Travis Heights sits immediately south of Town Lake, east of Congress, with hilly terrain and an established mid-century home stock. The pest profile is termite-heavy due to the home age, mosquito-moderate due to lake proximity, and roof-rat-elevated due to mature trees.
Annual termite inspection + quarterly general pest + warm-season mosquito treatment. Tree-canopy access for roof rats is a recurring concern; trim before treat.
