2. What can termites do to your home?

2.1 How to save your home and budget from being eaten full of holes?

Termites feed on wood. They eat fallen logs and stumps off the forest floor in their natural state. However, on properties, they can eat away the equity you have built up for your establishment and home. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), termites infest millions of homes nationwide, causing billions of dollars in damage annually. Save your home and money by calling Unlimited Pest.

3. How do termites get in?

Termites need moisture and have a low tolerance to light and air. They live underground, attacking homes from below. They only need a small space around a drainpipe, loose mortar joint, or settlement crack in the basement to enter your building.

4. How can Unlimited Pest technicians protect your home and property?

4.1. How does an Unlimited Pest professional termite inspection find termite activity you are unaware of?

While much of termite damage is hidden, termites have few secrets to the eyes of Unlimited Pest professionals. Our technicians know the conditions they favor and how to find activities untrained eyes may not notice.

What will Unlimited Pest do to eliminate my termite problem?

Our team will create an invisible chemical barrier between your house and the termites by applying chemicals that will affect them as they pass through the barrier. They’ll also carry the chemical back to the termite colony, destroying it.

The treatment starts with a thorough inspection. Afterward, we will prepare an analysis of your home and property. Finally, we will apply materials to eliminate termites effectively.

4.3. How will Unlimited Pest achieve this invisible barrier?

We use different methods in each house, depending on the type of foundation, presence of construction chimneys, crawl space, or basement. We can apply materials by rodding along the walls, drilling through horizontal surfaces and into voids, or digging narrow trenches. The materials we use will kill termites and prevent their colony’s reentry.

4.4. Won’t this kind of thorough treatment be troublesome?

No, because we use new termite elimination technology. Our treatments usually take a single day or less, so they will not affect your daily routine. Additionally, since a home is the largest single investment most families in America will ever make, protecting its value is not much trouble.
