ABC’s Effective and Low-Impact Pest Management Approach
Our philosophy on pest control balances a comprehensive understanding of pest behavior with a practical approach to keeping pests away from your property. ABC has over seven decades of experience serving home and business owners. We have grown into the state’s largest independently owned and operated pest control company by adopting a philosophy supported by many large institutions, including the Environmental Protection Agency.
The Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach prioritizes effective interventions that are low impact. Recognizing the interconnected nature of all the parts of an ecosystem, these techniques apply lessons learned from entomology, animal behavior, biology and horticulture to solve even the most challenging pest problems.
Our Harlingen customers appreciate that IPM emphasizes the use of non-chemical interventions first. ABC’s technicians will pinpoint how these pests are making their way onto your property and install protective measures to keep them away. We will also look for areas of moisture in your yard that could be harboring insects and animals or providing potential breeding areas.

Our Comprehensive Pest Treatment Plans
A well-designed treatment plan is the key to successful, long-term protection against common household pests. This begins with your free inspection, during which a trained and knowledgeable ABC inspector will do the following:
- Ask you questions to gather the information needed to target the pests and areas which are at the root of your problem.
- Conduct an initial assessment of the extent and severity of your infestation.
- Document any associated damage to your home or belongings.
- Determine what unique conditions or factors might make your home or property more attractive to pests.
- Pinpoint areas where uninvited guests are making their entrance.
- Give you a chance to ask us any questions you may have about our treatments or pest control philosophy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will I need to wait for my service call?
We know that when you spot a cockroach in your kitchen or a rat in your garage, you want it addressed as soon as possible. When we can, we try to give our customers an estimate over the phone so we can schedule your first service call immediately.
The most effective treatment plans are based on a custom solution. In many cases, we will request that an inspector meet you at your home to better understand your problem. In most cases, based on your availability, this can happen in just a few business days. We’ll deliver a treatment plan created just for you after that meeting takes place. After you review and approve our complimentary, no-obligation estimate, we can schedule your first service call.
What’s the usual duration for your pest control treatments?
Unfortunately, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to pests. Each pest problem requires a slightly different approach, and while customers want their issues resolved in just one visit, this often isn’t realistic. Pest activity does tend to be cyclical in nature, so we recommend ongoing monitoring to ensure you are protected from pests all year long.
The length of your treatment program will vary depending on what time of the year you contact us and what insects or animals are causing the infestation. To better protect homeowners against the most common household pests, we now offer year-round service to control the “big four” pests in Harlingen: roaches, mosquitoes, spiders and scorpions.
Will I need to be at home for every treatment?
We know our customers lead busy lives, which is why we offer outdoor-only services. Customers who take advantage of this option can get periodic treatments along their home’s exterior to prevent insects and other pests from entering their home. We just ask that you give our team members instructions on accessing your home’s exterior, like providing gate codes.
How does ABC handle honey bees?
Honey bees are one of the most important pollinators in our environment, and we work hard to protect them. If you believe you have honey bees in your home or yard, we’re glad to provide you with the names and numbers of local beekeepers who can remove and relocate the hive.
