Superior Mosquito & Pest Control has been serving Longview and the surrounding Gregg County area since 2007. Eighteen years of East Texas pest control means we know the pests that move through this region, the seasons that drive them indoors, and the neighborhoods where they show up most. Whether you own a home, rent a property, manage a commercial building, or run a business, we are ready to help. Pests gone. Home protected. Worry lifted.

Every home attracts its own mix of pests, and so does every commercial property. We handle the full range of common Texas pests: ants, cockroaches, spiders, rodents, wasps and hornets, fleas, ticks, silverfish, and the seasonal invaders that push inside when the weather shifts. That includes bed bugs, house centipedes, flies, and the occasional kissing bug or chigger problem that East Texas residents know too well.
Our standard approach combines exterior barrier treatment with targeted interior pest treatment, cutting off the entry points pests use and addressing any active pressure inside. We work from an integrated pest management framework, meaning we look at the full picture of why pests are present and address conditions that attract them, not just the ones we can see at the moment.
This applies whether we are treating a single-family home or a multi-unit commercial property. Leave the pests to us.
Getting your home pest-free is easier than you think. We work with homeowners, renters, and landlords across Longview and the wider Gregg County area. Our residential service covers whole-home pest control from the foundation up, including interior treatment, exterior perimeter treatment, and crawl space and attic zones where pests often go unnoticed.
If you are moving into a new home or taking over a rental property, a move-in pest control treatment is a smart first step before boxes are unpacked and furniture is in place. First-time service gets your home to a clean baseline. From there, a recurring prevention plan keeps it that way. Work is performed by licensed pest control technicians who know what to look for and how to treat it properly.
Scheduling pest control shouldn't be complicated, especially for a business that cannot afford disruption. We serve property managers, office tenants, retail spaces, and multi-unit buildings throughout Longview. Commercial pest control requires flexibility, and we schedule around your hours so treatments do not interfere with your operations or tenants.
Recurring maintenance plans keep pest pressure from building between visits. We document what we find and what we treat, so property managers and building owners always know the status of their account. Local means we care what the neighbors think of our work, and that applies just as much to the businesses we serve as to the homes.
Booking a pest control visit is simple, and so is choosing the right plan. If you have an active infestation that needs immediate attention, a one-time treatment addresses the problem directly. We identify the pest, treat the affected areas, and give you clear guidance on what to expect after the visit.
For long-term protection, recurring plans make more sense. We offer quarterly and bi-monthly prevention plans that keep common pests from gaining a foothold through the year. Year-round pest control is especially valuable in East Texas, where warm winters mean pest pressure does not fully stop between seasons. Tawny crazy ants, subterranean termites, cockroaches, and rodents are active year-round here, and a consistent schedule is the most reliable way to stay ahead of them.
Our recurring plans come with no long-term contracts. You stay on the plan because it works, not because you are locked in. Fast inspection. Honest pricing. Pests handled.
Getting your pest problem handled starts with a quick call. We know that some situations cannot wait for a scheduled appointment next week. A wasp nest near a doorway, a rodent in the walls, or a cockroach infestation in a rental unit all need a fast response. We offer same-day service and weekend availability for customers who need help quickly.
When you call, you reach a real local person who knows Gregg County and can get a technician to your property without delay. Scheduling is straightforward, and we work around your availability as much as possible. Call today and we'll set your appointment.
East Texas has its own pest pressures, shaped by the heat, humidity, and landscape that define this part of the state. Knowing which species are active locally, where they nest, and how they behave here is what separates effective treatment from guesswork. The three pests below get their own section because they come up regularly in Longview and the surrounding area, and because homeowners often underestimate what they are dealing with.
Red imported fire ants are a fixture in Longview yards, landscaping beds, and open lawn areas. Their mounds can appear quickly after rain, and a single yard may host multiple colonies connected underground. Over-the-counter mound treatments often scatter the colony without eliminating it, giving the impression of control while the infestation continues to spread. Professional treatment uses products that reach the queen and address the colony at its source. Outdoor perimeter treatment and targeted mound elimination, timed to fire ant activity cycles, produces results that store-bought products rarely match.
