Termite Control Services
After being in the business for many years, we as a team have noticed there are many myths, exaggerations, and half-truths floating around about termites. We want to provide the average homeowner with practical takeaways and answers to all the common (and not-so-common) questions.
In the vast majority of cases, new homes receive a termite treatment during construction that lasts anywhere from 6 months to 5 years, depending on application procedures, product quality, and environmental factors. For dry wood termite control, tenting and fumigating a structure is the most common treatment.
Although damage is caused by all, termites actually consume the wood they destroy. Termites and Carpenter ants are the biggest concerns to homeowners. All wood-destroying insects have the potential to cause structural damage, but most often their damage is merely cosmetic.

Three Main Species Threaten Residential Structures in the US:
Found in every state except Alaska. Subterranean termites are difficult to control considering they live beneath the soil. Subterranean termites can nest 20 feet below the ground with a foraging radius of 150 feet. An average-sized eastern subterranean colony contains about 300,000 workers. Laboratory studies suggest that a colony of this size can consume 1 foot of a 2×4 board in 16 days.
The Formosan termite is a type of subterranean termite that deserves its own attention. Formosan termites can cause major structural damage to a home in six months, and almost complete destruction within two years. Found in Hawaii and the Southeast, field colonies commonly extend into the millions, with a foraging radius over 300 feet. When compared to other termite species, Formosan termites generally cause more structural damage in a shorter period of time. These Formosan Termites are commonly referred to as a “Super Termite” because they are the most aggressive and potentially destructive termite species in the United States *A medium-sized colony of 3 million Formosan termites could eat one foot of a 2×4 board in only two days.
Primarily occurring in southeastern coastal states and up the coast of California. With very small colonies of up to 2500 termites, Drywood termites do not require contact with the soil for survival and do not require the same amount of moisture as do subterranean termites. External signs of damage are elusive with drywood termites. Often, the only obvious signs of infestation are little mounds of fecal pellets building up underneath the infested wood or the appearance of tiny “kick-out” holes in the surface of the wood. *Drywood termites used to be called “Furniture Termites” because colonies were often found in pieces of furniture. The concern for homeowners is structural damage that can occur after Drywood termites fly into the attic or second floor after swarming.
