Frequently Asked Questions
What are signs of termite damage?
You may see long grooves in the wood, or the wood may sound hollow when you knock on it. If your floorboards are suddenly squeaky this may be a sign of damage. If you see mud tubes on the side of your foundation, you should have an inspection done.
Can I wait a few weeks to schedule an inspection if I think I have termites?
The longer you wait to schedule an inspection, the more damage can be done to your home during that time. It is important to act quickly so that you do not have to pay more on repairs. Treating termites and stopping the damage is better than waiting.
Are the treatments safe for my pets?
The treatments are applied to the exterior of your home. Once they are dry, they are safe for your pets, and other wildlife in the area. We use Termidor SC, which is the safest product on the market.
What happens during an inspection?