Brown recluse spiders are common in East Texas homes, and they are easy to underestimate because they stay out of sight. Storage areas, garages, attics, undisturbed closets, and spaces behind furniture are typical harborage zones. An infestation can grow for months before a homeowner realizes the scope of it. A professional inspection identifies where spiders are concentrated and where conditions are favorable for them. Treatment covers the interior zones where brown recluse activity is highest, including crawl space and attic areas, and is paired with guidance on reducing the clutter and harborage that allows populations to establish.
The striped bark scorpion is the species found in this part of Texas, and it turns up around homes more often than most Longview residents expect. Scorpions shelter under woodpiles, debris, loose bark, and in gaps around foundations and entry points. They are nocturnal and move inside through cracks and openings that are easy to overlook. Exterior barrier treatment reduces scorpion pressure around the perimeter of the home, and entry-point sealing addresses the gaps that allow them inside. Consistent perimeter treatment, especially heading into warmer months, is the most effective way to keep scorpion activity from becoming a problem indoors.
Pest control pricing depends on the size of the property, the type of pest involved, and how often you want service. A one-time treatment for a specific pest is priced differently from a recurring quarterly plan covering a full property. Before any work begins, we take a look at the situation and give you a clear estimate based on what we find.
There are no guesses and no surprises. We keep you informed from inspection to follow-up so you understand what is being treated, why, and what the schedule looks like going forward. If you are comparing plan options or trying to figure out what makes sense for your property, the easiest way to get accurate numbers is to call. We will walk you through the options and quote you based on your actual situation, not a generic rate card.
We have been doing this work in Longview since 2007, and the reason most new customers find us is the kind of pest control neighbors pass along by word of mouth. No one calls a pest control company to brag about it. They call to refer someone because the problem actually got solved.
We are locally owned and personally accountable for every job we take. When something needs a follow-up, we are here. When a customer has a question between visits, they reach someone who knows their property and their history with us. All work is performed by licensed pest control technicians who treat your home or business the way they would treat their own. Pick up the phone and we'll handle the problem.
When you call, we ask a few quick questions about what you are seeing, where you are seeing it, and how long the problem has been going on. That helps us match you with the right technician and make sure the visit is as efficient as possible. We confirm your appointment time and let you know what, if anything, to prepare before we arrive.
The easiest way is to call us at (430) 323-9289. We ask about your property, the pest you are dealing with, and the size of the space, and we give you a real number based on your situation. We do not quote from a generic rate card, and we do not start work until you have agreed to the price.
If our estimate was based on a phone description and the technician finds something significantly different on site, we will tell you before any work begins. We do not adjust pricing mid-job without your knowledge. Our goal is for you to feel confident in what you are paying for before a single product is applied.
Both factors affect the price. A larger home takes more time and more product to treat thoroughly, and a heavier infestation may require more targeted applications or a follow-up visit. We factor all of that in when we give you a quote so there are no surprises later.
For most homes in Gregg County, a quarterly or bi-monthly prevention plan is the right fit. East Texas has a warm, humid climate that keeps pest pressure active for most of the year, so consistent scheduled service is more effective than waiting for a problem to develop. We can help you decide which schedule makes sense based on your property and the pests you have dealt with before.
Droppings along baseboards, visible ant trails, nests near entry points, unexplained bites, or sounds in the walls at night are all signs that something is already established in your home. Cockroach sightings during the day are a strong indicator of a larger population hiding out of sight. If you are noticing any of these, calling sooner rather than later makes the treatment simpler and less expensive.
A cockroach in the kitchen during the day usually means there are many more hiding behind appliances, under cabinets, and inside wall voids. Avoid using over-the-counter sprays before we arrive, as these can scatter the population and make treatment less effective. Call us and we will get out to you quickly with a targeted treatment plan for the affected areas.
