Signs of Termite Infestation
Termites often go unnoticed until significant damage occurs. Common signs of an infestation include:
- Hollow-sounding wood or bubbling paint
- Mud tubes along the foundation or walls
- Discarded wings near windows or doors
- Small piles of frass (termite droppings).
Beyond these signs, it's essential to consider the season, as termites are more active during warmer months. Our team in Tulsa is trained to recognize subtle signs of activity that may not be immediately visible to homeowners.
The Importance of Professional Service
Termite control is not a candidate for do-it-yourself projects. These pests live in massive underground colonies that can house hundreds of thousands of members, extending deep into the soil where retail sprays cannot reach. DIY treatments often only displace the termites temporarily, causing them to move to a different area of your home while they continue to feed on the structure.
Professional service is essential because licensed technicians have access to specialized equipment and industrial-grade termiticides that are not available to the general public. These products are designed to transfer throughout the colony, effectively collapsing the population from the inside.
Moreover, a professional can distinguish between different wood-destroying organisms and identify conducive conditions, such as wood-to-ground contact or moisture issues, that attract these pests. Relying on an expert ensures a comprehensive defense strategy that protects the structural integrity of your building and maintains its market value.

Prevention Tips for Homeowners
While professional treatment is the only way to stop an infestation, you can make your home less attractive to termites by reducing moisture and wood-to-ground contact. Ensure that downspouts and gutters divert water away from your foundation, as damp soil attracts these pests. Fix any leaky faucets or pipes immediately, and ensure your crawl space has proper ventilation to reduce humidity levels.
Inspect the perimeter of your house and remove any lumber, firewood, or cardboard stacked against the foundation. Ideally, maintain a gap of at least six inches between the soil and any wood siding or decking. If you have mulch in your garden beds, keep it thin and away from the immediate exterior of the house. These proactive steps help reduce the conducive conditions that allow colonies to establish themselves near your home.

Understanding Termite Biology & Behavior
As a termite control company, understanding termite biology and behavior is crucial to delivering effective solutions. Termites are social insects that live in colonies, typically in soil, and are primarily divided into three types: subterranean, drywood, and dampwood. Each colony is typically composed of workers, soldiers, and reproductive individuals known as alates.
Workers are the most numerous and do the most damage by feeding on cellulose-based materials like wood. Subterranean termites, the most destructive, build mud tubes to reach food sources and protect themselves from the open air.
Termite behavior often revolves around finding food and water while building their colonies. They are known for their ability to damage structures unnoticed, as they can bypass surface materials to feed on internal structures. Understanding these behaviors allows us to devise the most effective treatment plans possible.
Our protection plans are designed to help ensure your home remains pest-free throughout the year. We offer a range of treatment plans tailored to meet your specific needs.
In addition to our treatment plans, we are committed to educating our clients about termite biology. This knowledge empowers homeowners, allowing them to spot potential threats early and act swiftly, leveraging professional assistance for comprehensive management.
Our protection plans are designed to ensure your home stays pest-free all year long! We have a variety of treatment plans to suit your needs.
