Seventeen Years of Keeping Central Texas Pest-Free
What started as one truck and a promise in 2009 is now the Austin metro's most-trusted local pest control team — still family-owned, still answering every call like it's the first.
Built on a Kitchen-Table Frustration
In 2009, Daniel Greene watched his parents get quoted three different prices by three different pest companies for the same ant problem — none of which fixed it. The industry had a trust problem, and he decided the fix was simple: identify correctly, treat precisely, guarantee the result, and never charge for a promise you didn't keep.
That principle became GreenShield. Seventeen years later, the company has grown from one truck to a metro-wide team — but every technician still carries the same three rules: diagnose before you treat, explain before you charge, and return free if it comes back.
Today GreenShield protects more than 48,000 Central Texas properties, from family bungalows to hospital campuses, with the highest-rated local team in the metro. We're proud of the numbers. We're prouder that most of our new customers still come from a neighbor's recommendation.
Our Mission
To protect the health, homes, and businesses of Central Texas with honest, science-driven pest control — delivered by neighbors, guaranteed without fine print, and priced without games.
Our Vision
A Central Texas where nobody loses sleep, health, or property value to pests — and where “call the pest company” is a decision people make with confidence instead of dread.
Values That Ride in Every Truck
Honesty Over Upsells
If you don't need a treatment, we say so. Our quotes list exactly what you're paying for, and our technicians aren't commissioned to inflate them.
Science-Driven Stewardship
Integrated Pest Management first: precise identification, targeted treatment, minimal footprint. Effective and responsible aren't opposites.
Neighbors Serving Neighbors
Our technicians service the communities they live in. When we guarantee your home, we're often guaranteeing our own street.
Always Learning
Pests evolve; so do we. Every technician trains beyond state requirements, with specialists certified in termite, wildlife, and bed bug work.
