End of Bug Season?
Have you moved to Austin recently or know someone who has? The odds are likely that one of those two is the case!
With the number of people moving to Austin, it can help to know when it is “bug season.”
Unlike northern areas, Austin can have warmer temperatures nearly all year. However, that doesn’t make this a tropical environment where creepy crawlies are seen each month. Some years are certainly warmer than others. This year in fact proved that bug activity can continue well into October and even November!
Normally our busy season wraps up in September but that was the hottest month of the year this year! That led to plenty of roach complaints well into October.
But even with that warmer month, there isn’t a need to spray for bugs all year long. Some companies push quarterly, bi-monthly or even monthly contracts. There’s no need!
We have no contracts and we don’t try to lock you in to anything – ever!
Instead our customers call us when they see pests, and for roaches and most bugs this usually is just once per year! We have customers who call us even less frequently.
So “bug season” is typically around April to September most years. There may be some activity in March or as late as October, but worrying about, and certainly treating for, insects all year is unnecessary. And a waste of money!

We specialize in long-lasting treatments using products in a way that effectively kills bugs but has no impact on people. No contracts are needed. We treat more than once a year about as often as we skip years between treatments.
Aztec’s philosophy is to provide the most effective pest control service available, having the least negative impact on people and the environment here in Austin, Texas. We use a combination of the least toxic and most effective pest control products available.
We originally offered pest control using only natural, “organic” pest control products. While we still offer that service, we now combine those products with a low-toxicity, odorless, synthetic pyrethrin (crushed chrysanthemum flower), offering a longer-lasting residual effect.
