Third Coast Home and Commercial Services

Yes. Third Coast Home and Commercial Services holds an active Structural Pest Control Business License, TPCL #798501, issued by the Texas Department of Agriculture. The license was first issued on December 20, 2018 and is valid through December 31, 2026. The certified applicator responsible for the license is CHRISTOPHER S SEIDEMAN.

Third Coast Home and Commercial Services is licensed by the Texas Department of Agriculture for 3 service categories: pest control, termite treatment, and lawn & landscape care. Each category is a separate authorization on TPCL #798501, so the company may only perform work it is explicitly licensed for. Notably, it is one of only 74 of the 246 active companies in Houston licensed for lawn & landscape care.

Among the 228 rated pest control companies in Houston, Third Coast Home and Commercial Services ranks #7 by Google rating (5 stars vs. a local average of 4.7). Its 273 customer reviews put it ahead of 79% of local rated companies by review volume. The company has held its TPCL license since 2018, longer than 33% of active licensees in Houston.

Organic methods such as diatomaceous earth, essential oil repellents, and boric acid can be effective for certain pests. However, they often work more slowly and may not be sufficient for severe infestations. Many Texas companies offer green or low-toxicity options that balance effectiveness with environmental responsibility.

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.

General pest control (Category P) covers common household pests including cockroaches, ants, spiders, silverfish, earwigs, crickets, centipedes, and occasional invaders. Some companies include mosquito and flea treatments in their general service, while others offer these as add-ons.

The two-step method is most effective: first, broadcast a bait product across your entire yard when ants are actively foraging (mornings or evenings in moderate weather). Then, treat individual mounds directly with a contact insecticide 3–5 days later. Professional treatment is recommended for large properties or persistent infestations.
