About our service
Pest control for Houston, TX
Houston is home to about 2.39 million people, and the pest calls that come from all those households vary as much as the addresses do. A house in Houston Heights, a condo in Midtown and a place near River Oaks all have different crawl spaces, roof lines and landscaping, so we begin by looking at how your particular building is put together rather than reaching for a standard routine.
Natural Pest Solutions serves Houston with ant treatment, rodent control, termite control and a careful pest inspection of the corners people rarely look at. We rely on natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. Nobody has to sign a long-term contract with us, and a free quote comes before any work is scheduled.

Pests we treat around Houston
Pests in Houston
What we deal with most around Houston, TX
Warm, damp weather keeps pests active in Houston nearly all year. Cockroaches are a steady worry in kitchens, garages and older plumbing chases, and cockroach control is one of the most common reasons neighbors reach out. Ants find their way through tiny gaps around windows and pipes, while termites work quietly in wood that stays moist near foundations and fences. Mosquitoes are the other constant, since a bottle cap of standing water is enough for them to breed.
Yards with mature trees and heavy shrubs, the kind you find around parks such as Donovan Park, Stude Park and Woodland Park, tend to shelter rodents, wasps and spiders as well. Rats and mice follow food and shelter into attics and wall voids, and fleas ride in on pets and wildlife. Because so little of the year is cold enough to slow these pests down, a steady preventive routine tends to beat waiting for a problem to show itself.
Weather and pests
How Houston's weather affects pest activity
The figures below are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so treat them as a guide rather than a forecast. In Houston, July highs average about 93 degrees and January lows about 44, with August the warmest month and January the coldest. A typical year brings roughly 54 inches of precipitation and no measurable snow.
Around 109 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher, while only about 5 nights fall to freezing. That means insects rarely get a real winter pause. June is the wettest month at about 7.9 inches, and heavy rain leaves water sitting in gutters, planters, tires and low spots in the yard, which is exactly where mosquito larvae develop.
Moisture is also a friend to termites and carpenter ants, so drainage matters as much as treatment. Keep downspouts pointing away from the foundation, trim plants back from siding and fix slow leaks under sinks. In the short cool spell of winter, rodents still look for warm places, so sealing gaps around pipes and garage doors is worth doing before January arrives.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Houston
Ant treatment in Houston
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Houston, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Hot summers keep colonies growing all season. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Houston
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Houston buildings offer plenty of all three. They can be a year-round issue. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Houston
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. Regular moisture around foundations makes regular checks especially worthwhile. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Houston home is built.
Cockroach control in Houston
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Houston apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Houston
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Houston
Houston's wet weather makes mosquitoes a real nuisance. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
