Why West University Place Homes Need Year Round Pest Control
West University Place is known for its mature trees, beautiful landscaping, and established residential neighborhoods.
However, those same features can create favorable environments for pests.
Mature trees and landscaping
Provide shelter, shade, and pathways for insects.
Irrigation and moisture
Can attract roaches, silverfish, and other moisture-loving pests.
Warm Houston temperatures
Allow pest activity throughout much of the year.
Cracks and structural openings
Provide entry points around foundations, plumbing, doors, and windows.
Seasonal rainfall
Can disturb outdoor pest populations and drive insects toward protected areas.
Instead of waiting until pests become a problem inside your home, Alco's quarterly pest control program focuses on maintaining consistent exterior protection.

How Alco's Quarterly Pest Control Works
Your Initial Interior & Exterior Treatment
Your first visit is a comprehensive service designed to address existing covered pest activity and establish protection around your home.
Depending on your property and pest concerns, treatments may include appropriate areas such as:
-
Interior baseboards and accessible cracks and crevices
-
Kitchens and bathrooms
-
Areas beneath sinks
-
Exterior foundations and perimeter areas
-
Door and window entry points
-
Accessible eaves and weep holes
-
Garages and other appropriate pest entry areas
-
Landscaped areas immediately surrounding the home
Our technicians focus on treatment locations appropriate for your property and the pests being addressed.
Quarterly Exterior Pest Protection
After the initial service, scheduled quarterly treatments focus exclusively on the exterior of your home.
Approximately every 12 weeks, we return to refresh exterior protection and address covered pest activity.
By maintaining protection where pests commonly enter, our goal is to reduce the need for repeated indoor treatments.
Another convenient benefit: Because routine quarterly visits are exterior-only, you generally don't need to be home for service as long as our technicians can access the treatment areas.

For homeowners experiencing extensive fire ant activity, we offer comprehensive whole-yard fire ant control backed by a 1-year colony-elimination guarantee, including free retreatment if colonies return during the guarantee period, no questions. asked.
Termites, rodents, mosquitoes, and certain other infestations require separate specialized treatments.
