Why McKinney deals with pests
Updated June 2026
McKinney pairs historic-district homes with sprawling new subdivisions, so termites and rodents in older houses and fire ants in fresh-graded yards are both common calls.
Historic Downtown McKinney's restored homes, many over a century old, sit on Blackland Prairie clay that has had generations to shift and crack, opening foundation gaps that subterranean termites and rodents have long since found.
Southwest McKinney's newer communities like Stonebridge Ranch were built on the same deep clay, just more recently graded, so fire ants and termites press on new construction here almost as hard as on the historic side of town.
McKinney's rapid outward growth keeps disturbing former farmland at the city's edges, a pattern that consistently pushes fire ant colonies and rodents toward fresh slabs before landscaping has even matured.
Local conditions: McKinney splits cleanly along its ZIP codes: Historic Downtown McKinney in 75069 sits on decades-settled Blackland Prairie clay under century-old homes, while the Stonebridge Ranch and southwest McKinney communities in 75072 are newer builds on the same shrink-swell clay, just without the decades of settling yet. Either way, the deep, dark soil is what keeps termites and fire ants a year-round concern.

Late winter
Feb to Mar
Termite swarmers begin on warm, damp days in the settled clay under McKinney's older homes, and rodents that wintered indoors stay active. A good window for an inspection before spring.
Spring
Apr to May
Fire ant mounds resurface across both historic yards and freshly graded new-construction lots. Early treatment keeps both from establishing before summer.
Summer
Jun to Aug
Peak season. Clay soil holds water across McKinney's neighborhoods old and new, and fire ants are at their worst in the heat. Recurring exterior treatment matters most now.
Fall
Sep to Nov
As nights cool, rodents move toward attics and garages, historic homes especially. Exclusion and sealing entry points before winter pays off.
Winter
Dec to Jan
Outdoor activity slows, but rodents and roaches indoors stay active. A quieter season for interior treatment.

Frequently asked questions
They tend to see it sooner, since a century of ground settling in the Blackland clay has already opened foundation gaps. But newer communities like Stonebridge Ranch sit on the exact same shrink-swell soil, just more recently graded, so termite and fire ant pressure isn't far behind. An annual inspection matters on either side of town, and ours are free.
McKinney's outward growth keeps disturbing former farmland at the city's edges, and grading exposes and redistributes existing colonies before landscaping has even matured. A yard-wide broadcast bait plus a perimeter treatment gets ahead of it.
