Request pest controlWhy inspections matter
Termites can feed inside walls and floors for a long time before anything shows. A yearly inspection catches activity early, before repairs become expensive.
Subterranean termites
These live in the soil and build mud tubes to reach wood. Moist soil around foundations, leaky gutters and wood touching the ground give them an easy path.
Drywood termites
Drywood termites live inside the wood itself and don't need soil contact. They're treated differently, sometimes by fumigation or spot treatment.
Swarm season
Winged termites swarm in spring and early summer, often after warm rain. A swarm indoors is a reason for an inspection.
Treatment options
Liquid soil treatments create a barrier around the foundation; bait systems draw termites to stations around the house. The company will explain which suits your home.
Reduce the risk
Keep mulch and soil away from siding, fix leaks, direct downspouts away from the foundation and store firewood off the ground.
Buying or selling
Many home sales include a wood-destroying organism inspection. Ask for the report and any treatment history.
Before treatment
The company may need access along the foundation, inside garages and in crawl spaces. Clear stored items away from walls before the visit.
After treatment
Keep the treated zone undisturbed. Tell the company before adding a patio, flower beds or a fence along the foundation.
