Frequently Asked Questions

Herbicide, Pesticide, Insecticide & Fungicide Aerial Spraying by Drone

What areas do you serve?

We are based out of Gonzales County, Texas and can provide aerial spraying services across Central, South, and East Texas, including Gonzales, Bastrop, La Grange, Hallettsville, Cuero, Kenedy, Floresville, Seguin, Lockhart, Luling, and surrounding rural counties.  We are fully licensed and insured in the State of Texas. 

What can you spray with your drones?

Our drones are equipped for herbicide, pesticide,  and insecticide applications. We treat a wide variety of issues for our customers including but not limited to mesquite, prickly pear, huisache, broadleaf weeds, armyworms, and many more problem species.   We can spray around solar farms, ranches, tall woodland, fence rows and private roads.

Do you offer fertilizer application?

No, at this time we do not offer fertilizer spraying. We specialize in targeted chemical applications-herbicides for brush and weed control, insecticides for pest management.

Is drone spraying as effective as traditional aerial application?

Yes-and in many cases, it's more precise. We do our own regular swath tests and calibration on our equipment to make sure our applications are done right.  Drones can spray with lower drift, better coverage in tight or uneven terrain, and reduced chemical waste. That means fewer passes, fewer surprises, and more control over your results.

Can you spray mesquite or prickly pear with drones?

Absolutely. This is our most popular request with our services. We specialize in mesquite control and prickly pear herbicide application using trusted products and exact mix rates for your land conditions. Our approach is ideal for brush management on Texas pastures and rangeland.

How much does it cost?

We offer custom per-acre pricing based on acreage, terrain, chemical selection, and application rate. Pricing is always transparent-we walk you through mix rates, chemical costs, and labor so you know exactly what you're paying for.

How many acres can you cover in a day?

Typically this is about the rate or the gallons per acre we need to apply.  At 2 gallons per acre we can handle about 40 acres in a hour conservatively. Most of our applications are a lot higher rate than this such as 4 - 6 gallons per acre so that coverage per hour would be adjusted.  The XAG P150 drone has about a 18.5 gallon tank and takes less than a minute to fill and swap batteries.

How do I schedule a job?

Just give us a call or submit a request through our Contact Page. We'll gather a few details about your property and goals, and then provide an estimate with a clear breakdown of services and timing.  You can reach us at 830-263-1139.  If we do not answer right away, we are probably out spraying but will get back to you ASAP.  You can also text us at this number.
