Comprehensive Termite Inspection & Treatment

Our process begins with a detailed termite inspection to assess the severity of the infestation and identify the affected areas. Using cutting-edge tools and industry-leading techniques, our technicians pinpoint termite activity and recommend a tailored treatment plan.

Our termite control solutions include:

  • Liquid Barrier Treatments – Creating a protective shield around your property to eliminate termites before they cause damage.
  • Baiting Systems – Strategically placed bait stations that attract and eliminate termite colonies.
  • Preventative Treatments – Protecting your home from future invasions with long-term solutions.

Our Termite Treatment Process

The termite control process from Armed Force Pest Control manages two primary species — subterranean and drywood termites.

The first stage of the process always involves a physical inspection, carefully checking around the home's walls, baseboards, and crawl spaces. A fully functional report will be provided at the end of the assessment, detailing any termite activity or potential harborage zones. If you are interested in moving forward with solutions and possible treatments, our team will present a custom termite control program for your approval. Once signed off, we will implement prevention, treatment, and monitoring solutions in areas all over the property.

Apart from our regular WDO inspections and termite control solutions in Santa Rosa, Armed Force Pest Control also offers the following services:

How Can I Tell If I Have a Termite Infestation?

Many homeowners are unaware of a termite problem until significant damage has occurred. Some key signs of a termite infestation include:

  • Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
  • Mud tubes along walls or foundation
  • Discarded wings near windows and doors
  • Small holes or frass (termite droppings) around wooden structures

If you notice any of these warning signs, contact Armed Force Pest Control immediately for a professional inspection.

How to Prevent Termites?

Preventing termites involves a combination of proactive steps to reduce the likelihood of an infestation. Here are some effective strategies to help protect your home:

  • Eliminate Moisture: Repair leaks and ensure proper drainage to reduce moisture around the home.
  • Seal Entry Points: Close cracks, gaps, and holes in the foundation, doors, and windows.
  • Create Barriers: Use physical barriers like sand or steel mesh around the foundation.
  • Remove Wood Debris: Keep firewood, lumber, and tree stumps away from the house.
  • Regular Inspections: Schedule annual termite inspections and watch for signs like mud tubes or damaged wood.
  • Use Termite Treatments: Apply soil treatments or bait stations around the home.
  • Maintain Landscaping: Keep mulch and plants away from the foundation to avoid attracting termites.
  • Consider a Termite Warranty: Professional pest control companies may offer termite protection plans.

By taking these preventive steps, you can greatly reduce the chances of a termite infestation and protect your home from costly damage.

    Suggestions For Wood Eating Insect Prevention

    Keeping wood-eating insects like termites out of the house isn't always possible. For this reason, it's best to apply regular prevention both inside and outside the property.

    Below are three of the best methods of termite prevention in Santa Rosa.

    1. Keep Mold and Mildew Under Control. Reduce household moisture with a set of desiccant bags, dehumidifiers, or even pipe repairs. For solutions you cannot implement on your own, consider partnering with a local handyman.
    2. Treat Around Doors and Windows. Termites may come indoors from the front door, back door, or windows. Prevent this from happening by regularly caulking, sealing, and weatherproofing any gaps.
    3. Replace Mulch With Gravel Or Stones. Termites feed on the substrate around your home, including wood, mulch, and landscaping chips. By replacing your landscaping substrate with rock or stone, you can dissuade hungry termites from ever approaching the lawn.

    Never leave your home up to chance again. Contact Armed Force Pest Control to manage termite colonies at any stage of development.

    What are the Signs of a Termite Infestation?

    Signs of a termite infestation include:

    • Visible Mud Tubes: Termites build mud tubes to travel between their colony and food source, often found along walls or foundations.
    • Wood Damage: Hollowed or damaged wood, especially in structural areas like beams or joists, indicates termite activity.
    • Discarded Wings: After swarming, termites shed their wings, leaving them scattered around windowsills or light fixtures.
    • Frass: Termite droppings, resembling sawdust or small pellets, can accumulate near infested areas.
    • Sagging Floors or Ceilings: As termites consume wood, it weakens the structure, leading to sagging floors or ceilings.
    • Hollow Sounds: Tap on wood surfaces—if they sound hollow, termites may have eaten away the inside.
    • Tight-Fitting Doors or Windows: Swollen or difficult-to-open doors and windows could indicate termite damage to surrounding wood.

    If you notice any of these signs, it's crucial to address the infestation promptly to prevent further damage.
