La Porte is where Galveston Bay meets the Port of Houston, with Sylvan Beach on one side and Barbours Cut on the other. O'Connor Pest Control helps its businesses and bayfront homes stay pest-free.
Look out from Sylvan Beach Park and you'll see why La Porte has always been tied to the water. Founded in 1892 as a bayfront development, the town drew crowds to its beach and pavilion in the 1920s and 1930s. Today container ships head for Barbours Cut Terminal, the Bayport Terminal sits just to the south, and the San Jacinto Monument rises over the battleground at the edge of town. O'Connor Pest Control serves La Porte from our home base in Huntsville.
Our company has been family-owned since Michael O'Connor founded it in Houston in 1990. He and Lacy run it today, and they're the ones who answer the phone. We cover all of Greater Houston, including the communities along Galveston Bay.
The large majority of our work is commercial. In La Porte that means logistics companies, warehouses and container yards tied to the port, businesses in and around the Bayport and Battleground industrial districts, and the restaurants, hotels, offices and retail stores along SH 146. Shipping and storage facilities can't afford rodents in the freight. We respond within 24 hours, inspect for free and build a monthly or quarterly plan.
Bayfront living brings bayfront pests. Salt marsh and low ground hold water for mosquitoes, humid air keeps roaches active nearly year-round, and roof rats travel easily between docks, warehouses and homes. Hurricanes and storm surge have hit La Porte hard over the years, and flooding pushes fire ants and rodents indoors. Subterranean termites, including Formosan termites found across the Houston area, thrive in the damp coastal soil.
La Porte homeowners and businesses choose O'Connor for straight answers and careful work: inspections with moisture meters, cameras and UV lights, a service ticket every visit and a 100% satisfaction standard. Homeowners never need a contract, and our Mist Away systems help reclaim the backyard from mosquitoes. Call Michael at 281-374-6902 and we'll set up a free inspection.
