Get Rid of Termites– Fast & Effectively!
Protect Your Home from Costly Termite Damage
Termites can silently destroy the structural integrity of your home, causing thousands of dollars in damage if left untreated. At Downriver Pest Control, we offer comprehensive termite control services to protect your property from these destructive pests. Using the latest in termite detection and treatment technologies, including Sentricon® Bait Stations, we ensure your home stays termite-free year-round.
We conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify the extent of the infestation, entry points, and breeding areas.
Based on our findings, we develop a targeted treatment plan using eco-friendly baiting systems (Sentricon) to eliminate termites and prevent their return.
After the initial treatment, we’ll schedule a follow-up appointment to re-inspect & re-fill bait stations. We also provide tips to prevent future infestations and ensure your home or business stays termite-free.
SIGNS OF TERMITE DAMAGE
Termites build tunnels out of soil, wood, saliva, and feces. They use the tunnels like a subway system to get around safely.
These muddy tunnels will typically be seen around the foundation, anywhere the ground meets your house, and anywhere near a food source (wood)
If there is random bubbling paint on walls and ceilings it could be a sign that termites are eating the wood behind it, especially if accompanied with pinholes (entry points)
Termite droppings, also known as frass or pellets, are often found in small piles near termite nests. The piles resemble sawdust or coffee grounds.
The most common places to find piles of droppings are along wooden floorboards, carpeting, windowsills, and wooden porches.
When you see a pile of termite wings, kind of look like fish scales, that typically means swarmers are in seach of a place to start a new colony. These piles would typically be found near the foundation of your home.
Many termites like to work from the inside out so the damage may not be easy to spot with the naked eye. If walls, floors, furniture, sound hollow when you tap or step, you may have termites.
The outside walls of your home are the easiest to access for termites.
If you are able to see inside the wood and there is a maze like pattern of tunnels, you likely have an infestation.
If the damage is this severe, contact us immediately for an inspection.
