Termites
Professional Termites Control Services
Subterranean Termites and Drywood Termites are prevalent, highly destructive structural pests, capable of rapidly consuming wood and creating severe, costly damage. The worker caste constantly forages for cellulose and moisture, using chemical trails and humidity as their primary guides. They locate structural wood by sensing soft spots, moisture sources, and hidden access points within foundations and walls, and they are typically active 24 hours a day within protected environments. While the termites themselves do not directly carry human diseases, their relentless feeding habits lead to the gradual, catastrophic failure of wood supports. Uncontrolled infestations near residential or commercial structures quickly lead to extensive property damage, safety hazards, and a disruptive financial issue that demands professional identification and structural treatment.
How We Control Termites for You
Targeting the Colony: Soil Treatment and Baiting Systems
Our primary methods for immediate control involve Liquid Barrier Soil Treatment and Targeted Baiting Systems. Soil Treatment involves applying a comprehensive liquid termiticide to the soil surrounding the foundation, creating a long-lasting, non-repellent barrier that workers carry back to eliminate the entire colony. Conversely, Targeted Baiting involves strategically placing termite bait stations in the ground around the structure to lure foraging termites to ingest poison and carry it back, ensuring a slow but total colony kill.
Breaking the Cycle: Structural Repair and Exclusion
To comprehensively prevent re-establishment and future problems, we utilize Moisture Control/Structural Repair and Wood Treatment Techniques. Moisture Control involves locating and eliminating sources of excess water (such as leaks, drainage issues, and damp wood) that attract termites and support their colonies. Wood Treatment involves applying specialized wood-preservative chemicals to vulnerable structural timbers to deter future feeding and access. This layered approach is a critical part of our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy.
Signs and Symptoms of Termites Infestation Problems
Termites Infestation Signs
Finding discard winged swarmers (reproductive termites) or small piles of transparent wings near window sills or light sources.
Noticing pencil-sized mud tubes (shelter tubes) running up the foundation walls, basement walls, or in the subfloor area.
Locating clusters of tiny, hard, pellet-like droppings (frass) near infested wood, which resembles salt and pepper (sign of drywood termites).
Finding structural damage such as blistered paint, sagging floors, or hollow-sounding wood when tapped.
Observing small holes or galleries in exposed wooden beams, trim, or furniture, often accompanied by active termite workers or soldiers.
Termites Prevention
prevention tips
Ensure crawl spaces, sub-floors, and basements are well-ventilated and that air bricks or vents are not blocked, to reduce high humidity.
Immediately repair all plumbing, roof, and condensation leaks and ensure proper drainage grading slopes water away from the foundation.
Keep wood-to-soil contact eliminated by ensuring wooden components (fences, decks, beams) are separated from the soil by a concrete or treated-wood buffer.
Do not store firewood, lumber, or paper products against the exterior foundation or inside crawl spaces, as these attract termites and block inspection access.
Remove or manage sources of excess wood and cellulose (like dead tree stumps and garden mulch touching the house) near the building’s perimeter.
