How do I get rid of termites?

Termites can cause damage that’s expensive to repair and in severe infestations, threaten the structural integrity of your home or business. Contacting a professional pest control company is crucial. In West Florida, invasive and aggressive Formosan and Asian subterranean termites are on the rise, causing serious damage in half the time native subterranean and drywood termites do. Drywood termites live inside the wood they infest and can be eliminated using tent fumigation techniques, as well as no-tent direct injection treatments. Formosan and Asian subterranean termites live in nests beneath the soil around your property. The most effective and permanent solution to getting rid of subterranean termites is the Sentricon® Colony Elimination System with Always Active™. Pestwise’ Sentricon specialists are trained and authorized to install this non-intrusive baiting system outside your home or business. Properly stocked with the appropriate bait, these stations continue to keep termites away from your property for many years. If you suspect there is termite activity, immediately contact a trusted, reliable pest control company, such as Pestwise to perform a free termite inspection.
