Pest control costs in Texas typically range from $150 to $350 for a one-time treatment, depending on property size and pest type. Quarterly plans usually run $100–$200 per visit. Termite treatments and fumigation cost more, often $500–$2,500 depending on the severity and method used.

An inactive license means the company has not renewed their TPCL with the Texas Department of Agriculture. This could be due to business closure, failure to meet insurance requirements, or voluntary non-renewal. Companies with inactive licenses cannot legally perform pest control services in Texas.

Texas has three main termite types: Eastern subterranean termites (most common, found statewide), Formosan subterranean termites (aggressive species in Southeast Texas and coastal areas), and drywood termites (found in attics and furniture, mainly in South and Coastal Texas). Each requires different treatment approaches.

Termites are found throughout Texas, but subterranean termites are especially active in the eastern and southern regions with higher moisture levels. The Gulf Coast and East Texas have the highest termite pressure, including aggressive Formosan termites. Regardless of location, annual inspections are recommended for all Texas homeowners.
