There are some very specific signs of a termite infestation. They include:

Droppings
Termite droppings typically look like tiny, rigid, wood-colored pellets.

Mud Tubes
Termite mud tubes are very distinctive. They are typically on the exterior of the surface and provide protection for termites.

Swarmers
Swarmers are flying termites that are attracted to light and are often found near light fixtures. They have wings that look like slender fish scales and each wing is the same size. Swarmers are usually the first sign of a termite problem.

Hollowed-Out Wood
If wood located on walls — such as baseboards and windowsills — is infested by termites, it will sound hollow when tapped with a tool like a screwdriver. If the wood is extremely damaged, tapping on it may break through and reveal termites eating wood inside.

Termite damage repair can cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Traditional Termite Services
Traditional jobs often require the pest control company to pump hundreds of gallons of chemical into the ground and can take several hours.

Our Termite Services
Our termite treatment and prevention services will eliminate active termites and continue to protect you for years to come. They’re affordable, effective, and green! Learn more about termite protection.

Every home and business is unique. Our professionals are trained to determine whether a termite problem exists — and if one does, they can customize an effective treatment program. If you don’t have a termite problem and want to avoid one, they can also recommend a termite prevention plan.

Traditional termite treatments require many hours of labor, depending on the home or business. This typically includes:

• Graphing the structure

• Trenching or digging around the structure

• Tearing down landscaping elements

• Structural drilling

• Injecting hundreds of gallons of chemical into the ground

• Replacing trenched landscape

We use a smarter, greener way:

• Graphing the structure

• Spot-treating the active termite areas, if any

• Placing Sentricon termite bait stations around the structure

And we're done! Then we continually protect your home or business from any invading termites.

Yes. Our termite extermination and prevention services are totally green!

• We use the Sentricon baiting system and do not pump hundreds of gallons of chemicals into the soil. 
• The system is 100% removable.
• There's no runoff or seepage into the water table. Sentricon is the only product that can be used around wells and cisterns and near bodies of water.
• There’s no risk to beneficial insects, such as bees and butterflies. Sentricon only affects termites through their molting process. They are the only insects that have the mouthparts to eat it.
• The active ingredient is in a secure, tamper-resistant station. It’s safe to use around children and pets.

If you have active termites, we will treat the affected areas.

No. However, termites can squeeze through concrete cracks that are only 1/32 of an inch wide.

The amount of time before you'll see a visible reduction in termite activity will vary widely depending on many factors, including the size of the termite colony, how long it's been established, and the extent of termite incursion into your property. If you don't see results within 30 days, please contact our office to set up a free follow-up service.

No. You can go about your normal activities while we install the Sentricon system.

No, but for our safety, we do ask that any dogs be secured or indoors when we visit.
