Termite Inspection Process Atco

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire property – not just the basement. We check crawl spaces, foundation walls, wooden structures, and anywhere wood meets soil. You’ll know within the first visit if you have active termites, old damage, or conditions that attract future problems.

If we find active termites, we explain exactly what species you’re dealing with and map out the treatment plan. Most Atco homes have subterranean termites, which require specific baiting or liquid barrier treatments.

Treatment typically involves applying termiticide to create protective barriers around your foundation and treating any active colonies directly. We schedule follow-up visits to monitor bait stations and ensure complete elimination. You’ll get detailed reports after each visit so you know exactly what’s happening with your property.

Complete Termite Prevention Atco

What's Included in Your Treatment

Your termite treatment includes a thorough property inspection, species identification, and customized treatment plan based on your specific infestation. We use both liquid termiticides and baiting systems depending on what works best for your property layout.

You’ll receive detailed documentation of all findings, including photos of damage or activity areas. We explain the difference between old damage and active infestations so you understand exactly what you’re dealing with.

Follow-up monitoring is included to ensure treatment effectiveness. We also provide recommendations for moisture control and structural modifications that reduce future termite attraction. Many Atco homes have specific vulnerabilities due to older construction methods, and we’ll identify these risk factors during our inspection.

How do I know if I have termites in my Atco home?

Look for winged insects (swarmers) around windows and doors in spring, especially after rain. You might also notice mud tubes along foundation walls, hollow-sounding wood when tapped, or small piles of what looks like sawdust near wooden structures. In Atco’s older homes, check areas where wood touches soil or where moisture collects. Many homeowners first notice termites during spring swarming season when winged reproductives emerge from mature colonies. If you see any of these signs, get a professional inspection quickly – early detection saves thousands in repair costs.
Liquid termiticides create chemical barriers in soil around your foundation that kill termites on contact and repel new colonies. Baiting systems use slow-acting toxins that termites carry back to eliminate entire colonies including the queen. Most effective treatments combine both methods. Liquid barriers work faster for active infestations, while baits provide long-term colony elimination. Your property layout, soil type, and infestation severity determine the best approach. We avoid fumigation for termites since it’s unnecessary and extremely disruptive – that’s mainly for drywood termites, which are rare in New Jersey.
Liquid termiticide treatments start working immediately, creating protective barriers that kill termites within hours of contact. However, complete colony elimination takes 3-6 months since termites don’t all encounter treated areas simultaneously. Baiting systems work slower but more thoroughly, typically requiring 6-12 months for complete colony elimination. You’ll see reduced activity within the first month, but patience is important for long-term success. We schedule follow-up inspections every 3 months during the first year to monitor progress and ensure treatment effectiveness. Most homeowners notice significant improvement within 60 days.
Modern termiticides are specifically designed to target insects while remaining safe for mammals when applied correctly. We use products approved by the EPA for residential use around families and pets. Liquid treatments are applied directly to soil, not living spaces, and baiting systems use enclosed stations that prevent accidental contact. During application, we may ask you to keep pets and children away from treated areas until products dry, usually 2-4 hours. Most treatments occur outside your home’s living spaces. We always explain safety precautions specific to your treatment plan and answer any concerns about product safety.
Treatment costs depend on your home’s size, infestation severity, and chosen treatment method. Most Atco homes require $800-2,500 for comprehensive treatment including initial application and first year monitoring. Liquid barrier treatments typically cost less upfront, while baiting systems have higher initial costs but include longer monitoring periods. We provide detailed written estimates after inspection so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Compared to structural repair costs from untreated termite damage, professional treatment is always the more economical choice. We never use high-pressure sales tactics or demand immediate decisions.
Yes, we provide warranties on our termite treatments with specific terms based on the treatment method used. Liquid barrier treatments typically include 1-year warranties with optional annual renewals. Baiting systems often include longer warranty periods since they provide ongoing colony monitoring. Warranties cover retreatment if termites return to treated areas, not damage from new infestations in untreated areas. We clearly explain warranty terms before treatment begins, including any maintenance requirements like keeping bait stations accessible. Regular monitoring visits help ensure warranty coverage remains valid and catch any new termite activity early.
