Our Pest Control Services in Lackland AFB
Lackland AFB, TX sits in southwest San Antonio inside Bexar County, part of Joint Base San Antonio. The base and surrounding communities deal with year-round pest pressure from Central Texas heat and humidity. Long summers push ants, roaches, and scorpions into homes looking for water, and mild winters mean insect populations never fully die off. Older base housing, dense landscaping, and constant turnover from military families create conditions that keep pests active all year. Stride Pest Control provides pest control services to Lackland AFB residents covering ants, roaches, spiders, scorpions, rodents, mosquitoes, bed bugs, termites, fleas, ticks, and chiggers.
Stride is a family-owned pest control company and active member of the National Pest Management Association. Our San Antonio location operates under TDA license TPCL #827449, which you can verify with the Texas Department of Agriculture. We carry an A+ rating from the BBB with zero complaints. Every pest management plan follows integrated pest management principles from the EPA, and our QualityPro certification means every service member passes background checks and drug screenings before they knock on your door. If you need a Lackland AFB exterminator you can trust, contact Stride Pest Control or call (210) 547-8410.

Lackland AFB Ant Control
Fire ants are the biggest ant problem around Lackland AFB. They build mounds in yards, along sidewalks, and next to foundations – and they sting. If you’ve stepped on a mound in your yard barefoot, you already know how fast they swarm. Carpenter ants are the other species we treat regularly in this area. They don’t eat wood like termites, but they hollow it out to nest inside. Over time that causes real structural damage.
Our ant control starts with identifying the species and locating the colony. We use the Texas A&M AgriLife two-step fire ant control method for fire ant infestations – a broadcast bait combined with direct mound treatment. For carpenter ants, we trace foraging trails back to the nest and apply targeted products. Every treatment is covered under your service agreement, not contract, so if ants come back between scheduled visits, we come back at no charge.
Lackland AFB Cockroach Control
Roaches are one of the most common calls we get from Lackland AFB and the surrounding neighborhoods. German cockroaches live indoors – kitchens, bathrooms, anywhere there’s moisture and food. American cockroaches (the big ones people call waterbugs) come in from outside through gaps around doors, pipes, and utility lines. Both species reproduce fast, and both carry harmful bacteria that can trigger allergies and asthma, especially in kids.
Our cockroach extermination targets where roaches hide during the day. We apply gel baits in cracks and crevices, treat entry points, and dust wall voids where roaches nest. We also identify what’s attracting them – leaky pipes, food residue, gaps under doors – and make recommendations to cut off the things they need to survive. Products are odorless, colorless, and pet-safe. If you’re seeing roaches regularly, call us for a free inspection. We offer same-day bug control when you call before 3:00 PM.
Lackland AFB Rodent Control
Mice and roof rats are the two rodent species we deal with most around Lackland AFB. A mouse can squeeze through a gap the size of a dime. Roof rats climb trees, utility lines, and fences to reach your attic. Once inside, rodents chew through wiring, contaminate stored food, and leave droppings everywhere they travel. A single pair of mice can produce dozens of offspring in a year, so small problems turn into big ones fast.
Our rodent control uses a two-part approach: interior trapping and exterior exclusion. We set traps where rodent activity is confirmed – along walls, in attics, near droppings. Then we seal the entry points. That means closing gaps around pipes, utility lines, roof vents, and foundation cracks. Exclusion is what keeps the problem from coming back after the traps do their job. Every rodent treatment starts with a thorough inspection so we know exactly what we’re dealing with before we place a single trap.
Lackland AFB Mosquito Control
San Antonio’s warm, humid climate makes mosquito season stretch from early spring through late fall. Around Lackland AFB, standing water in gutters, plant saucers, and low spots in the yard gives mosquitoes exactly what they need to breed. Mosquitoes aren’t just a nuisance – they carry diseases including West Nile virus and Zika. The CDC’s mosquito-borne disease prevention guidance recommends reducing standing water and using professional pest treatment to lower mosquito populations around your home.
Stride’s mosquito control uses a two-prong approach. Our service members treat adult mosquitoes where they rest during the day – in shrubs, under eaves, along fence lines. We also target larvae in standing water sources before they hatch. Regular treatments throughout the season keep populations low so you can actually use your yard. All products are pet-safe, and we guarantee our work between visits. If mosquitoes are keeping you inside, call (210) 547-8410 for a free inspection.
Lackland AFB Bed Bug Control
Military families move frequently, and bed bugs travel with people. They hitchhike in luggage, furniture, and clothing. Around Lackland AFB, where personnel rotate in and out regularly, bed bug introductions happen more often than most people expect. Signs include small rust-colored spots on sheets, itchy bites that appear in lines or clusters, and tiny bugs hiding in mattress seams. The CDC recommends professional treatment because bed bugs are resistant to most over-the-counter products.
Our bed bug extermination uses targeted chemical applications to the areas where bed bugs hide – mattress seams, headboard joints, baseboards, and furniture crevices. We follow up with a second inspection at 10 to 14 days to confirm the treatment worked and catch any newly hatched bugs. If activity persists, we provide a re-service at no additional charge. Bed bug control requires precision, and our licensed, certified applicators know exactly where to look and how to treat effectively.
