New Braunfels, TX sits in the Texas Hill Country, where pest control concerns are dominated by brown recluse spiders in older properties, fire ants on the limestone-rich soil, summer scorpion activity, and tick exposure from adjacent natural areas. Iron Gate Pest Control Texas brings experienced Texas applicators to New Braunfels and Comal County with a focus on older-home pest profiles — long-standing wood damage, established subterranean infestations, and the structural quirks that make pre-1990 homes harder to fully exclude.
