Providers plan their work county by county, and Hockley County — 908 square miles inside the Lubbock metro — is planned around the same weather and housing forces as the rest of the metro, felt at this county's own addresses.
Read Hockley County's pest list off its geography: big temperature swings, wind and seasonal extremes that drive pests to structures for shelter, and the result is a calendar dominated by house mice, wasps and yellowjackets and crickets and earwigs.
The county's vital statistics: 908 square miles (the 129th largest of 254 in Texas), centred at 33.61° N, 102.34° W, and one of the 6 counties composing the Lubbock metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under Texas rules.
There is a useful way to locate Hockley County in the metro's pest geography: about 27 miles west of Lubbock, holding roughly 17% of the metro counties' combined land area. A mid-sized county for this metro. The consequence shows up in the work itself — properties here draw their pest pressure from both directions, the metro's and the countryside's, and a provider who treats Hockley County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.
| Land area | 908 sq mi |
|---|---|
| Rank by area in state | 129th of 254 counties |
| Rank by area in metro | 1st of 6 counties |
| Share of metro land | 17% |
| County centre | 33.61° N, 102.34° W |
| Distance to Lubbock | about 27 miles (west) |
| Counties in metro | 6 |
These are Hockley County's own numbers, not the metro's: land, rank and position from Census data. Hockley County sits 1st of 6 in its metro by land area, roughly 27 miles west of Lubbock — the coordinates its pest calendar is read from.
Within the same metro, Crosby County (900 sq mi) lies about 60 miles to the east; Garza County (893 sq mi) lies about 67 miles to the southeast; Lubbock County (896 sq mi) lies about 30 miles to the east; Lynn County (892 sq mi) lies about 42 miles to the southeast; Cochran County (775 sq mi) lies about 28 miles to the west — every one of them profiled on its own page here — the metro is shared, but the reading is county by county.
The Midland, TX metro centre is about 109 miles to the south; the Odessa, TX metro centre is about 121 miles to the south; the Amarillo, TX metro centre is about 116 miles to the north. Those distances are the county's real geography, and pest work respects it: providers cross metro lines on their routes every week, and an address near Hockley County's edge can sit closer to a neighbouring metro's crews than to its own.
Coverage for Hockley County runs through these metro guides, every one of them written from local climate and housing data rather than a template.
