    My grandmother is happy. I don't know if what Ralph did was considered normal or above and beyond but I was very happy with his service for my grandmother’s home. He was very kind and polite and addressed our questions and needs. If I need to use your services again, I would want to request him back to help us. Thank you Ralph!

    I was sitting by the living room window and could see the technician’s work. He only sprayed around the perimeter of the house. I did not see him applying any granules to the yard, nor did he treat the ant mounds. I had specifically pointed out the ongoing ant and spider problems, yet these areas were not addressed.<br><br>I have been a customer since 12 years, but lately, the preventive pest control service has become increasingly ineffective and rushed. It feels as though the technicians are simply going through the motions to show that they visited and did something, rather than actually addressing the pest issues. Unfortunately, the quality and thoroughness of the service have noticeably declined.

Company Background

About Preventive Pest Control

Preventive Pest Control has three Houston area offices. The one in this ranking is the East Houston office at 12009 Almeda Genoa Road, a commercial property in southeast Houston. The company's other offices are on West Gulf Bank Road and in The Woodlands. Preventive says it has been treating Houston homes for almost 20 years.

The website lists licence numbers for both Houston offices: #0560605 for Houston East and #0569758 for Houston West. These are Texas Department of Agriculture structural pest control business licences, and homeowners can look them up on the TDA licence search.

Preventive sells its service as quarterly plans. The Basic plan is advertised from $45 a month and covers more than 12 common pests, includes wasp nest and spider web removal where they can be reached, and comes with free retreatment of covered pests between visits. The Plus plan adds fire ant control. The Premium plan is built from add ons for fire ants, mosquitoes, rodents, termites and exterior fleas and ticks, and it is priced after a free inspection. At the time we checked, the company was running a $69 first service special for new quarterly customers and offering free attic inspections for rodent entry points.

The company calls its exterior method the Shield Protection System. It clears webs and nests from the eaves, sprays the foundation perimeter and then spreads granules further out in the yard. The service list also covers roaches, bed bugs, squirrels, raccoons and other wildlife, wasps and a range of occasional invaders, and it does commercial work too.

Preventive backs its service with a satisfaction guarantee: pests between visits get a free retreatment, and an unhappy customer gets a credit or a refund of the last service fee. The east office holds 4.8 stars from more than 2,300 Google reviews, and the newest reviews praised specific technicians and office staff by name. It is open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
