Termite Control built for Houston homes
Houston is a national hotspot for destructive Formosan subterranean termites, and termite control here is less about if and more about ongoing protection. The warm, saturated soil and long humid season let subterranean colonies stay active for much of the year, and Formosan colonies in particular can be large and aggressive. Treatment matched in this market typically centers on soil and structural protection rather than spot fixes.
In Houston specifically: Formosan termite swarms appear on warm, humid evenings in May and June across Harris County, and the city's saturated clay-heavy soils give subterranean colonies easy, year-round access to wood at the foundation line.
Local climate & pest pressure: Houston's humid subtropical climate, low elevation, and frequent heavy rainfall keep the soil and air saturated year-round, fueling explosive mosquito breeding and constant subterranean and Formosan termite activity. Subterranean activity continues much of the year, with visible Formosan swarms concentrated on warm humid evenings in May and June.

Frequently asked questions
BestPest is a free service that matches you with a licensed termite company; it does not inspect or treat homes. In Houston, swarms on warm, humid May and June evenings are commonly Formosan subterranean termites, which the area is known for, but only an on-site inspector can confirm the species and the extent of colony activity. A matched local company can identify what you are dealing with and recommend protection.
BestPest is a free matching service and does not quote prices. Termite cost is generally influenced by the size and construction of the home, the treatment method, and whether an active Formosan colony is already established, which is a real consideration in this city. The company you are matched with can provide an estimate after inspecting the structure and surrounding soil.
Yes. BestPest is completely free for homeowners. We connect you with a licensed local pest control company, and you only pay that company for the actual work.
No. Some lead sites sell your information to a dozen companies and your phone blows up. BestPest connects you with a single local pro, so you'll hear from that one company (and us), not a crowd of telemarketers fighting over your number.
Most homeowners are connected with a local pro the same day and scheduled within the week. For urgent issues like wasps or rodents, let us know and we'll prioritize you.
