Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we inspect your property thoroughly—not just the obvious spots, but the areas where termites actually hide. We check your foundation, crawl spaces, basement, and anywhere moisture meets wood. You’ll know exactly what we find and what it means for your home.

If we find termite activity, we create a treatment plan that eliminates the entire colony, not just the termites you can see. We use targeted treatments that get to the source of the problem while keeping your family and pets safe.

After treatment, we don’t just disappear. We monitor your property to make sure the termites are gone and stay gone. You’ll get regular check-ins and the peace of mind that comes with knowing professionals are watching out for your investment.

Signs Termite Infestation Kirkwood

What You Get With Our Service

You get a complete termite inspection that covers every area where these pests might be hiding. We’re looking for the early warning signs that most homeowners miss—mud tubes along your foundation, hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings near windows and doors.

Our treatment targets the specific termite species common to Kirkwood and Camden County. Subterranean termites behave differently than other species, and they require treatments designed specifically for how they build colonies and access your home.

You also get ongoing monitoring because termite prevention isn’t a one-time event. We’ll check your property regularly to catch any new activity before it becomes a problem. That’s how you protect your investment long-term, not just solve today’s issue.

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

Look for mud tubes along your foundation—these are highways termites build to travel from soil to wood. You might also notice hollow-sounding wood when you tap it, small piles of what looks like sawdust, or discarded wings near windows and doors during spring. Many Kirkwood homeowners also report seeing small holes in drywall or paint that seems to bubble for no reason. The tricky part is that termites do most of their damage where you can’t see it, so a professional inspection catches problems before they become expensive repairs.
Most treatments start working within days, but complete colony elimination typically takes 2-3 months. Termites carry the treatment back to their colony, which eliminates the entire population including the queen. You might still see some termite activity for the first few weeks—this is actually a good sign that the treatment is working. We’ll monitor your property during this period to make sure the colony is being eliminated completely. The key is patience; rushing the process with stronger chemicals often means missing parts of the colony that can rebuild later.
Yes, when applied correctly by licensed professionals. We use targeted treatments that focus on areas where termites travel, not where your family spends time. Most treatments are applied outside your home or in specific areas like basements and crawl spaces. You don’t need to leave your home during treatment, and normal activities can resume immediately. We’ll explain exactly what products we’re using and any precautions you should take, but modern termite treatments are designed to be effective against termites while posing minimal risk to humans and pets.
Treatment costs depend on your home’s size, the extent of the infestation, and the treatment method needed. Most Kirkwood homeowners pay between $1,200-$3,000 for complete treatment, which is significantly less than the $8,000-$15,000 average cost of termite damage repairs. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees after our inspection. Many homeowners find that the cost of treatment is covered partially by homeowner’s insurance, and it’s always less expensive than dealing with structural damage later. We’ll give you a clear estimate before any work begins.
Annual inspections are recommended for most Kirkwood homes, but homes with previous termite activity or those in high-risk areas should be inspected twice yearly. New Jersey’s humid climate and soil conditions make termite activity possible year-round, though spring and fall are peak seasons. If you’re buying or selling a home, you’ll need a current inspection for the transaction. Regular inspections catch problems early when treatment is less expensive and less disruptive. Think of it like an annual physical—prevention is always easier than treatment.
DIY treatments might kill the termites you can see, but they rarely eliminate the entire colony. Termites live underground and inside your walls, so effective treatment requires getting to areas homeowners can’t easily access. Professional treatments are designed to eliminate entire colonies, including the queen, which prevents the problem from returning. We also have access to more effective products and the experience to identify exactly which species you’re dealing with. Most importantly, we guarantee our work—if termites return, we’ll retreat at no charge. DIY treatments often end up costing more when they don’t work completely.
