EcoArmor Pest Defense treats homes in The Colony, Texas, along the eastern shore of Lewisville Lake in Denton County, from our office at 279 Highview Ln in Anna. The Colony packs a lot of variety into a small footprint — original 1970s and 80s housing, dense newer development, and several miles of lake frontage. Family-owned, veteran-owned, licensed by the Texas Department of Agriculture, and running our own technicians rather than subcontracting to a regional partner.
What Makes Pest Pressure in The Colony Different
Lewisville Lake on the western edge
A large reservoir immediately west means a mosquito source that is not going anywhere, plus shoreline parks and vegetated margins that hold pressure through the season. Evening wind carries the population inland. We reduce what breeds on your own property and treat the shaded resting harborage, which is the part that determines whether you can use the yard.
Original housing now forty-plus years old
Much of The Colony was built in the 1970s and 80s, and that housing is now well into the age where slabs have moved, seals have aged and plumbing penetrations have opened up. Entry points that did not exist for the first two decades are ordinary now. The work here is inspection and sealing far more than volume of product.
High housing density and rental turnover
This is a dense city with a substantial rental and multifamily component, and turnover moves pests between units in a way that owner-occupied neighborhoods do not experience. Roaches in particular travel with belongings and through shared walls and utility runs. Treating a unit without accounting for the ones attached to it tends to produce short-lived results.
Mature landscaping against aging slabs
Forty years of landscaping means established trees, beds that have been mulched many times, and irrigation that has been running for decades. That holds moisture right against foundations that have already developed small gaps. The combination is the single most common driver of ant and roach calls we take here.

Why The Colony Homeowners Choose EcoArmor
- We treat the whole property. If there is a barn, a shop or a detached garage, that is part of the job rather than an upsell — on acreage the outbuilding is usually where the problem starts.
- Owner-run. Three brothers run EcoArmor. The person who answers the phone can make a decision about your account.
- We ask what kind of house you have. An original 1980s slab and a recent build in a newer section need different work, and The Colony has both.
The Colony Pest Control Questions
Can you do anything about mosquitoes this close to the lake?
We can make your yard usable and we will not pretend to do more. The lake keeps producing regardless. What we treat is what breeds on your property and the shaded areas where mosquitoes rest during the day, and that is what actually changes the experience.
We are in an apartment or townhome. Can you help?
Yes, though for shared-wall housing the result depends on whether neighboring units are also treated. We will tell you honestly what a single-unit treatment can and cannot achieve rather than selling you a plan that cannot succeed on its own.
Our house is from the 1980s. Does age matter?
It matters a lot. Four decades of soil movement opens gaps at expansion joints, plumbing penetrations and thresholds. Those are the entry points, and finding them is worth more than any amount of additional spraying.
