Termite Extermination

Termite control is critical in protecting your home or business structure from the devastating damage these hungry pests can cause. Termites quietly infest your home with little or no evidence that they are present. If you live anywhere in the United States where subterranean or Formosan termites live you should invest in regular termite inspections and act quickly to eliminate any termites that are found.

If termites are found it is important to take action immediately before the insects create extensive damage to your home or building. They can cause significant damage that can cause thousands of dollars in damage and a major inconvenience while the termites are being exterminated.

Termite control is just a matter of laying down a protective layer of safe and effective pesticides around the perimeter of your home to create a barrier the termites cannot penetrate. Termite baiting stations can also be used to be sure that your property is safe from termites.

Regular FOLLOW-UP INSPECTIONS are essential and should be carried out at least every 3 to 6 months where signs of termite activity have been located in the vicinity of susceptible buildings or timber structures. Schedule Your FREE Inspection Today!
