris came out and treated the affected areas in one day and they are completely gone. Today I had him come out again for an ant problem outside. Will be a life-long customer. Thank you. :)