Lackland AFB Termite Control
Subterranean termites are the primary termite species in the Lackland AFB area. They live in soil and build mud tubes to reach the wood in your home’s structure. According to Texas A&M AgriLife Extension’s subterranean termite guide, these termites cause more structural damage in Texas than any other wood-destroying insect. The warm soil temperatures in Bexar County keep colonies active nearly year-round.
Stride Pest Control holds a Termite category on our TDA license (TPCL #827449), and our certified applicator Alexander Randall is licensed in both pest and termite categories. We provide subterranean termite treatment, termite inspections, and Wood Destroying Insect Reports (WDIR) for real estate transactions. Our termite control uses professionally applied bait stations and liquid treatments depending on the situation. If you’re buying or selling a home near Lackland AFB, call us for a termite inspection – it’s free, and we can issue a WDIR the same day.
Lackland AFB Spider Control
Brown recluse and black widow spiders are the two medically significant species found around Lackland AFB. Both prefer dark, undisturbed spaces – closets, garages, storage boxes, and woodpiles. Most spider problems inside a home point to a larger insect control issue. Spiders go where the food is. If you’re seeing lots of spiders indoors, there’s usually an underlying prey population driving them in.
Our spider extermination treats the spiders and their food source at the same time. We apply residual products along baseboards, in garages, and around entry points. We also knock down webs and egg sacs in eaves and corners. Reducing the insects that spiders feed on is the most effective long-term spider control strategy.
Lackland AFB Scorpion Control
Striped bark scorpions are the most common scorpion species in the San Antonio area. They’re small, tan-colored, and they sting. People find them in shoes, bedding, bathrooms, and closets – usually at night. Scorpions squeeze through surprisingly tight gaps to get indoors, and they follow the same logic as spiders: they go where the prey insects are.
Our scorpion control focuses on sealing entry points and reducing the insect population that draws scorpions inside. We treat cracks along the foundation, gaps under doors, and areas around utility penetrations. Regular residential pest control service keeps insect populations low, which removes the food source that attracts scorpions to your home in the first place.
Lackland AFB Flea, Tick, and Chigger Control
Fleas, ticks, and chiggers are common in the Lackland AFB area, especially in yards with pets or heavy ground cover. Fleas infest carpets and pet bedding fast. Ticks carry diseases including Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Chiggers hide in tall grass and shaded soil, leaving intensely itchy bites on ankles and legs.
Our flea, tick, and chigger control treats both indoor and outdoor areas. Inside, we target carpets, pet resting areas, and upholstered furniture. Outside, we treat shaded areas, fence lines, and spots where pets spend time. We recommend coordinating with your veterinarian on pet flea prevention alongside our treatment. Visit the Stride Pest Control homepage or call (210) 547-8410 to schedule.
Our Specialized Pest Control Services
For pests that require targeted treatment methods, we offer dedicated service programs. Every service starts with a free inspection.
Termites
Central Texas is home to multiple subterranean termite species that stay active year-round in our warm, humid climate. We provide termite treatment, ongoing monitoring, and Wood Destroying Insect Reports (WDIR) for real estate transactions.
Rodents
Mice and roof rats are a year-round problem in Austin, TX, with call volume increasing in the fall and winter as rodents seek shelter indoors. We use interior trapping and exterior exclusion to seal entry points and remove existing populations. Every rodent service starts with a free inspection.
Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are hitchhikers that can show up in any Central Texas home regardless of cleanliness, often arriving on luggage, furniture, or clothing. We use targeted chemical applications with a follow-up inspection at 10-14 days to confirm elimination.
Mosquitoes
Central Texas heat and humidity create ideal breeding conditions for mosquitoes from early spring through late fall. Our two-prong approach targets both adult mosquitoes and larvae to reduce populations around your property.
Cockroaches
Roaches thrive in the warm, humid conditions across Central Texas and can carry bacteria, contaminate food, and trigger allergies and asthma. We identify the species to determine the right treatment approach - German roaches require specific prep steps and targeted application.
Ants
Central Texas is home to multiple ant species that invade homes looking for food and water, including fire ants, carpenter ants, and acrobat ants. We identify the species first because different ants require different treatment methods. Every service starts with a free inspection and includes pet/family-friendly products.
Spiders
Central Texas homes commonly see brown recluse and black widow spiders along with wolf spiders, jumping spiders, and orb weavers. We treat the interior and exterior of your home, focusing on the entry points and areas where spiders nest. Every service starts with a free inspection by a TDA-licensed technician.
Scorpions
Scorpions are common across Central Texas, especially in newer developments built on previously undeveloped land where scorpion populations are already established. We treat around the foundation, entry points, and harborage zones where scorpions hide during the day. .

San Antonio Service Area
Stride's San Antonio office at 3501 Pin Oak Dr sits just off I-10 near the Medical Center, which puts most of the metro within a 30-minute drive. The team runs routes Monday through Saturday across Bexar County and into Comal, Guadalupe, and Kendall counties, covering residential neighborhoods, commercial properties, and multi-family housing.
Route scheduling is built around geography, so your technician knows the roads and the pest pressures specific to your part of the metro rather than driving in cold from across town. That local familiarity also means they know which species are most active in each area and what construction types to watch for during inspections.
