TERMITE CONTROL SERVICES
Termites are annoying when they invade our homes or offices because, unlike many other insects, they cause real damage. They are insects that live in colonies and feed on wood, and that combination causes massive damage to our properties. We're talking billions of dollars every year. We hear a lot about termites in Florida because they love our warm, humid climate, and we constantly fight them to keep our homes safe. This battle is why prompt, proactive treatment is so important.
If you have a termite infestation problem, or want to prevent it, contact us and we will gladly resolve your requirements.

Termite inspections are necessary for most real estate transactions, but they are also essential if you suspect your home may be infested with termites. In Florida, homeowners should protect their homes from termites by taking steps to discourage termites from entering their homes or businesses.
Termites can infest the wood in your home before you realize they are there, understanding that termite damage is not covered by homeowners insurance, as insurance companies consider termite damage preventable. Our termite inspection is performed by highly experienced pest control professionals.
Termite spot treatment is a smart way to handle termite infestations. Unlike whole-structure fumigation, termite spot treatment is a localized approach. It focuses on treating specific areas where drywood termites are present, making it highly effective, especially for early-stage infestations.
You might wonder, “When should I opt for termite spot treatment?” The answer lies in early detection. Spot treatment works wonders for small, isolated infestations or as a preventive measure. If you catch the termites early, spot treatment could be your winning strategy!

Soil treatments use liquid termiticides that ensure adequate soil coverage. Injecting this system into the soil creates a treated area that reduces the termite population and envelops the structure in long-term protection. This is the most commonly used system in preventing infestations and can be used in combination with baits and/or wood treatment.
Termites can build tubes to the foundation of your house quite easily (they don't actually need a crack or gap in the concrete). Any soil injection treatment is designed to build a barrier of treated soil around the structure.
Soil termite treatment, simply put, involves creating an underground barrier around the structure that will prevent termites from penetrating.
Along with drywood termites, subterranean termites are among the most common types we have in Florida. Because subterranean termites live in the soil, one of the best steps you can take to protect your home is to treat your foundation. If you are building a new home, this would include treating the soil with a termiticide before pouring the slab. Other steps in this process include spraying the perimeter of the home, treating the wood studs, and applying termiticide to the plumbing and electrical network.
Chances are you already have a home and want to protect it. You can take environmentally friendly preventative measures by removing termite food sources near your home, including mulch and tree stumps. Also, never lean or stack wood against the side of your home.
Treating the soil around your home is another effective way to prevent termites from taking hold. This step will need to be repeated every few years to be effective, but you may find that it is worth the peace of mind. If you want an alternative to soil saturation, you can work with our pest control team to install bait stations around your property.
Avay Pest Control has a preventative treatment that will protect your property for up to 10 years or more against subterranean termites. Taking these precautionary measures will save you time, stress, and money compared to dealing with an existing infestation.

HOW TO PREVENT A TERMITE INFESTATION
Termites can cause severe damage to both the aesthetics and structure of your home or business because their main source of food is wood. Termites can cause structural damage by penetrating plaster and metal siding, subterranean damage which most often is mistaken for water damage, and drywood damage that can go undetected until the infestation grows out of control. And while termites don’t typically present a significant risk of disease, they can spread like an infection through your home or business. The costs associated with getting rid of termites and repairing the damage can greatly increase the longer these pests are allowed to develop their incognito pathways and colonies. To protect your home or business from termites, you need to learn about the behavior of this pest, take steps for prevention, and find effective treatment options should an infestation occur.

TERMITE PROTECTION
Termites are widely regarded as a damaging pest to have in your home or business. Termites (sometimes known as ‘white ants’) can cause extensive damage to the structure of a building if they are not inspected, managed or treated by qualified termite control professionals.
Termites will feed on wood 24 hours-a-day. That means a termite infestation can quickly turn into a major problem. As their presence dates back 120 million years, termites are survivors and extremely difficult to exterminate without professional expertise.
Whether it’s your home or business premises, it’s likely to be your biggest investment in terms of money, sweat and tears, so naturally you want only the best provider for all your termite control needs.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE TERMITES?
Signs of termites include:
- Visible signs of wood damage
- Identification of live or dead termites, nests, mounds, and mud tubes
Termites and wood damage would be expected mainly on the ground and/or basement and other subterranean levels of a building. If you are on a higher level, it may be possible that what you are seeing is not a termite-related issue after all.
If you suspect that you might have termites or are at risk for termites, we can arrange for one of our certified specialists to inspect your premises.
HOW SERIOUS ARE TERMITES?
A termite infestation and damage can be devastating to your home or property. Termites are often called the “silent destroyer” because they may be secretly hiding and thriving in your home or yard without any immediate signs of damage. All termites consume cellulose-based plant materials. Unfortunately, all homes, regardless of their construction type, can provide cellulose food for termite infestation.
