Termites are active in every state except Alaska, but they really thrive in hot, humid climates like that of North Carolina. Causing over five billion dollars in damages to structures throughout the United States every year, termites are a serious problem, best avoided if possible.
Thankfully, Ready Pest Solutions makes it easy to prevent termites with our fully warrantied termite control services. We can eliminate active termite infestations as well as prevent termites from getting into your Holly Springs home in the future.
We begin your service with an extremely thorough inspection of your house to identify any signs of termites. This inspection begins outside as we look around your foundation, exterior doors and windows, and your garage for mud tubes, evidence of galleries, and termite damage. We’ll check your crawl space, foundation walls, and piers. We’ll probe wood gently to make sure there is no hidden damage.
Inside, we’ll inspect the interior perimeter to look for any signs of termites or termite damage. We’ll also inspect interior walls for signs of tunneling and baseboards for signs of disfigurement.
We’ll service our traps monthly from April through October.
Although we provide termite treatments for active infestations and as a preventative treatment, what we find during our inspection will guide our treatment methods. If we find no signs of termite activity in your home, we’ll dig a trench around your home’s exterior perimeter and apply the treatment into the trench before filling it back in. We can also dig and treat a trench around the interior foundation of your house in the crawl space.
If we find termite activity during our inspection, we’ll still do the trench treatments, but we’ll also directly treat the areas with termite activity. We do this by drilling into the walls where there is evidence of termites and applying a treatment into those areas before patching up the holes. We can also drill and treat garage slabs and interior perimeter walls every foot.
If you have an active termite infestation in your house, we will return to your home about 60 days after our initial treatment to reinspect. If we find termites are still active, we will re-treat.
Otherwise, our termite control service includes a one year renewable and transferable warranty.
In addition to our termite control services, Ready Pest Solutions also provides a Wood-Destroying Insect Report service. If you are purchasing a new home, your lender might require this report, but it’s wise to get one even if they don’t. We’ll fully inspect the house for any signs of termite activity or damage, then write up the proper paperwork.
Since most home inspections don’t include looking for wood-destroying insect damage, this extra step provides you with important information as well as peace of mind. You’ll know about any issues before you close on your new house, so you won’t have any unpleasant and costly surprises waiting for you.
If you have any problems with mosquitoes in between our regularly scheduled service visits, we’ll return to your property to provide an additional treatment free of charge. We also offer one time services for special occasions. To learn more about our mosquito control services or to schedule a service, contact us today.
