Your Trusted Partner for Termite & Pest Control Solutions
Andys Termite was founded in 1978 by Andy and Laurie Santonello with a commitment to honesty and quality workmanship. Our company was established to address the lack of reliable service in the pest control industry, and we've maintained these core values for over four decades. In 1985, we expanded our capabilities by creating an in-house fumigation department to better serve our clients' needs. We specialize in residential and commercial fumigation, termite inspections, and pest control for structures including homes, churches, schools, and municipal buildings. Our team prioritizes customer education to help clients make informed decisions about protecting their properties from wood-destroying pests.With decades of experience, we've built a reputation for integrity and excellence that sets us apart in the industry. Our services extend to large multi-unit complexes and specialized structures like boats, ensuring comprehensive protection solutions. We maintain transparency in our operations and stand by our work, offering reliable service that meets both residential and commercial requirements. Our long-standing relationships with real estate professionals and property managers demonstrate our consistent delivery of trustworthy, high-quality results. Today, we continue to serve the South Bay Los Angeles County area with the same dedication to excellence that defined our founding principles.

Services
Residential Fumigation
Our residential fumigation service protects homes from wood-destroying pests using proven methods developed over 40 years of industry experience. We specialize in eliminating drywood termites and other pests through comprehensive treatment processes that safeguard your property's structural integrity while maintaining safety standards for occupants.
Commercial Fumigation
Commercial fumigation solutions protect businesses, schools, and municipal buildings from pest infestations. Our expert team handles large-scale treatments for structures including churches, commercial complexes, and boats. We implement targeted strategies that minimize operational disruption while ensuring complete pest eradication through our in-house fumigation department established in 1985.
Termite Inspection
Professional termite inspections identify wood-destroying organisms and potential infestation risks. Our certified inspectors examine structural components for drywood termites, subterranean termites, and wood-destroying fungi. We provide detailed reports following state-mandated formats, including recommendations for treatment and prevention measures based on California's Structural Pest Control Act requirements.
Spot Treatment
Spot treatment services address localized pest infestations without requiring full-structure fumigation. Our technicians identify specific problem areas and apply precise treatments to eliminate active colonies. This cost-effective solution works best for contained infestations where structural access allows direct treatment of affected wood components.
Large Unit Complexes
Specialized pest control for apartment complexes and multi-unit buildings. Our team manages large-scale treatments across multiple units simultaneously, maintaining consistent protection standards throughout the property. We coordinate with property managers to minimize resident disruption while implementing comprehensive solutions for wood-destroying pests in shared structural environments.
