I signed up for a year and I love it! Quartly sprays with no hassle. James does a great job everytime! We've had no issues, and in the country, that's rare. We usually get everything out here.
Jordan was a professional from start to finish. He was very thorough in explaining what treatments he was applying, how long they last and what was their purpose. I highly recommend Jordan and Cen-Tex Pest Control and remember to always support local!
James did an amazing job. Highly recommend!!

Jordan did an excellent job helping us to control ants and other insects around and inside our home. He was very concerned and polite. Highly recommend.
We have always gotten great service from Cen-Tex Pest Control, and we had a great experience working with James, especially on this urgent, same-day call for help! Pest control isn't necessarily pleasant, but James sure is
I have been using send text pest control for several years. I have problems with large red wasp every time they come and spray I never have any problems afterwards they always do a good job.
Jordan was very professional and did a great job of solving our ant infestation problem
James was very professional and courteous. This was the initial visit so he made sure I understood the terms and cost etc.
We are currently renting and the house we went with was vacant for 6+ months. It was infested with wasp nests, ants and spiders. Brandon was extremely professional, did very thorough and outstanding job clearing out numerous wasp nests, spider webs, and spraying for ants.
James was very nice! Did everything that was needed! Would recommend!

First time to use today. Very courteous and very professional. Bee extermination. If not gone, they will come back in 30 days
HANDS DOWN THE BEST PEST CONTROL COMPANY EVER As a maintenance director and being in property management for 14 years, I've used several pest control companies all over Waco.... CEN-TEX IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST.....
I’ve been using Centex since they’ve first opened and will never go with any other company. They are reliable, efficient and truly care about their customers!!
Great service and friendly
James was wonderful, very intuitive, and through with his services. He explained and and answered all questions I had. Price was extremely reasonable for a one time inside/outside for wasps/other country "bugs". If we decide to continue with quartly service, we will call CenTex Pest Control right back out 🙂
James did a great and thorough job, thanks!

We have used Cen-Tex Pest Control for about 5 yrs now, and Brandon has serviced us all this time. Not only is he such a delight to have in our home, he is extremely thorough in his work.
