Services
Termite Control
Our termite control specialists provide comprehensive inspections and treatments for Houston properties. We use advanced chemical barriers and baiting systems to eliminate existing infestations and prevent future damage. Our licensed technicians perform Wood Destroying Insect Reports and offer pre-construction treatments for new buildings.
Animal Removal
We handle nuisance wildlife removal including raccoons, bats, and rodents from residential and commercial properties. Our exclusion methods seal entry points while ensuring humane trapping and relocation. Technicians identify damage patterns and repair vulnerable areas to prevent re-infestation.
Bed Bug Treatment
Our bed bug specialists use heat treatments and targeted chemical applications to eliminate infestations. We inspect mattresses, furniture, and wall voids to identify hotspots. Follow-up treatments ensure complete eradication while minimizing chemical exposure for residents.
Mosquito Control
We install and maintain mosquito misting systems for residential properties while providing targeted treatments for breeding areas. Our barrier sprays reduce mosquito populations by 90% for up to 21 days using EPA-registered solutions safe for families and pets.
Rodent Control
Our rodent control services include trapping, exclusion, and sanitation recommendations. Technicians identify entry points in foundations and walls, then implement sealing solutions. We use tamper-resistant bait stations and provide attic inspections for nesting areas.

The whole team was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. It is hard to find people that know and love their work and I can confidently say Connor Sanford is one of them. I Called them because I had wasp come in to my home and since I have a month old I wanted to take care of the issue immediately. They were on time and most of all detailed in their work. Will definitely recommend this company to friends and family.

I was impressed with the extensive knowledge of the technician who came out to my house last week. I was very happy to get an appointment so quickly, and to have answers to my questions with a plan of action. The treatment was affordable. Customer service rep on the phone was also very pleasant and helpful. Family owned and operated! (Glad to support local!) Highly recommend!!!

I have paid for multiple different pest control companies to try to help with the fire ant issues and not one of companies could solve this issue, I had given up until I stopped by the gulf coast store on clay Rd and as soon as I said the word ant problem, Misty already knew what to give me and informed me all about ants behaviors and habits. Well they gave me what I needed to said wait to give this review, I be damn if within 2 days I can not find a single ant in my yard, flower bed or garden, I paid other companies for over 2 years to do what gulf coast did in 2 days. These guys are for real

Misty was prompt at answering all of my questions over the phone and very knowledgeable and patient. Conner came and did a very thorough home inspection and was honest with his recommendations regarding treatment. I highly recommend this company!

Chatted with Sam about a rodent problem. Incredibly knowledgeable about solutions for local pest problems. Prices are very good (better than online that I purchased before finding this place). now to see if his recommended bait does the job!

I have been a customer of Gulf Coast Exterminators for several years, getting quarterly service for my home. Over the last year, their service quality has gotten really terrible. I've had more than one technician blow off my concerns of mice getting into my home, saying there is no way they can get in despite obvious evidence in my attic and yard that they are, in fact, getting in. They have also stopped spraying my yard unless I call them out for it. I recently had service done. When the technician arrived I let him know that I unlocked the gate to the back yard but that I would be on a conference
