Questions, answered straight

A first general pest control visit usually runs $135 to $225, with recurring quarterly service around $95 to $165. Mosquito service runs $80 to $150 per visit, rodent control with exclusion runs $275 to $650, and bed bug treatment runs $450 to $750 per room. We post real ranges so you can compare before anyone steps on your property.

Most general jobs schedule within the same week, and we keep priority slots for stinging insects, active rodents already inside the living space, and post-storm mosquito surges. We will give you a real arrival window when you book, and if anything changes we call rather than leave you waiting.

Yes. Texas requires every pest control business to hold a license through the Structural Pest Control Service at the Texas Department of Agriculture, and the technician applying product must be a certified applicator. We are licensed and insured and will share our license number and a certificate of insurance on request, which is worth asking any company for before you let them treat your home.

Mosquito control here is a two-part job. First, we treat the shaded foliage and harborage where adult mosquitoes rest during the day. Second, we identify and reduce the standing water sources where they breed - gutters, bromeliads, pool covers, bird baths, plant saucers, and any low spot that holds water for more than four days. Recurring service every three to four weeks through April-to-October mosquito season is what keeps the yard usable, and a single visit usually buys two to three weeks of relief.

German cockroaches breed fast and hide deep in cracks, wall voids, and appliances where a surface spray never reaches, and over-the-counter sprays often scatter them into new harborage. American (palmetto) roaches push in from yard debris, mulch, and sewer lines after rain. We use targeted gel bait and growth regulators for German and perimeter and drain work for palmettos, and we schedule the follow-up that breaks the breeding cycle. That approach ends an infestation that repeated spraying only spreads.

Yes. Roof rats and Norway rats follow Houston's bayou network and the mature live oak canopy through Memorial, the Heights, and West University, and they push into attics, garages, and behind appliances. We trap and remove the active population, then do the exclusion work - sealing roof lines, soffit gaps, weep holes, garage gaps, and utility penetrations. Trapping without sealing just invites the next one in, so the exclusion is the part that actually lasts.

Subterranean termites work the Gulf Coast clay under Houston slabs year round and rarely show themselves until there is damage. Warning signs include mud tubes on foundation walls, hollow-sounding or blistered wood, frass piles near baseboards, and a swarm of winged termites near windows in May. Formosan termites, established across Harris County since the 1960s, swarm in late spring evenings and can build aerial carton nests in attics in addition to the soil colonies. We inspect, document active galleries, identify the species, and treat with a liquid soil barrier or a monitored bait system. Inspection reports are written up for real-estate transactions.

In most cases, yes. We confirm the infestation, then treat with targeted application or whole-room heat depending on how far it has spread. Heat reaches the hiding spots a spray cannot and usually saves the furniture. We schedule a follow-up inspection to confirm the bugs are gone rather than just quiet.

Yes. Most Houston homes do best on a quarterly plan that keeps the perimeter sealed through the long summer push, running about $45 to $60 a month or $120 to $165 a quarter. Mosquito service runs separately every three to four weeks through mosquito season. Plans run month to month or quarter to quarter and you can cancel when the problem is solved. No long lock-in.

Yes - restaurants, short-term rentals, offices, multi-tenant buildings, and retail across the Galleria, the Medical Center, and the wider metro. We provide the documented monthly service that health inspections and property managers require, with logs and reports for each visit. Commercial pricing depends on square footage, pest pressure, and visit frequency, and we quote it after a walkthrough.
