What we treat

If it crawls, flies, or chews on your house, we handle it.

A handful of things make up most of our work around Hawkins: general household pests, termites, roaches, mice, and wasps. If you've got something that isn't on this list, call anyway — twenty-some-odd years of it means we've probably seen yours, and we'll tell you straight if it's not something we handle.

Not sure what it is? Ask us

Termites

Subterranean termites love East Texas pine. We bait them in the ground and stop them before the framing starts to give.

Roaches & indoor pests

Kitchens, garages, and washrooms. We treat the problem and tell you where it's coming from, so it doesn't come back.

Mice

Mice in the pantry, droppings in the garage. We bait the runs they're using and show you the entry points we found.

Wasps & hornets

Eaves, barns, kids' playsets. We treat the nest and come back for the stragglers, so nobody gets stung.

General pest

House ants, spiders, silverfish, and whatever else turns up. If it's not termites, mice, or a nest, it usually lands here.

Who you’re actually calling

Austin Tanner still answers the phone himself.

Hey there! My name is Austin Tanner, and I am the proud owner of Vic’s Termite & Pest Control. I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and let you know a little about the person behind the business.

I was born and raised right here in Quitman, TX. God has blessed me with an amazing wife, Mattie, and a wonderful business family that I am incredibly thankful for.

I believe a good business is built on three things: honesty, communication, and integrity. I take a lot of pride in what I do and in the customer base I am working hard to build. My goal is to run this business the way a small-town business should be run. That means when someone tells you they’ll be at your home, you can count on them to show up.

We treat every house like it belongs to family, because around here half of them do. No pressure, no fine print you can’t read, no upsell on something your place doesn’t need. Just honest work at a fair price, from folks you’ll run into at the grocery store.

“I’d rather tell you the truth about what your house needs than sell you something it doesn’t.”
— Austin Tanner, owner

30Day guarantee

If they come back, we come back.

Every treatment carries a 30-day guarantee. If the same pest turns up within 30 days of your service, call us and we’ll come back out and re-treat at no charge — no arguing, no second invoice.

Why folks around here call us

Twenty years of showing up when we said we would.

Pest control is a trust business in a small town. You're letting somebody under your house and into your kitchen. We don't take that lightly.

You're usually seen within a week

Termites and wasp nests jump to the front of the line. Everything else gets scheduled fast, with a call if anything changes.

Safe around kids and pets

We follow the label to the letter and tell you plainly when everybody can come back outside or back in the kitchen.

Local, not a franchise

The truck says “Got Bugs” and the fella driving it lives around here. If something's not right, you know exactly who to call.

Licensed, insured, and straight with you

Licensed and insured in the state of Texas, TPCL #10824. If your place doesn't need a treatment, we'll tell you so and go home.

Based in Hawkins, serving all around East Texas.

We're based in Hawkins, and we'll drive a good ways to help a neighbor. If your town isn't on this list but it's close, give us a holler — chances are we already know the roads.

Called on a Tuesday about roaches in the kitchen and Austin was out Thursday morning. He treated the whole house, walked me through exactly what he was using, and we haven't seen one since.

Termites had gotten into the carport posts and I figured the whole thing was coming down. Austin found the trail, treated it, and came back out to check. That was three years ago and the posts are still solid.

We've used Vic's for four years now on the house and the shop. Somebody always answers the phone, they show up when they say they will, and the price is the price. I don't shop around anymore.
