Signs of an infestation

Why this matters in Austin

Large Texas redheaded centipedes can deliver a painful bite, but most occasional invaders are harmless. The real problem is volume — when conditions are right, dozens or hundreds can show up in a single night. Mulch beds touching the foundation, leaky outdoor faucets, and clogged gutters all make it worse.

Our treatment approach

We apply a granular perimeter treatment to lawns and mulch beds, treat exterior cracks and weep holes with a residual product, and recommend landscape adjustments — pulling mulch back from foundations, fixing drainage, sealing thresholds. Quarterly perimeter service prevents seasonal invasions.
