Exterminator Pest Control Solutions
Comprehensive Home Pest Control Services
During our initial free pest control inspection, a licensed technician will visit your Houston home or business to assess current pest problems and any related damage. Houston’s subtropical climate makes it a year-round hotspot for pests like termites, cockroaches, fire ants, and mosquitoes — so proactive treatment matters. We evaluate structural issues and sanitation practices contributing to your pest issues, then create a fully customized treatment plan for your situation.
Common Household Pests
Houston homeowners deal with a unique mix of pests driven by heat, humidity, and the Gulf Coast climate.

Termite Control
Termites are one of Houston’s most destructive pests – the city’s warm, humid climate makes it one of the highest-risk termite areas in Texas. ABC Home & Commercial can quickly pinpoint the source of your problem and provide long-lasting termite control using proven treatment methods.
Knowing when to check for termites is essential… here’s why:
- A single termite colony can chew through an entire 2×4. If they happen to choose a support beam for a load bearing wall, the damage could be costly.
- Termites resemble ants but cause more extensive damage. If you see a bug and you’re not sure what it is, it’s best to be on the safe side and get it checked out.
- Even new-builds can be vulnerable to termite infestations. Before it becomes an issue, have your new home inspected for termites so that you can enjoy it rather than worry about repairs.

We provide the following rodent and wildlife control services:

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon can you come out?
For roaches, ants, spiders, fleas, and mosquitoes, ABC offers same-day service Monday through Friday when you book online before 1pm. Visit our estimate page to book instantly, or call us at (281) 730-9500. For other pest services, we can typically schedule within 1-2 business days.
What happens after the free inspection?
After your free inspection, ABC will provide a customized pest management plan and estimate. Once approved, we schedule your initial treatment — usually within 3-4 business days. Follow-up visits include treating outdoor hiding spots, entry points like wall voids and weep holes, and perimeter prevention to stop pests from returning.
How often do you service my property?
Most Houston homeowners on ABC’s ongoing program receive quarterly treatments. Some pests like mosquitoes or termites may require more frequent service depending on your treatment plan and the severity of the infestation.
What if I still see pests after a treatment?
It is not unusual to see an increase in pests as we apply treatments which often drive these animals out of their normal hiding spots. The good news is that the pests which emerge will then carry the treatments back to their nests. If you do not experience a decrease in pests after 7-10 days, contact ABC and we will send a technician back to your property. Any return visits by our pest control specialists after the initial 7-10 days and within the first 30 days are of no charge to you.
Are the products which you use safe for pets and children?
Yes. ABC uses EPA-approved products and applies them with the safety of your family and pets as the top priority. We minimize chemical use wherever possible and can provide Material Safety Data Sheets for any product used in your home. Let your technician know about any specific health concerns before treatment begins.
How much does pest control cost in Houston?
Pest control costs in Houston vary depending on the type of pest, size of your property, and treatment plan. ABC offers free, no-obligation inspections so you get an accurate quote before any work begins. Most ongoing maintenance plans are priced per visit with no surprise fees.
