Targeted Termite Spot Treatment: A Fast & Effective Solution

Yes. Localized treatment is the standard treatment for subterranean termites. Unlike drywood termites, subterranean termites live in the soil and travel into structures through mud tubes, so fumigation is not effective against them. Depending on the infestation, we may recommend a localized treatment, a perimeter soil treatment, or a combination of both to eliminate the colony and protect your home.

Localized treatment is highly effective when drywood termite activity is limited to one or two accessible areas. Because the inspection is visual only, it treats only the areas where termite activity is found and cannot address hidden infestations that are not visible at the time of the inspection. The treatments include a 1-year warranty, limited to the specific area(s) that were treated. If widespread or inaccessible termite activity is suspected, fumigation may be the more appropriate solution.

Most localized treatments are completed in a single visit, typically a few hours, depending on how many areas need treatment and how accessible they are.

No. In most cases, you can remain in your home during a localized treatment because only specific areas are treated rather than the entire structure. However, you will need to stay out of the treated area for a few hours after the application, as instructed by your technician.

Cost depends entirely on the extent and location of the infestation found during inspection, so we don't estimate it sight-unseen. Once we've inspected your property, you'll get a clear, written treatment estimate before any work begins.

It's the right call when an inspection confirms termite activity is confined to one or a few accessible locations, rather than spread throughout the structure. It causes far less disruption than fumigation, since there's no need to vacate the home or bag up food.

Localized treatment targets termite activity in a specific, identified area — like a single beam, sill plate, or section of subflooring — using injected or applied treatments directly where the infestation is, without tenting the whole structure.

Our technician will call or text ahead, walk the property with you if you're home, and explain findings and next steps in plain language before leaving you with a written report. There's no pressure to decide on treatment on the spot — you'll have the information you need to make the right call for your home.

Warranties typically exclude new damage caused by structural changes made after treatment, conditions an inspector couldn't access, and situations where required follow-up inspections were skipped. Specific terms are spelled out in writing with every warranty we issue.

Yes. Our warranties stay with the property, not the homeowner, so they can be transferred to the new owner when the home is sold. A transferable termite warranty can be a valuable selling point, giving buyers added confidence that the home remains protected.

Our fumigation treatments come with a 5-year warranty against drywood termites, so if the same type of infestation returns to the treated structure within that period, we'll address it under the warranty terms provided in writing at the time of treatment.

It depends on the treatment type and the extent of the infestation. Fumigation pricing is based on your home's cubic footage (call with your address for a ballpark), while localized treatment pricing depends entirely on what's found during inspection — we don't estimate it sight-unseen.
