Pest Control Designed for Energy Corridor Homes
West Houston Living Comes With Year-Round Pest Challenges
The Energy Corridor is one of Houston's distinctive communities, combining established residential neighborhoods, apartment and townhome developments, office buildings, restaurants, and beautiful green spaces.
From the neighborhoods surrounding Memorial Drive and Eldridge Parkway to properties near Dairy Ashford Road, Interstate 10, and Terry Hershey Park, the area offers a wonderful combination of city conveniences and outdoor living.
Unfortunately, the same conditions that make the Energy Corridor attractive can also create favorable environments for household pests. Houston's warm temperatures, humidity, seasonal rainfall, mature trees, landscaping, and moisture around buildings can contribute to pest activity throughout the year.
Common conditions that attract pests include:
-
Moisture around foundations, patios, and landscaping
-
Mulch, leaf litter, and dense vegetation close to exterior walls
-
Small gaps around doors, windows, plumbing, and utility openings
-
Garages and storage areas with hiding places
-
Seasonal rainfall and changing temperatures that drive insects toward shelter
That's why Alco focuses on more than the pests you see. We focus on where they're coming from and how to reduce their opportunities to get inside.

What Pests Does Alco's General Pest Control Cover?
Our quarterly general pest control program is designed to help manage common household pests found throughout the Energy Corridor and surrounding Houston communities.
Cockroach Control
Seeing large roaches in your garage, kitchen, bathroom, or around exterior doors? Houston's warm, humid climate creates favorable conditions for large outdoor cockroaches. These pests can enter through door gaps, plumbing penetrations, garages, and other openings. Our general pest service targets covered roach activity while helping establish an exterior barrier to reduce future entry.
Silverfish Control
Silverfish are commonly associated with humid areas, including bathrooms, closets, laundry rooms, and storage spaces. Our treatments help manage silverfish activity in appropriate interior and exterior areas.
Earwig Control
Earwigs often hide in damp landscaping, mulch, flower beds, and other sheltered areas surrounding homes. Exterior pest treatments can help reduce their activity near your foundation and potential entry points.
Centipede & Millipede Control
These moisture loving pests can appear around patios, garages, entryways, and bathrooms, especially when outdoor conditions change. Our general pest program helps manage these occasional invaders around your property.
Occasional Spider Activity
Occasional spiders are addressed during general pest service when appropriate. However, a spider infestation requires specialized treatment and is not covered by our standard general pest control service.
Courtesy Fire Ant Mound Treatment
As a courtesy to our general pest control customers, we treat visible fire ant mounds found during regular service. This complimentary treatment is not warrantied and is different from our comprehensive whole-yard fire ant program. If you're dealing with recurring fire ant colonies throughout your lawn, Alco also offers specialized whole-yard fire ant treatment backed by a 1-year colony-elimination guarantee, including free retreatment if colonies return during the guarantee period.

What's Included in Alco's Quarterly Pest Control Service?
Initial Interior & Exterior Pest Treatment
Your first service is designed to address existing covered pest activity and establish initial protection around your home.
Our technicians treat appropriate interior areas where common household pests may hide or enter, including:
-
Baseboards and selected interior perimeter areas
-
Kitchen and bathroom cracks and crevices
-
Accessible areas beneath sinks
-
Other appropriate pest activity and entry point locations
We also treat the exterior of your property, focusing on areas where pests may travel, hide, or enter.
Exterior Power Spray Protection
Our exterior Power Spray focuses on creating a protective barrier around your home's foundation.
Where appropriate, treatment extends approximately 3 feet up exterior walls and 3 feet out from the foundation.
Depending on your property and treatment requirements, we may also focus on appropriate exterior areas around:
-
Exterior walls and foundations
-
Doors and windows
-
Garage entry points
-
Flower beds and landscaped areas
-
Eaves (sweep and treat)
-
Other accessible exterior areas
-
Patio and backyard areas where covered pests may be active
Our goal is to reduce pest activity outside before those pests become an indoor problem.
Ongoing Quarterly Exterior Service
After the initial interior and exterior treatment, routine quarterly visits focus on the exterior of your home. We typically return every 12 weeks to refresh your exterior protection and address covered pest activity as conditions change. Because routine maintenance takes place outdoors, you generally do not need to be home, provided we can access the necessary exterior treatment areas. That's professional pest control designed to fit your schedule instead of interrupting it.

Why Quarterly Pest Control Makes Sense in Energy Corridor
Maintain Protection Through Houston's Changing Weather
Houston's intense heat, humidity, UV exposure, and rainfall can affect pest activity and exterior treatments over time. Regular quarterly service helps maintain your protective barrier as conditions change.
Address Problems Before They Become Infestations
Small pest problems can become larger concerns when left untreated. Regular service provides opportunities to identify changing pest activity and recommend appropriate action before problems escalate.
Reduce the Need for Routine Interior Treatments
Instead of automatically treating the inside of your home every few months, Alco concentrates ongoing maintenance outdoors. Our exterior focused approach helps maintain protection while avoiding unnecessary routine interior treatments.
Enjoy Consistent Service Without a Contract
You shouldn't have to sign a contract to protect your property. Alco believes in earning your business with every visit, not keeping you locked into an agreement. No contracts. No cancellation penalties. Just dependable, professional service.