Pest pressure builds between visits when barrier treatments are not refreshed. Entry points that were sealed or treated lose their effectiveness over time, and pests that were kept out begin to find their way back in. Customers who skip scheduled visits often end up calling for a more intensive one-time treatment that costs more than the prevention plan would have.
Yes. We work with homeowners, renters, landlords, property managers, offices, restaurants, warehouses, and retail spaces throughout Longview and the surrounding area. The inspection and treatment approach is tailored to the property type, but the same technicians who handle residential accounts also handle commercial ones.
A standard residential treatment usually takes between 45 minutes and an hour and a half, depending on the size of the home and what needs to be addressed inside and out. A larger home or a more active infestation may take longer. Your technician will give you a realistic time estimate when they arrive.
Payment is due at the time of service. We will have walked you through the cost before any work begins, so there are no surprises at the end of the visit. We accept standard payment methods and can answer any billing questions when you call.

Not every pest problem calls for the same solution. We offer a range of treatment plans sized to fit the situation, whether you are dealing with an active infestation today or looking for consistent year-round protection. The table below lays out your options so you can see at a glance what fits your home, your schedule, and the pests you are up against in Gregg County.
| Plan | Ideal For | Treatment Frequency | Pests Covered | Helpful Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One-Time Treatment | Active infestation needing immediate attention | Single visit | Cockroaches, Wasps, Hornets, and Yellowjackets, Red Imported Fire Ants, Brown Recluse Spiders | Covers the targeted pest and affected areas. Includes guidance on what to expect after the visit and whether follow-up is advisable. |
| Monthly | Properties with heavy or persistent pest pressure | Every 4 weeks | Cockroaches, Ants, Tawny Crazy Ants, Flies, House Centipedes | Most intensive recurring schedule. A good fit for properties that have struggled to keep pest pressure under control with less frequent service. |
| Bi-Monthly | Homeowners who want consistent coverage without monthly visits | Every 2 months | Ants, Cockroaches, Spiders, Silverfish, Striped Bark Scorpions | Balances cost and coverage well for most East Texas homes. Barrier treatments are refreshed before they lose effectiveness. |
| Quarterly | Year-round prevention for most Longview homes | Every 3 months | Ants, Cockroaches, Spiders, Red Imported Fire Ants, Striped Bark Scorpions | Our most popular residential plan. Four scheduled visits per year keep exterior barriers active and interior pressure low through every season. |
| Seasonal (Spring & Fall) | Homeowners targeting peak activity periods | Twice per year | Wasps, Hornets, and Yellowjackets, Red Imported Fire Ants, Mosquitoes, Chiggers | Timed to the two periods when pest pressure spikes most sharply in East Texas. Works best as a supplement to an existing plan or for lower-pressure properties. |
| Rodent Control | Homes or businesses with mouse or rat activity | Initial visit plus follow-up as needed | Mice and Rats | Covers inspection, targeted treatment, and entry-point guidance. Follow-up visits are scheduled based on activity level found at the initial inspection. |
| Commercial / High-Traffic | Offices, retail spaces, property managers, and multi-unit buildings | Customized to property type and use | Cockroaches, Ants, Flies, Bed Bugs, Mice and Rats | Scheduled around your operating hours to avoid disruption. We document findings and treatments so property managers always have a clear record of service activity. |
How often should a home in Longview be treated for pests?
For most homes in Gregg County, a quarterly or bi-monthly plan is the right fit. East Texas has a warm, humid climate that keeps pest pressure active through most of the year, including mild winters when insects like cockroaches and tawny crazy ants stay active. Consistent scheduled service is more effective than waiting for a visible problem to develop.
What is the difference between a one-time treatment and a recurring prevention plan?
