Termite Control
Protect your property from wood-destroying invaders. Our licensed pest control experts handle all your termite control needs – residential, commercial, and everything in between.
5 Highlights on Termite Control
Termite Control is the targeted pest control service A & R Pest Solutions delivers to residential homes and commercial businesses facing wood-destroying pests. Our licensed exterminator services combine inspection, treatment, and monitoring for complete pest control protection.
- Comprehensive Inspection Reports — Our certified inspectors locate mud tubes, frass, and structural damage across crawl spaces, basements, and attics.
- Advanced Termite Baiting Systems — We install in-ground bait stations with hexaflumuron and noviflumuron to eliminate entire colonies, including the queen termite.
- Termite Fumigation Services — For widespread drywood infestations, our tenting process saturates the structure with fumigant, killing every worker termite, soldier, and alate inside.
- Chemical Soil Barriers — Our technicians apply fipronil and imidacloprid termiticides to soil perimeters, blocking subterranean termites from reaching wood and foundations.
- Ongoing Monitoring and Warranty — We monitor bait stations quarterly, re-treat as needed, and back every treatment plan with a written warranty.
Why Choose Our Termite Control
Termite Control from A & R Pest Solutions stands apart through credentials, experience, and measurable results. Our exterminators hold state licensing and complete continuing education in subterranean and drywood termite biology, treatment chemistry, and Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
We treat each property as a separate case. No two infestations look alike. A worker termite colony tunneling through a foundation requires a different approach than swarmers nesting in attic timber, and our entomologists design treatment plans matched to the species, structure, and severity.
Our guarantees protect your investment. Every termite control service includes a written warranty covering re-treatment at no additional cost if active termites return during the coverage period. We document every inspection, application, and bait station check so you always know what our pest services team did and why.
Safety drives every decision we make. Our crews wear respirators, gloves, and protective gear during fumigation and chemical work, and we choose biodegradable and low-toxicity products whenever the situation allows. We use eco-friendly borate treatments on accessible wood, reserving stronger termiticides for soil barriers where human contact stays minimal.
We answer calls and messages promptly, arrive on schedule, and explain findings in plain language. That combination of expertise, transparency, and accountability has made us a trusted pest control and exterminator services provider – serving every city we operate in across Washington state.
Signs You Need Termite Control
Termite Control becomes urgent when specific warning signs appear around your property. Catching these indicators early saves thousands in structural repairs and prevents colonies from spreading.
1. Mud Tubes on Foundations and Walls: Subterranean termites build pencil-thin mud tubes to travel between soil and wood. You’ll spot these brown tunnels running up concrete foundations, basement walls, or crawl space piers. Active tubes feel moist and contain live worker termites inside.
2. Discarded Wings Near Windows and Doors: When alates swarm to start new colonies, they shed their wings in piles near light sources. Finding small translucent wings on windowsills, door frames, or spider webs signals a mature colony nearby releasing reproductive swarmers.
3. Hollow-Sounding or Damaged Wood: Termites chew wood from the inside out, leaving a thin veneer on the surface. Tap suspected timber with a screwdriver handle. Hollow echoes, soft spots, or wood that crumbles under pressure confirms active feeding inside the grain.
4. Frass Piles and Pellet Droppings: Drywood termites push their droppings, called frass, out through small kick-out holes. These tiny six-sided pellets accumulate beneath infested furniture, baseboards, or ceiling beams and often get mistaken for sawdust or coffee grounds.
5. Sticking Doors, Warped Floors, and Cracked Paint: Termite damage shifts wood as moisture builds inside galleries. Doors that suddenly stick, floors that sag, and paint that blisters or cracks for no clear reason often point to hidden termite tunnels weakening structural members behind the surface.
Spotting any of these signs means calling or sending a message to A & R Pest Solutions for a same-day inspection.
Our Termite Control Process
Termite Control at A & R Pest Solutions follows a five-stage process designed for thoroughness and lasting results.
Step 1: Initial Inspection — Our inspector examines the entire property, including crawl spaces, attics, basements, soil perimeters, and accessible wood. We identify the termite species, map infestation zones, and document damage with photos.
Step 2: Treatment Plan Design — We build a written treatment program matched to your findings. The program specifies products, application zones, expected timelines, and pricing. Subterranean infestations typically receive soil barriers and bait stations, while drywood colonies call for fumigation or spot treatment with borate.
Step 3: Treatment Application — Our licensed technicians execute the plan. We trench and inject termiticide around foundations, install bait stations at measured intervals, drill and inject infested wood, or tent the structure for full fumigation depending on the species and scope.
Step 4: Verification and Cleanup — After treatment, we verify chemical coverage, secure bait stations, and aerate fumigated structures to safe re-entry levels. Our crew removes equipment, cleans work areas, and walks you through what we completed.
Step 5: Monitoring and Warranty Service — We return on a scheduled cycle to inspect bait stations, check for new activity, and refresh chemical barriers as needed. Your warranty covers re-treatment if termites reappear during the coverage window.
This staged approach catches problems early, eliminates active colonies, and blocks future invasions before damage spreads further.

FAQs About Termite Control
What is termite control?
Termite Control is a specialized pest control service covering the professional process of inspecting, treating, and monitoring properties to eliminate active termite colonies and prevent future infestations through chemical barriers, baiting systems, or fumigation.
When should I schedule termite control?
Schedule an inspection annually, after spotting swarmers, when buying a home, or anytime you notice mud tubes, frass, hollow wood, or discarded wings. Early intervention costs far less than structural repairs.
Why does termite control matter for my property?
Termites cause billions in structural damage each year across the United States. They chew through support beams, subfloors, and framing silently, often going undetected until major damage appears. Professional treatment stops the destruction.
How does termite control work?
Our technicians inspect the property, identify the species, then apply targeted treatments. Subterranean termites respond to soil termiticides and bait stations. Drywood termites require fumigation or localized borate injection. Monitoring follows every treatment.
Can termite control be safe for pets and children?
Yes. We choose low-toxicity and biodegradable products whenever conditions allow, apply chemicals in zones away from living areas, and follow strict re-entry protocols. Our crews verify safe conditions before clearing your home.
Does termite control come with a warranty?
Every A & R Pest Solutions termite control service includes a written warranty. If active termites return during the coverage period, we re-treat at no additional charge and adjust the treatment plan to address the recurrence.
