The best way to treat termites depends on the specific type of termites infesting the property (such as drywood, dampwood, or subterranean termites), the severity of the infestation, and other factors.
Our termite bait station systems are designed to align with termites' natural foraging behavior. When termites encounter the bait, they consume it and share it with rest of the colony, helping to reduce termite populations over time.
Liquid termite treatment starts with digging an trench around the house, and the termiticide is applied along that foundation. When termites come into contact with the liquid treatment, they can spread it to other termites they interact with as they return to the colony.
Formosan termites are one of the most aggressive and destructive termite species. Known for their relentless feeding habits, they can cause significant structural damage in a relatively short amount of time. Due to the severity of their activity, controlling Formosan termites may require a dual approach that combines both termite baiting systems and liquid treatments for effective results.
Fumigation may be a necessary treatment option when dealing with drywood termites. This process ensures complete eradication by using a controlled fumigant gas that reaches hidden areas where drywood termites reside.
Protecting your home from drywood termites is crucial, especially in California, Florida, and Hawaii where they pose a significant threat. These sneaky pests nest within the wood they infest and do not require connection to soil, making detecting and eliminating them challenging.
That's why we offer a comprehensive solution through our Drywood Defend System™. Our proactive approach help fortify your property against the threat of drywood termites.

We have had Terminix since 2001. They treated twice for termites and we do annual inspections and maintain service for the “insurance” that they will repair damage caused by termites. Our home was built on a former grape vineyard and termites seem to love any grape vines left in the soil in our city! Termites are common here…

Not only will we eliminate termites and prevent their return, but we'll also repair any new termite damage—up to $250,000—as long as you maintain your plan. With Terminix, you're protected from both termites and costly repairs, giving you total confidence in your home's defense.2
A termite inspection is recommended in several situations. It's often required when buying or selling a home, as lenders and insurance companies may request proof of a recent inspection. Even if you're not in the process of buying or selling, it's a good decision to get an inspection if you notice signs of termites, such as mud tubes, hollow-sounding wood, or frass. Regular inspections—typically once a year—can help catch an infestation early before it causes significant damage.
The cost of termite treatment depends on factors like infestation severity, termite type, and whether you need treatment, prevention, or ongoing protection. At Terminix, we offer flexible payment options to help make termite protection more affordable. You can choose monthly or annual payment plans, and for larger treatments, financing options may be available to fit your budget. Our expert termite exterminators customize solutions to fit your home and budget.
While DIY termite treatments are available, they are generally not effective. Termites are persistent and can be challenging to eliminate without professional help. A professional termite exterminator can assess the extent of the infestation and provide a more thorough and long-lasting solution.
Termites can cause significant damage to your home before you even notice their presence. Taking proactive steps to prevent infestations and recognizing the early warning signs can help minimize costly repairs. Here are a few basic preventive measures and early detection tips:
