Termites don't announce themselves the way most pests do. In Arverne, a humid continental climate with hot, humid summers and cold winters, moderated somewhat near the coast, and A blend of dense urban multi-family construction and single-family suburban homes, most with basements or crawl spaces. Regular inspection is the only reliable way to catch a colony before it causes real structural damage.
Because termite colonies operate underground and out of sight, our process leans heavily on inspection: checking every foundation wall, sill plate, and crawl space for activity. From there we deploy either soil treatment or a Sentricon-style bait and monitoring program, both backed by a written service report.
