Termite Inspections
Our comprehensive termite inspections identify drywood and subterranean termite activity through visual assessment and specialized tools. We examine structural components, soil conditions, and potential entry points to determine infestation extent. Customers receive detailed reports with treatment recommendations and preventative measures.
Fumigation Services
Professional fumigation using Vikane gas eliminates entire termite colonies by penetrating all structural materials. The process involves tenting the property and controlled gas application by licensed technicians. This method requires 2-3 day occupancy vacating but ensures complete pest eradication without residual effects.
Spot Treatments
Targeted termite treatments address specific infestation areas without full-structure fumigation. Our technicians apply chemical barriers and direct treatments to affected wood components. This cost-effective solution works best for accessible, contained infestations identified during initial inspections.
Preventative Measures
We implement proactive strategies to protect properties from future infestations. Services include perimeter soil treatments, structural modifications, and customer education on termite risk reduction. Our preventative programs focus on eliminating moisture sources and creating physical/chemical barriers against termite entry.
Structural Evaluations
Detailed structural evaluations identify termite damage extent and structural integrity concerns. Our licensed inspectors assess wood components, foundation vulnerabilities, and previous treatment effectiveness. Evaluation results guide repair recommendations and long-term maintenance planning for property owners.
Questions
What are common signs of termite infestation?
Look for mud tubes on walls, discarded termite wings, small holes in wood with sawdust piles, and hollow-sounding wood. Early detection prevents extensive damage.
How does termite fumigation work?
We cover the structure with tarps, introduce Vikane gas to penetrate all wood components, and maintain gas levels for complete colony elimination. The process takes 2-3 days including preparation and aeration.
What termite treatment options exist?
Options include whole-structure fumigation for severe infestations, localized spot treatments for contained issues, and preventative chemical barriers. Our experts recommend solutions based on inspection findings.
How can I prepare for termite inspection?
Ensure clear access to all property areas, especially foundation walls and crawl spaces. Have previous pest control records available for reference during the assessment.
Are your treatments safe for families and pets?
Yes, when properly applied by licensed professionals. Fumigation requires temporary evacuation, but treatments use EPA-registered materials that pose no long-term risks when label instructions are followed.
