Termite Pest Control Services
Termite Pest Control Services
Termite pest control services are specialized services aimed
at preventing managing and eradicating termite infestations in residential
commercial and industrial properties. Here’s an overview of what these
services typically involve:
Inspection
- Initial Assessment: A thorough inspection of
the property to identify signs of termite activity such as mud tubes
damaged wood or frass (termite droppings).
- Types of Termites: Identifying the species of
termites (subterranean drywood or dampwood) to tailor the treatment plan
accordingly.
Treatment Options
- Liquid Termiticides: Application of chemical
barriers in the soil around and beneath the structure to kill termites on
contact and prevent future infestations.
- Bait Systems: Installation of bait
stations around the property that attract termites. The bait contains a
slow-acting toxin that termites carry back to their colony eventually
eliminating it.
- Foam Treatments: Injecting foam
termiticides directly into walls voids or other hard-to-reach areas to
eradicate termites.
- Wood Treatments: Applying borate solutions
to wood during construction or as a remedial treatment to protect wood
from termite damage.
