When our technician arrives, they will first review the graph of the property and verify all treatment specifications. After taking a careful inventory of critical areas such as sunken areas, bathrooms, plumbing access into the structure, existing termite activity and other areas we know require special attention, our technician will begin the treatment process. Each structure is unique and each treatment is customized to the individual building, but treatments can include a combination of the following areas and methodologies.

Trench around the exterior foundation. This protects the outside foundation of your home from ongoing termite activity. The majority of subterranean activity in homes starts on the exterior foundation. A thorough treatment of this key area on a structure can ensure that termites do not continue their feeding on your home.

Foaming of interior wall voids. This may include areas, which are seeing ongoing activity, plumbing accesses, around air returns and other areas. This prevents the termites from being able to enter the structure, or stops them from continuing their activity inside your home. When properly done, foaming is among the least invasive and most effective tools in a professionals arsenal.

Drilling abutting patios or sidewalks. There are circumstances when abutting patios or sidewalks need to be drilled. This allows our technician to place products in areas where concrete prevents other treatment strategies.

Trenching around interior crawl space foundation and piers/posts. In homes with crawl spaces, a trench is dug around the foundation and pier and/or posts.

Drywood Termites

Because these termites spend their lives inside of the wood upon which they feed, different techniques are used to control them.

Depending on the location of the activity and the extent of their involvement in the structure, our tools for dealing with Drywood Termites are: Foaming of interior wall voids, Specially designed Microwave devices, Electronic devices, and lastly Fumigation.
