Shoop's Texas Termite DIY Store Professional

General Information

Providing Quality Pest Control Services Since 1932 The company began as Texas Termite and was founded by F.E. "Forrest Edward" Shoop Sr. The small-town company was first established in the back of a humble house on Filmore Street in Wichita Falls, in the year of 1932. The business consisted of F.E. Shoop Sr, his son Forrest Jr, two cousins, and one technician. The fleet included Mr. Shoop's personal vehicle and just two others. The economy (needless to say) was very impoverished, due to the stock market crash in 1929, which set off the Great Depression throughout the 1930s. This did not deter Mr. Shoop. Many homeowners, in the 1930s, realized that they had an enemy that was destroying their most valuable asset, their home. The enemy's name was Subterranean termites. To make matters worse, almost every house was built on a pier and beam structure, which gave the termite's direct access to the structures of Wichita Falls. Mr. Shoop provided a solution for the residence of Wichita falls which began to grow into a legacy for generations to come. Currently, Shoop's is the leading termite and pest control company in Wichita Falls and the surrounding areas. Shoop's Texas Termite & Pest Control has been voted "The Best Pest Control Company" 25 years in a row by Times Record News. They have received an array of awards and certificates from non-profit and community organizations for the donation of services, funds, and outstanding company performance. The Shoop family is very dedicated to the community and growth of Wichita Falls. Shoop's constantly helps families and individuals in need through giveaways, donations, and their benevolence program Since 1932, Shoop's Texas Termite & Pest Control has been dedicated to providing you with the high-quality pest control, weed control, termite, bed bug, and mosquito services you deserve. Mr. Shoop was a man of morals and had a passion for his community. He decided to offer anyone who desired, a complete termite inspection absolutely free. We still offer this free service today! By doing this, he discovered that 90% of the structures he inspected had termites. Mr. Shoop was often confronted with a family that just could not afford the treatments. However, he never turned away a customer in need. He would trade services or goods, he allowed customers to pay at their own pace, and he provided many applications at no charge. Mr. Shoop created a business known for its family values and dedication to the community. The main source of advertisement was word of mouth. When a home or business needed pest control services, the name on everyone's lips was Mr. Shoop. In this way, he created a legacy for future generations to come. It wasn't long before his son, F.E. Shoop Jr. was the owner. Years later, F.E.'s son, David R. Shoop Sr. took control of the company. In the year 1978, David Shoop Sr. took control of the well-established company that was still known as Texas Termite. However, anytime someone referred to the business they would say "Mr. Shoop's Company or The Shoop's Termite Business," so it wasn't long before the name changed to Shoop's Texas Termite & Pest Control. The business, though well established, was still a humble company consisting of three trucks among the fleet. During the 1980s, as the population of Wichita Falls increased dramatically, so did the business and the services that it provided. Shoop's branched out into lawn care, tree spraying, and commercial pre-treatment services throughout North West Texas, all while keeping the high standards and customer-first values the business was known for in previous decades. David Sr.'s son, Dylan Shoop also played a significant role in the success and growth of the business. Dylan is a managing partner and director of all service technicians in the field. He is an expert in termite colony elimination and prevention with decades of experience. Dylan is dedicated to customer se...
