Ant Control built for Terrell Hills homes
Terrell Hills is a small, tree-shaded city of older estate homes just northeast of downtown San Antonio, and those mature lots on heavy Bexar County clay keep American cockroaches, fire ants, and subterranean termites pressing on the slabs most of the year.
Sitting around 800 feet on the Blackland Prairie clay between Alamo Heights and Fort Sam Houston, the town's 1930s-to-1960s homes were built on soil that swells and cracks with the weather, so termites and ants track foundation lines while the Salado Creek corridor east of town feeds mosquito pressure.
A few ants usually means a colony nearby. Bob Jenkins Pest & Lawn Services treats carpenter ants, fire ants, and household ants, finding the nest and setting a barrier so they don't march right back in.
Whether you're in Terrell Hills proper or just outside it in Bexar County, our technicians know the pests this part of South Texas throws at a home and treat for the long haul, not just the bugs you see today. We treat your premises with respect and answer any questions about the pest problems you have or had.

Terrell Hills pest calendar: what to watch month by month
Pest pressure in Terrell Hills shifts with the seasons. Here's how the year typically runs on South Texas ground so you can stay ahead of it.
Mar-May
Subterranean termite swarms & fire ants
Warm spring rains trigger termite swarms off the soil and push fire-ant mounds up across heavy clay yards. This is the window to set perimeter and bait.
Jun-Aug
Mosquitoes, roaches & scorpions
Long, humid summers keep American roaches and mosquitoes pressing on homes; clay that holds water after every storm feeds the next mosquito brood.
Sep-Nov
Rodents & overwintering pests
As nights cool, rats and mice look for a way indoors; a fall exterior barrier and sealed entry points keep them out before winter.
Dec-Feb
Indoor invaders & inspections
Mild South Texas winters never fully clear pests. Roaches and rodents move inside, and the quiet season is ideal for a termite inspection.
