## Also operates in Texas

## How we ranked

The State Score runs from 0 to 10 with the same factors and weights as the Handshake Score. For each factor, when a company’s research record ties evidence to Texas, only the Texas evidence counts and the table marks the factor In-state. When it can’t, the factor uses the company’s whole record and is marked Company-wide. Licensing and the legal record can be marked In-state + company-wide: Texas records count together with federal and multi-state ones.

The review-volume and verification-depth adjustment from the overall score applies too, with its thresholds scaled to the size of Texas’s Google review market on file compared with the Pacific Northwest’s, where the thresholds were set. How many states, or how many locations, a company has doesn’t change its State Score.

To be ranked, a company needs a location on file in Texas and at least 100 Google reviews on its Texas listings. Companies with a location here but less in-state evidence are listed under “Also operates in Texas.”

Ties are broken by in-state Google review volume. A factor with no usable inputs is left out and the other weights are scaled up, exactly as in the overall score. The Handshake Score on each company’s page rates its whole operation in the region it is scored in and also takes points off a company with fewer than 10 locations of its own, which a State Score doesn’t.

This ranking covers the companies we’ve researched and verified in Texas. It isn’t every pest control company in Texas, and we may add more.

[All-Safe Pest & Termite review](https://handshakereviews.com/companies/all-safe-pest-and-termite.md) · [ABC Home & Commercial Services review](https://handshakereviews.com/companies/abc-home-and-commercial-services.md) · [Bulwark Exterminating review](https://handshakereviews.com/companies/bulwark-exterminating.md)

### How is the Texas State Score different from the Handshake Score?

The Handshake Score on each company’s page rates its whole operation in the region it is scored in. The Texas ranking uses the State Score, which counts Texas evidence where the record has it (Google reviews, BBB complaints and pesticide licenses) and the company’s whole record for the rest. A company needs at least 100 Google reviews on its Texas listings to be ranked here.
