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

Look for small piles of wood-colored droppings near wooden structures, hollow-sounding wood when tapped, mud tubes along your foundation or basement walls, and discarded wings near windows or doors. You might also notice small holes in wood surfaces or sagging floors and ceilings. However, termites often work hidden inside walls and structures, so professional inspection is the most reliable way to detect them. Many homeowners in Elm don’t realize they have termites until significant damage has already occurred, which is why regular inspections are so important.
Professional termite treatment uses commercial-grade products and application methods that aren’t available to homeowners. We have the equipment to treat soil around your entire foundation and access areas you can’t reach safely. More importantly, we know how to identify the specific termite species and create treatment plans that actually eliminate the entire colony, not just the termites you can see. DIY treatments often provide temporary relief but miss the source of the problem, allowing termites to return and continue causing damage.
Most residential termite treatments take 2-4 hours depending on your property size and the extent of the infestation. You’ll typically see reduced termite activity within the first week, with complete elimination of the colony within 2-4 weeks. Liquid treatments work faster than baiting systems, but both are effective when applied correctly. The key is treating the entire colony, not just the termites you see, which is why it takes time for the treatment to reach all the termites and eliminate them completely.
Yes, when applied by licensed professionals, modern termite treatments are safe for families and pets. We use targeted application methods that focus treatment where termites live and travel, not where your family spends time. Most treatments require you to stay out of treated areas for a few hours while products dry and settle. We’ll give you specific instructions about any precautions to take. The products we use are designed to be highly effective against termites while posing minimal risk to people and pets when used properly.
Termite treatment costs vary based on your property size, the extent of the infestation, and the treatment method needed. Most residential treatments in Elm range from $800 to $2,500, which is significantly less than the $3,000 to $8,000 average cost of repairing termite damage. We provide detailed estimates after inspecting your property so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Consider that termite treatment is an investment in protecting your home’s value and preventing much more expensive structural repairs down the road.
Yes, ongoing prevention is important because New Jersey’s climate and soil conditions remain favorable for termites year-round. Most homeowners benefit from annual inspections and periodic treatment renewal, especially if you live in an area with high termite activity like Elm. We’ll recommend a monitoring schedule based on your specific situation and risk factors. Preventive treatments and inspections cost much less than dealing with new infestations and give you peace of mind that your home stays protected.
