Frequently Asked Questions
How are termites treated?
Termites are treated using liquid termiticide barriers, bait station systems, or fumigation tenting, applied by EPA-registered technicians. We create chemical zones around your foundation that eliminate colonies on contact while monitoring stations target the queen and the wider colony.
What are signs of a termite swarm?
Signs of a termite swarm include discarded wings near windows/doors, mud tubes on walls, and flying insects around light sources during spring months (March-May in Atlanta). Swarms indicate an established colony is reproducing nearby, requiring immediate professional inspection.
How big are termites?
Termites are typically 1/4 to 1/2 inch long, with workers being smallest and reproductive swarmers having wings that extend beyond their bodies. They’re often mistaken for flying ants but have straight antennae and uniform body width.
What does termite damage look like?
Termite damage appears as hollow-sounding wood, blistered paint, sagging floors, and visible maze-like patterns in walls or furniture. You may also notice small holes, crumbling drywall, or buckling wooden structures where termites have consumed the interior cellulose.
How do termites get into your house?
Yes, professional termite treatments can completely eliminate existing colonies using targeted termiticides and bait systems that destroy the queen.
Can you get rid of termites completely?
Termites enter homes through cracks in foundations, wood-to-ground contact, gaps around pipes, and mud tubes they build across concrete. They’re attracted to moisture, wood debris, and cellulose materials, traveling up to 150 feet from their underground colonies.
Where do termites live?
Termites live in underground colonies near moisture sources, inside wooden structures, or in above-ground nests depending on species. Subterranean termites build colonies 4-18 inches below ground, traveling through mud tubes to access food sources.
How long can termites go without food?
It depends on the pest and the size of the infestation. Your technician will explain what to expect after the inspection.
How do exterminators get rid of termites?
Exterminators get rid of termites by applying liquid termiticide barriers around foundations, installing bait monitoring stations, or using fumigation for severe infestations. Our EPA-registered technicians use non-repellent chemicals that termites carry back to colonies, eliminating the queen and entire population.
How can you prevent termites?
Prevent termites by eliminating moisture sources, removing wood-to-ground contact, sealing foundation cracks, and maintaining an 18-inch clearance between mulch and your home. Annual professional inspections and liquid barrier treatments provide the most reliable long-term prevention.
Do DIY termite treatments work?
DIY termite treatments rarely work for active infestations because they don’t reach underground colonies or eliminate the queen. Store-bought sprays only kill surface termites, while professional treatments use EPA-registered termiticides that spread through the colony.
Are termites covered by home insurance?
No, termites are not covered by standard home insurance policies because they’re considered preventable maintenance issues. However, structural damage from covered perils (like fallen trees) may be covered. Always maintain professional termite protection to avoid costly out-of-pocket repairs.
What do termites look like?
Termites look like small, pale-colored insects with straight antennae, soft bodies, and no pinched waist (unlike ants). Workers are creamy-white, soldiers have large brown heads, and reproductive swarmers are dark with four equal-length wings.
How to prepare for termite treatment?
To prepare for termite treatment, clear 3 feet around your home’s perimeter, remove stored items from crawl spaces, trim vegetation touching the house, and ensure access to all treatment areas. Our technicians provide a detailed preparation checklist during your inspection.
Do termite bait traps work?
Yes, professional termite bait traps work effectively by using slow-acting toxins that worker termites carry back to the colony, eliminating the queen and entire population. However, DIY bait stations are less effective than professional monitoring systems with proven active ingredients and strategic placement.
How long does termite treatment last?
It depends on the pest and the size of the infestation. Your technician will explain what to expect after the inspection.
Can termites come back after treatment?
Yes, termites can return after treatment if barriers break down, new colonies form nearby, or conditions attract them again.
What attracts termites to a house?
Termites are attracted to moisture, wood-to-soil contact, cellulose materials, warmth, and dark enclosed spaces like crawl spaces and basements. Leaky pipes, poor drainage, firewood piles, and mulch near foundations create ideal conditions for colony establishment.
Mud tubes and damaged wood can also indicate carpenter ants. Compare them in the Atlanta pest library.
