    Hartz monitors my termite bait stations. I had a concern that I might have a pest issue so I called for an opinion. Adam showed up at the scheduled time and examined my concern. Assured me (my wife) that what she had noticed was no issue of concern. Very professional. No cost as bait station monitoring includes answering concerns like this.

Company Background

About Hartz Pest Control

Hartz Pest Control is a family owned and operated company that says it has served Greater Houston since 1989. Its office is at 1814 West Sam Houston Parkway North, a commercial building on the Beltway in west Houston, and Google photos show the company's sign on the storefront and its trucks out front.

The Hartz website lists licence #0568516. Texas pest control businesses are licensed by the Texas Department of Agriculture, so you can enter that number in the TDA licence search. The company also lists membership in the National Pest Management Association, the Texas Pest Control Association and the Greater Houston Pest Control Association.

Hartz sells three main plans. BugBarrier Advanced is a quarterly service that covers 25 common indoor and outdoor pests and includes a full inspection and 365 day protection, meaning free retreatment if covered pests come back. BugBarrier plus Termite adds termite protection through the Sentricon system with Always Active baits. BugBarrier Essentials is a one time treatment for an active problem, with a 30 day retreat guarantee. Hartz also handles rodents, rats and mice, mosquito control and bed bug treatment. Prices are not posted, and the site invites callers to ask about current specials.

When you call about termites, ask how often the Sentricon stations are checked and what the yearly renewal costs after the first year, because those details are not posted on the site.

Reviews are strong and steady. Hartz holds 4.8 stars from more than 500 Google reviews, and the newest ones talk about long term results and courteous, punctual technicians. Two technicians, Jake and John S., came up by name, and one reviewer thanked a tech for working carefully around a backyard chicken coop.

The office keeps short hours, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays, so plan calls early in the day.
