How We Eliminate Your Termite Problem

First, we conduct a comprehensive inspection of your property. This means checking all the areas termites typically target – foundation areas, crawl spaces, wooden structures, and moisture-prone zones around your home.

Next, we identify the specific termite species and extent of infestation. Different termites require different approaches, and we tailor the treatment accordingly rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

Treatment involves targeted elimination of existing colonies and protective barriers to prevent future infestations. We explain exactly what we’re doing and why, so you understand how your home is being protected.

How do I know if I have a termite infestation in my home?

Common signs include small piles of wood-colored droppings, hollow-sounding wood when tapped, discarded wings near windows or doors, and mud tubes along your foundation. You might also notice small holes in wood surfaces or sagging floors and ceilings. However, termites often work hidden for months before visible damage appears, which is why professional inspection is crucial. Many Charleston East homeowners discover infestations during routine inspections that would have gone unnoticed otherwise.
Subterranean termites live in soil and build mud tubes to access wood in your home. They need moisture and typically attack wood that’s in contact with soil or has moisture problems. Drywood termites live directly in wood and don’t need soil contact – they can infest attics, furniture, and structural wood throughout your home. New Jersey homes often deal with both types, and each requires different treatment approaches. Subterranean termites are more common here, but drywood termites cause significant damage when they establish colonies.
Initial treatment typically takes 4-6 hours depending on your home’s size and infestation extent. You’ll start seeing dead termites within 24-48 hours, but complete colony elimination takes 2-4 weeks since worker termites need to carry treatment back to the colony. The process isn’t instant, but it’s thorough. We schedule follow-up inspections to confirm elimination and monitor for any remaining activity. Most homeowners see complete resolution within 30 days of initial treatment.
Modern termite treatments are designed to target termites specifically while being safe for humans and pets when applied correctly. We use EPA-approved products and follow strict application protocols. Most treatments require you to stay out of treated areas for a few hours while products settle, but there’s no extended evacuation needed. We explain all safety precautions before treatment and provide specific guidelines for your situation. The bigger risk is leaving termites untreated – they cause far more harm to your home than proper treatment poses to your family.
Treatment costs depend on your home’s size, infestation extent, and termite species involved. Most residential treatments range from $800-$2,500, with larger homes or severe infestations requiring more extensive work. We provide detailed estimates after inspection so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Consider that termite damage repairs often cost $3,000-$8,000 or more, making professional treatment a smart investment. We’re transparent about pricing and explain why specific treatments are necessary for your situation.
Yes, ongoing prevention is essential in New Jersey’s climate. Termites are persistent, and your home remains attractive to new colonies even after successful treatment. Annual inspections catch new activity before it becomes expensive damage. Many homeowners opt for monitoring systems that provide continuous protection. We recommend at least yearly professional inspections, plus simple steps like managing moisture around your foundation and keeping wood debris away from your home. Prevention costs far less than dealing with new infestations.
