Pest Control - Find a Reliable Pest Control Company


When ants invade your home, it's very difficult to get rid of them. When you kill the ones in your home, more just keep coming. No matter how long you keep trying to kill them, up to 1,600 more are born every day so their nest never empties. It's also very difficult to neutralize the scent trail they lay to lead the rest of their nest to their current food source - your home. Their bites are painful and can even leave welts, especially when they come from the Texas Fire Ant. When it comes to your family, it's not a chance you want to take.

Cockroaches are a serious health concern. Even if you keep your house spic and span they are extremely resourceful in finding sources of nutrition. They leave shed body parts lying around as well as reproduce at an shocking rate. When you actually see them, chances are they've already established a large colony that will be very difficult to get rid of.

People cringe at the variety of spiders found in the Houston area. There are the ones so common they've been dubbed 'house' spiders. But there are also the more poisonous species of the Brown Recluse and the Black Widow. Because spiders are not insects, but arachnids, their habits differentiate. They walk on the tips of their feet keeping the rest of their body away from most surfaces. They also do not groom themselves as most other insects do which makes most pest control rather ineffective.

The reasons for finding a reliable Houston pest control company are numerous, but so are the choices. How do you narrow them down to fit what you and your family needs? It may help to know what kind of options quality exterminating businesses offer.

Cost is often the first thing that comes to mind. However, don't just accept a flat estimate. Establish everything their charge covers. Some companies will only charge for outside, or for inside, or both. Find out if they charge for each time they come out to your house or if free, unlimited retreatments are included in their service. Some Houston pest control companies will only charge for yard and foundation treatments in confidence that the barrier they create around your home will be all that you need. In the chance that it isn't enough for your pest problem they will even offer treatments on the inside for free as many times as needed to eliminate the pest population. But above all, they should guarantee 100% satisfaction on every service they provide.

The thought that usually follows immediately after the question of cost is the question of chemicals that will be used. Unfortunately bugs are not the only ones that are effected by these harsh chemicals. Children and pets can also have a negative reaction to the chemicals that are used to exterminate your household pests. Establish for sure that the chemicals your Houston pest control company will use are the safest, finest, and still the most effective products out there. The kind that doesn't come with a warning label because it's safe enough it doesn't need one. No one wants to add to their worries, just exterminate them.

Find out if your prospective Houston pest control company also keeps their technicians informed on pests that have been imported into your area, if any. Are they trained on the many different pests that plague residents' homes as well as their habits and hiding places. If not, their treatments are going to have minimal impact on the household pest population.

Last, but certainly not least, once you've decided on who will best meet your needs, will they go beyond that and actually show up within the time frame you've scheduled? The sign of a good Houston pest control company is one who has an anti "no-show" policy where if their technician doesn't show up within your scheduled time frame without calling prior, then your regular service is no longer charged to you. Also, one that recognizes that no one wants to use up vacation time to meet with the bug guy therefore make their hours more flexible than the standard work day.

Overall, a company who appreciates your business and earns your trust through quality service has the makings for a respectable company/client relationship. Make sure that the Houston pest control company you hire customizes their treatments to your needs.
