Pencil-sized tubes of dirt running up your exterior foundation walls. Subterranean termites build these pathways to travel safely from the moisture in the soil to your home's wood without drying out.
Finding piles of translucent, identical wings near windowsills or doors is a major red flag. These are left behind by "swarmers" (reproductive termites) looking to mate and start a new colony inside your home.
Termites eat wood from the inside out, leaving a thin veneer of timber or paint. Tap on your baseboards or exposed beams with a screwdriver handle. If it sounds hollow or papery, you likely have an infestation.
DIY methods like vinegar or hardware store sprays only kill the few bugs you see. To get rid of termites permanently, you must destroy the colony at its source.
We apply an invisible, continuous chemical barrier around your home's foundation. Termites pass through, carrying the termiticide back to the underground nest, effectively wiping out the entire colony.
Strategically placed bait stations around your property attract foraging termites. They share the bait with the queen, halting the colony's growth and destroying it from the inside out.
For localized drywood termite issues, our technicians drill directly into the affected wood and inject specialized foams and treatments into the termite galleries to kill them instantly.
For severe, widespread Drywood termite infestations, structural fumigation (tenting) is the only guaranteed way to ensure gas penetrates every inch of wood to eliminate the pests.
Termite treatment is not a DIY job. When your home's structural integrity is on the line, you need experienced professionals who back their work with guarantees.

Answers to your most pressing questions about getting rid of termites.
It is highly discouraged. Termite colonies are massive, often containing hundreds of thousands of insects hidden deep underground or within your walls. Over-the-counter DIY sprays only kill the few worker termites you see on the surface, leaving the queen and the root colony completely untouched to continue destroying your home.
The fastest and most effective method depends entirely on the species. For subterranean termites, professional liquid soil treatments establish an immediate defensive barrier. For drywood termites, targeted structural injections or whole-home fumigation are required to kill them instantly inside the wood.
While a single termite eats very little, they operate in colonies. A mature colony containing a few hundred thousand workers can consume roughly a pound of wood per day. Left unchecked, they can severely compromise structural load-bearing beams within a matter of months.
In almost all cases, no. Homeowners insurance usually considers termite infestations to be a preventable maintenance issue. This is why investing in professional preventative treatment and annual termite inspections is so critical for homeowners.
