Cockroaches

Report

Here in Houston, we often refer to American cockroaches as wood roaches. They are also called waterbugs and Palmetto bugs. Regardless of what you call them, they are oval in shape, with long and threadlike antennae. Typically less than 2 inches in length, these roaches are normally reddish brown in color, except for a pale brown figure eight band on the back of the head.

Ants

Report

Argentine Ants are native to Argentina and Brazil, but were introduced to the US aboard coffee ships before 1890. These pests are now found in Texas and throughout the southern US, including in Houston though isolated infestations have been found in other states.

Bed Bugs

Report

In recent years, bed bugs have become a prevalent pest problem in single family dwellings, apartment buildings, hotels, hospitals and other commercial facilities in Houston and throughout the country. Developed resistance to pesticides has often been cited as a factor in the resurgence, as has lack of public awareness and increased global travel.

Termites

Report

New house, old house. residential, commercial. it doesn't matter what type of structure, termites are destructive wherever they go. And unfortunately, they never rest. Working 24/7/365, termites cause significant and extensive damage to every structure they infest. Termite damage can be quite costly and may not be covered by insurance.

Critical: Responsiveness Filled out their contact form on the website well over a week ago. Wife left a voicemail several days ago. I left a voicemail recently as well. All this is in hopes of initiating service. But they haven't gotten back to me.

I have had to remind Holder's that it was time for my yearly termite inspection for about four years now. I called again the last week in June. The receptionist checked and said my reminder letter had been returned. This was the same excuse I got last year. They know my correct address when they come out to do the work. She said she'd get it in the mail and the technician would call me to set up the appointment. Nothing.

I guess they don't want my business very badly or they want my coverage to lapse so they can charge me for a whole new program. Not going to happen. I'll be looking elsewhere.

The one star is only for incorrect information on your website as the correct information is important in the treating and management of a commercial food environment. You state the Red Flour beetle: Appropriately named, the red flour beetle has a habit of infesting flour and will feed on whole kernels or undamaged grain. You are INCORRECT, Actually, the Red Flour ( and Confused beetle ) CANNOT feed on whole kernels or undamaged grains, As scavengers they feed on milled grains and damaged grains.

They have not even visited my residence and I am already displeased. They were hired by my apartment complex to complete a major clean out of all buildings. They left us a polite notice on our doors that the cleaning would occur November 3rd and to please clean out all of our cabinets. I understand this is the typical protocol. We received notice on November 1st.

They did not arrive November 3rd. I have now discovered from the apartment office that they do not intend to actually provide their services until NEXT Thursday, November 10th. So thrilled to be living with everything out of my cabinets and on the floor for the next week.
