Good to know in Houston

Houston is warm, wet and green for most of the year, so pests stay active in winter too. Heavy rain pushes roaches, ants and earwigs indoors, and clay soil holds moisture near foundations. Regular exterior service stops many problems before they start.

Pest control companies in Texas are licensed by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) Structural Pest Control Service, and technicians work under a certified applicator.

Most homes do well with service every one to three months. Quarterly is common. Homes near greenbelts or bayous may need service more often.

Is it safe for kids and pets?

Products are used by label. We tell you when it is safe to re-enter treated areas and give you a Consumer Information Sheet.

Do you cover the inside?

Yes, on request. Many plans include interior service if you see pests.

What if bugs come back?

We re-service for free between scheduled visits.
