TERMITES
Termites. It’s incredible to witness the damage such a small creature can inflict. With an amenable climate for these pests, Texas is highly prone to termites and the infestations that can come with them. They can eat your home from the inside out, causing problems that can start as cosmetic and wind up as structural. Three species inhabit Texas, winged termites, subterranean termites, and dry termites being the most prolific. The best way to know if your home is safe is to get a professional inspection. We recommend having your home inspected by a professional once a year. We also offer pre-construction treatments that help ward off termites from day one. 855Bugs has been helping people in the Waco and Temple area manage termites for over 10 years! Schedule a FREE Inspection, we’d be happy to help ensure termites never threaten your home or livelihood.
BED BUGS
Bed bugs are often the most dreaded bug infestation in the eyes of the general public. If you’re terrified of bed bugs entering your home, you’re not alone! Let’s take a look at bed bugs: their appearance, their behaviors, myths, prevention, and, the topic everyone wants to know about, bed bug treatment.
RODENTS
Mice, rats, and other rodents are extremely resourceful and persistent creatures. Did you know a mouse can squeeze through an opening as small as ½ inch? And, don’t think you’re safe because that hole is only ¼ inch. They can easily chew through many surfaces to make that hole large enough to sneak through. Rats are excellent swimmers. While it certainly doesn’t happen often, rats can swim through sewer lines and wind up in your toilet bowl.

WILDLIFE CONTROL IN WACO, TEMPLE, BELTON, AND SURROUNDING AREAS
Your Leading Expert in Wildlife Pest Control and Removal
Racoons, skunks, armadillos, foxes, squirrels, moles, opossums, oh my! If you live in Texas, you are certainly aware of all the wildlife The Lone Star State has to offer. Don’t let their size fool you; even a small number of these pests can easily wreak havoc on your home and property.
Plenty of these critters love to hide in the walls or attic of your home and sometimes even creep into your living spaces! If you’re dealing with a wildlife pest problem in Waco or the surrounding areas, count on 855 Bugs to take care of it. We handle pest exclusion, trapping, and more.
Professional Wildlife Removal in Waco
When fall rolls around and the temperatures start to cool, we see an increase in animal removal calls. In colder months, these critters want warmth, food, and hydration, much like us. So when the weather cools down, they begin looking for warm places to stay, as well as food and water sources. Winter isn’t the only time to be on the lookout, though; if these critters can gain access to your home, they will do so any time of year.
They’ll do more than just live in your home. Rodents can cause a lot of damage and even increase fire risks when they chew through your drywall or wiring. Armadillos can burrow under in your yard and make it unstable. Moles and gophers love to dig; you can say goodbye to that coveted “yard of the month” title. Once these pests gain entry to your home or business, they make it easier for other rodents and pests to join them.
Common Pests in Waco
Homes and businesses in and around Waco see a variety of wildlife pests that pose real health and safety risks. Below we’ll list a few of them; if you’re dealing with any of them, give us a call as soon as possible!
- Gophers, moles, and armadillos will burrow under your yard, potentially causing property damage. Plus, they make your yard look worse. The 855 Bugs team can help by trapping and removing these pests, then sealing up the holes they dug.
- Raccoons, skunks, and possums love to forage through your garbage when they come out at night. Keep a tight lid on your outdoor trash bins and don’t leave pet food outside, and these guys might decide to leave on their own. If they don’t, though, call us for wildlife removal. They can carry diseases and should not be approached.
- Squirrels love to get their food from bird feeders and gardens. Keeping up with yard maintenance is a good way to minimize their food sources, but sometimes they just won’t leave you alone. We provide rodent control services to deal with these and any other rodents.
- Bats carry a variety of diseases that they can pass on to people and pets. If you notice a bat population around your home or business, don’t try dealing with it yourself; call our animal removal specialists to trap and relocate them.
Specialized Pest Prevention and Control
When dealing with a pest problem, regardless of the type or number of pests present, it’s important to act fast. At the first sign of wildlife taking up residence in or around your property, enlist the help of wildlife control experts ASAP! With a little information about your property and the type of pest you’re dealing with, the 855 Bugs team can start building a plan to help you right away.
Wildlife control is not a DIY project. Attempting to trap or capture any of these critters yourself introduces new dangers like bites from rabies-infected raccoons and skunks. Leave wild animal removal to the professionals! We handle both residential and commercial pest control, so you’re covered no matter what.
