Termite Inspection & Treatment in Waco, TX
Termites eat wood from the inside out and can work for years before anyone notices. The surest way to know is an inspection by a licensed company.
Request pest controlWhy inspections matter
Damage often hides behind drywall, under flooring and inside door frames. A trained inspector knows where to look and what the early signs are.
When to get one
When buying a home, when you see winged insects swarming indoors, if wood sounds hollow or soft, or if it's been years since the last inspection.
Treatment options
Liquid treatments around and under the foundation create a treated zone; bait systems draw termites to stations around the house. Your company will explain which suits your home and soil.
Wood and moisture
Termites like damp wood and wood touching soil. Keep mulch and soil below siding, fix leaks, and store firewood away from the house.
Real estate inspections
Buyers in Texas often get a wood-destroying insect report before closing. Ask for a copy of any past treatment records and warranties from the seller.
Protection plans
Many companies offer annual inspections and a warranty after treatment. Read what's covered: re-treatment, damage repair or both.
Before treatment
The company may need access along the foundation, inside garages and in crawl spaces. Clearing stored items from those areas makes the job faster.
After treatment
Keep the treated zone undisturbed. Tell the company before adding a patio, flower beds or landscaping against the foundation.

- Shop products are not a substitute for professional treatment of an active infestation. Termite work is best left to a licensed company.
- How long does a termite treatment last?
- It depends on the method and product. Ask how long protection is expected to last and what the warranty covers.
