Termites are silent destroyers capable of causing thousands of dollars in damage before being detected.

The Hidden Threat Beneath Your Home

Houston’s humid climate provides ideal conditions for subterranean and drywood termites. These pests feed on cellulose — the material found in wood and paper — and can compromise framing, floors, and foundations. Our licensed technicians identify the signs early, stop active infestations, and implement long-term barriers for lasting peace of mind.

Common Termite Species in Texas

The most destructive type; live underground and enter through cracks or moisture-rich soil.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do termites differ from ants?

Termites have straight antennae and equal-length wings, while ants have bent antennae and smaller back wings. Our team can quickly confirm which pest you’re dealing with during inspection.

Are your termite treatments safe for pets and family?

Yes. We use EPA-approved, low-toxicity products that are safe when applied correctly.

How often should I schedule a termite inspection?

We recommend at least once a year for Houston-area homes, especially older properties or those with previous termite issues.
