Why Quarterly Pest Control Matters in Katy, TX
Katy's warm Texas climate can support pest activity throughout much of the year. Changes in temperature, rainfall and moisture can affect when and where pests become active around your property.
Rather than waiting until pest activity becomes a major problem, regular quarterly service helps maintain exterior protection and address covered pest activity throughout the year.
Our goal is simple: keep common household pests under control while minimizing the need for routine interior treatments.

Why Quarterly Pest Control Works
Your general pest control service includes a 2-month warranty according to the applicable product label.
So why do we schedule service every three months?
Because in our experience, the vast majority of our customers maintain excellent results on a continuous quarterly schedule, with most customers not beginning to notice significant activity from covered pests until around the third month.
Quarterly service provides a practical balance between maintaining exterior protection and avoiding unnecessary monthly treatments.
Maintain Your Exterior Protection
Texas heat, UV exposure, rain and changing weather can affect exterior pest treatments over time. Regular service helps refresh that protection as conditions change.
Stay Ahead of Seasonal Pest Activity
Quarterly service gives us regular opportunities to address covered pest activity before it becomes a larger problem.
Minimize Interior Treatments
After the initial treatment, routine quarterly service is exterior only. The goal is to maintain protection around your home without routinely treating the inside.

Your first service is a comprehensive treatment designed to address existing pest activity and establish your home's initial protection. During this visit, we treat both the interior and exterior of your property.

The goal is to address existing activity and give your quarterly program a strong starting point.

Need Treatment for Something Else?
Not every pest problem falls under the standard quarterly program.
If you're dealing with termites, rodents, mosquitoes, wasps, spiders or another pest, Alco may recommend an additional or specialized treatment to provide the appropriate level of protection and warranty.
Alco Pest Control also offers the following services for Katy and surrounding Houston area properties.
Termite Control
Concerned about termites or possible termite damage? Termites can damage structural wood while remaining hidden from view. Mud tubes, discarded wings, termite swarmers, and unexplained wood damage may be warning signs that professional termite evaluation is needed.
Alco provides professional termite inspections and targeted treatment options based on the type and location of activity. Explore professional termite inspections and treatment options to help protect your home from termite damage by reviewing our Termite Control in Houston page.
Rodent Control
Hearing scratching in your attic? Finding rodent droppings? Noticing unusual unexplained odors coming from ceilings, walls, or other enclosed spaces? Rats and mice require a specialized control approach.
Alco provides specialized rodent inspections and control recommendations to help identify activity and potential entry points. Get help addressing rat and mouse activity, identifying entry points, and preventing future problems by going to our Rodent Control in Houston page.
Mosquito Control
Getting eaten alive by mosquitoes? Mosquitoes can interfere with outdoor dining, patios, landscaping and backyard activities. Katy's shaded outdoor areas, landscaped courtyards, patios, and gardens can provide favorable resting areas for mosquitoes.
Alco offers specialized targeted mosquito treatments to help manage mosquito activity around appropriate outdoor areas. Learn about targeted treatments to help manage mosquitoes around your yard and outdoor living spaces by exploring our Mosquito Control in Houston page.
Fire Ant Control
Finding fire ant colonies throughout the lawn? For homeowners who want more comprehensive fire ant protection, our specialized whole-yard treatment goes beyond treating individual visible mounds.
Alco's comprehensive whole-yard fire ant service includes a one-year colony-elimination guarantee. If fire ant colonies return during the guarantee period, we'll retreat the property at no additional charge, no questions asked. This guarantee applies to the specialized whole-yard fire ant service, not standard quarterly pest control. Discover specialized whole-yard treatments designed to target fire ant colonies by taking a look at our Fire Ant Control in Houston page.