A one-time treatment addresses an active infestation directly. We identify the pest, treat the affected areas, and walk you through what to expect. A recurring plan is built around prevention: we refresh exterior barriers and treat interior pressure points on a schedule so pests do not get a foothold in the first place. Most homeowners find that a prevention plan costs less over time than repeated one-time treatments.
Are your treatments safe for children and pets?
We use products and application methods that are appropriate for homes with children and pets. Your technician will let you know if any area needs to be avoided while a product dries or settles, and will tell you when it is safe to return to treated spaces. If you have specific concerns about a product, ask when you call and we will walk you through it.
Recurring Plans With No Long-Term Contract
We offer quarterly and bi-monthly prevention plans that you can adjust or cancel at any time. You stay on the plan because it works, not because you signed a contract.
Do I need to leave my home during or after a treatment?
For most standard exterior barrier treatments, you do not need to leave at all. If interior treatment is involved, your technician will tell you which rooms or areas to stay out of and for how long. We keep that window as short as possible and will give you a clear time before we start.
What should I do to prepare before a technician arrives?
For interior treatment, it helps to clear under sinks, move items away from baseboards in affected rooms, and make sure pets are secured or moved to an untreated area. For exterior treatment, no special preparation is usually needed. When you schedule, we will let you know if anything specific applies to your situation.
What pests does a general recurring treatment cover?
Our recurring plans cover the common pests active in this area: ants, cockroaches, spiders, silverfish, house centipedes, wasps and hornets, and the regional pests that come up regularly here, including red imported fire ants, brown recluse spiders, and striped bark scorpions. Rodents, bed bugs, and mosquitoes are handled through targeted plans. If you are unsure whether a pest is covered, call and we will tell you directly.
Work Performed by Licensed Technicians
Every visit is handled by licensed pest control technicians who know the pests active in Gregg County and how to treat them effectively. We keep you informed from inspection to follow-up.
What are the warning signs of a cockroach problem?
Seeing a cockroach during the day is one of the clearest signs of a larger infestation. Cockroaches are nocturnal, so daytime sightings usually mean the population is large enough to push individuals out of hiding. Other signs include droppings along baseboards or inside cabinets, a musty odor in the kitchen or bathroom, and egg casings in dark corners behind appliances. Avoid using store-bought sprays before we arrive, as these can scatter the population and make treatment less effective.
What should I know about brown recluse spiders in East Texas homes?
Brown recluse spiders are common in this area and easy to underestimate because they stay out of sight. They favor undisturbed spaces: storage areas, garages, attics, closets, and spaces behind furniture. An infestation can grow for months before it becomes obvious. A professional inspection identifies where activity is concentrated and where conditions are favorable, and treatment covers the interior zones where brown recluse populations tend to establish, including crawl space and attic areas.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
Some pest problems cannot wait. We offer same-day service for customers who need a fast response, whether it is a wasp nest near an entry point, a rodent in the walls, or an active cockroach infestation in a rental unit.
What happens if pests return between scheduled visits?
If you see activity between your scheduled visits, call us. We will assess whether a re-treatment is warranted and get back out to your property. Pest pressure can spike after heavy rain, a change in season, or a shift in conditions around the home. We would rather address it quickly than let it build before your next scheduled visit.
Is there a long-term contract for recurring plans?
No. Our recurring plans come with no long-term contracts. You stay on the plan because it is working for you, not because you are locked in. If your situation changes, you can adjust or cancel without penalty.
How does the season affect pest pressure in Longview?
East Texas does not have the cold winters that shut pest activity down in other parts of the country. Cockroaches, tawny crazy ants, and subterranean termites are active year-round here. Spring and early summer bring fire ant mound activity, wasps and hornets building nests, and mosquito pressure. Fall often pushes rodents and spiders indoors as temperatures drop. A year-round prevention plan accounts for all of these shifts rather than treating each one as a separate emergency.
Call (430) 323-9289 and we will walk you through the plan options and give you a quote based on your actual property and situation.
