Why Georgetown deals with pests

Updated June 2026

Georgetown's older oaks and the limestone hills around the San Gabriel River give scorpions, spiders, and rodents cover, and termites plenty to feed on in established homes.

Georgetown grew up around the confluence of the North and South San Gabriel rivers, and the limestone bluffs and rocky terrain along the water give scorpions and spiders plenty of natural crevices close to riverside homes.

The city's historic downtown square and its surrounding older neighborhoods carry decades-old oak canopy, and that shade holds ground moisture that subterranean termites and rodents rely on.

Newer master-planned communities on the west side, closer to Lake Georgetown, sit right against Edwards Plateau limestone and cedar brush, prime territory for scorpions moving toward foundations as the weather heats up.

Local conditions: Georgetown sits where the South and North San Gabriel rivers meet, right at the edge of the Edwards Plateau's limestone hill country. That rocky terrain along the river gives scorpions and spiders natural stone-crevice cover, while the shaded, mature-tree neighborhoods around the historic downtown square hold enough moisture to draw termites.

When pests press hardest in Georgetown

How pest pressure shifts through the year around Georgetown and Austin, and what's worth doing in each stretch.

Late winter

Feb to Mar

Termite swarmers begin on warm days near the river, and scorpions start stirring in the rocky terrain as it warms. A window for a termite inspection before spring.

Spring

Apr to May

Fire ant mounds reappear in yards and spiders become more active along the limestone bluffs and rock landscaping. Early treatment keeps both from building up.

Summer

Jun to Aug

Peak season. Scorpions seek cool, shaded harborage near foundations as the heat climbs, and termites stay active in the shaded, older neighborhoods near downtown. Recurring exterior treatment matters most now.

Fall

Sep to Nov

As nights cool, rodents move from riverside brush and tree canopy toward attics and garages. Exclusion before winter is the priority.

Winter

Dec to Jan

Outdoor activity slows, but rodents and roaches indoors stay active. A good season for interior treatment and sealing.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions

Georgetown grew up around the confluence of the North and South San Gabriel rivers, and the limestone bluffs and rocky terrain along the water give scorpions and spiders plenty of natural stone crevices to hide in. Homes closer to the river or built with rock landscaping tend to see more activity, so we focus treatment on those harborage points.

They can be. The older, oak-shaded streets around the historic square have decades of established tree canopy holding moisture in the ground, which is exactly what subterranean termites look for near a foundation. An annual inspection is the cheapest insurance, and ours are free.

Yes. Communities like Sun City Texas and Wolf Ranch sit closer to the Edwards Plateau's limestone and cedar brush, which brings a different pest mix, more scorpions and less shaded-canopy pressure, so we adjust the plan to that terrain.

Yes. Once the product dries it's virtually harmless. We just ask you keep pets off wet areas for about 15 to 20 minutes. We use products approved for use in daycares, hospitals, and restaurants, with an organic option available.
