Termite Control
Protect your property from the silent destroyers! Our expert termite control service offers comprehensive solutions to detect, eliminate and prevent termite infestations, ensuring the long-term integrity and value of your home or business.
Termite Inspection & Control
Termites eat wood and can cause extensive structural damage to your home or business. Termite colonies work 24 hours a day and often remain undetected until significant damage has already occurred. These pests feed on cellulose-based materials, including wood, books, boxes, furniture, and drywall. Our comprehensive inspection and treatment program can help you identify the threat of termites and take proactive steps to protect your property. We offer specialized treatments for subterranean, drywood, and dampwood termites, ensuring thorough protection against all types of infestations.
Termite Inspections
American City Pest & Termite will send a state-licensed inspector to conduct a comprehensive inspection of your home or business. This inspection covers every area of your home or business which includes: the interior to the exterior, around windows, plumbing, in the attic, basement, and crawl spaces. If any signs of termite infestation or other wood-destroying organisms are found, the inspector will recommend a customized treatment program tailored to your specific needs.
Termite Treatments
Based on the treatment plan we determine to be most effective for your home or building, we offer the following types of treatments:
- Fumigation: This comprehensive method targets drywood termites, ensuring complete eradication from your property. We use sulfuryl fluoride, also known as Vikane, for all our fumigations. Vikane is non-flammable, non-corrosive, and odorless. It quickly penetrates structural materials, effectively eliminating a variety of structural pests, and dissipates rapidly during aeration. For more information about fumigation, please visit www.fumigationfacts.com.
- Spot Treatments: Also known as local treat, this method is the simplest and most direct way to address termite infestations.
- Wood Replacement & Repair: Our licensed crew is trained and experienced in replacing termite-damaged wood.
- Annual Control Service: Protect your most valuable investment with our Annual Control Policy. This service allows you to extend the length of your guarantee for as long as you continue the service. For a nominal yearly fee, you’ll receive an annual inspection and treatment for drywood and subterranean termites. Additionally, if you spot termites at any time during the year, simply call us, and we’ll handle the issue at no additional charge.
How Termite Control Works
Termite control is a comprehensive, multi-step process designed to effectively eliminate and prevent infestations. It starts with a detailed inspection to detect any signs of termite activity and assess the extent of the damage. Based on the findings, we implement targeted treatment methods, such as fumigation and termiticide application. These treatments aim to eradicate existing termites and establish a protective barrier to prevent future infestations, ensuring the long-term safety and integrity of your property.
Inspection
A professional termite control technician will conduct a detailed inspection of the property, looking for signs of termite activity, such as mud tubes, damaged wood, or swarmers. This helps determine the extent of the infestation and the appropriate treatment strategy.
Treatment Plan
Based on the inspection findings, a customized treatment plan is developed. It outlines the most effective methods for termite elimination, which may include fumigation, termiticide application, or a combination of approaches. The plan considers the specific needs of the property and the type of termites present.
Implementation
The termite control team executes the selected treatment methods. This process may include tenting the structure for fumigation, applying termiticides to the soil around the property’s perimeter, and establishing a chemical barrier to prevent future termite entry. These combined efforts will ensure protection and long-term security for your property.
Monitoring & Prevention
After the initial treatment, regular monitoring and follow-up inspections are conducted to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment and to detect any new termite activity. Ongoing maintenance and preventive measures may be recommended to prevent future infestations, such as addressing moisture issues, sealing entry points, and scheduling periodic termite inspections.
