The crew drives 19 miles from a Houston shop to identify, treat and seal out the pests inside Highlands homes.
Kwik Kill Exterminators answers exterminator calls across Highlands, Texas, a Harris County town ringed by the San Jacinto River and the Houston Ship Channel. The crew drives in from a Houston base 19 miles away.
A visit starts with an inspection of the kitchen, attic and foundation line, then a targeted treatment of the rooms and the yard. Follow-up work closes the entry points the pests used.
An exterminator call-out in Highlands covers four jobs: pest identification, indoor treatment, a yard and perimeter band, and entry-point sealing.
The exterminator names the species on the first visit, from the insect in the kitchen to the animal in the attic. Each species takes a different bait and a different room, so the treatment starts from the identification rather than from a standard spray.
Bait dots go behind Highlands kitchen cabinets and under sinks, where indoor insects feed and breed. The exterminator treats wall voids, water heater closets and plumbing gaps on the same visit. The family stays in the house while the treatment dries.
A treated band around the slab stops ants and crawling insects walking in from the yard. Floodwater from the San Jacinto River pushes yard colonies onto the high bank Highlands sits on. The crew treats each colony where it sits.
Attic pests climb the trees along the Union Pacific Railroad line and enter through soffit vents and gaps at the weep holes. The exterminator seals those openings with metal mesh so the next one finds no way in.

An exterminator visit in a Highlands home runs in four steps: the walk-through, the treatment, the sealing work, and the follow-up check.
The exterminator walks the kitchen, attic, garage and slab line, then names what left the damage, the shed skins or the trails. Highlands homes on the high river bank show damp-loving pests first, so the water heater closet and the plumbing chase come early.
Treatment follows the identification inside the same appointment. Bait goes into cabinet hinges and wall voids indoors. Granular bait rings the slab outdoors, and traps go into the attic runs. The exterminator skips whole-house fogging, which drives pests deeper into a Highlands wall.
Sealing closes the road in. The crew fits weep-hole screens and door sweeps, and packs the gaps where cable and plumbing lines pass the slab. Highlands yards backing onto the railroad and the river hand pests a straight line into the attic.
A follow-up visit reads the bait stations and the traps, then re-treats anything still active. A one-time treatment ends there, with no schedule attached. Highlands homes beside the San Jacinto River take a repeat slot instead, because the water line keeps pushing pests back toward the houses.
The crew reaches six Highlands neighborhoods inside the 77562 zip:
Four questions come up on nearly every Highlands exterminator call: cost, the drive from Houston, safety indoors, and whether one treatment finishes the job.
