Find care for my home
Typically late spring through fall
Humidity, frequent rain and mild winters keep mosquitoes active far longer here than in Central or North Texas. Bayous, retention ponds and the shaded, damp corners of a yard are where they rest and breed, so treatment targets those spots and repeats through the season instead of trying to solve it in one visit.
Swarms typically May to June
Formosan subterranean termites are established across the Houston area. They build large colonies and swarm on warm, humid evenings in late spring, drawn to porch and street lights. A swarm near the house, or discarded wings on a windowsill, is a reason to schedule an inspection rather than wait and see.

A LITTLE CLARITY GOES A LONG WAY.
Your Houston pest control and lawn care questions, answered.
Talk with our team: (832) 662-7111 ↗Yes. Request pest control, lawn fertilization and weed control, or both through the same Root team. We will discuss your home, grass type and current concerns to recommend a plan.
We cover eight counties around Houston - Harris, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Brazoria, Galveston, Chambers, Liberty and Waller - from Katy and Sugar Land in the west and southwest, up to The Woodlands and Conroe, east to Baytown, and south toward League City and Friendswood. If you are not sure your address is inside that, call (832) 662-7111 and we will check the map with you.
Same-day service is available. Call early in the day and we will tell you straight what the Houston routes can do - we would rather give you a real time than a hopeful one.
Warm, humid spring evenings are when Formosan termites swarm in the Houston area, and they are drawn to lights. A termite swarmer has straight antennae, a thick waist, and two pairs of wings the same size; a winged ant has bent antennae, a pinched waist, and a shorter back pair of wings. Either way, catch a few in a bag and book an inspection so it gets identified properly.
Not down to zero, and we will not pretend otherwise in this climate. What treatment does is knock down the resting and breeding spots around your property on a repeating schedule, which is what makes a yard usable again. Emptying standing water after rain helps more than most people expect.
No. No contracts, cancel anytime, no cancellation fee. Pest control runs as a quarterly program, and we earn the next visit every time.
Your technician will explain any preparation and re-entry instructions for the treatment used at your property. Follow those instructions before allowing children or pets back into a treated area.
