Termites are known for destroying whatever is in their path, and getting rid of them never seems easy. According to Capital Pest Services, Inc. general manager Mitch Taylor, an extermination expert who specializes in termite control at his Raleigh-based company, termites dont have to be that scary. As long as homeowners know the proper steps to take to prevent infestations, they can safeguard their properties from these menacing creatures.
In Raleigh, termite control is an especially important topic to homeowners because termites are just so common right now. Usually, I recommend that people looking for the best way to prevent termites from entering their homes get a full house Termidor termite treatment done by a professional pest control specialist.
Conventional
The termite treatment with Termidor is a conventional liquid application that involves the treatment of the soil around the houses foundation. When a termite control specialist from my company in Raleigh reports to the job site for a Termidor termite treatment, we will begin by trenching up the soil around the foundation of the house. The termiticidewhich is a chemical used to kill termiteswill then be applied into the trench, and the soil that was displaced will be filled back in on top to cover all the effected soil back up.
Single and Best
In my experience, the Termidor termite treatment is the single best way to prevent a termite infection from occurring in a home because it treats the soil around the foundation and discourages termites from entering the area to begin with. This method is far better than waiting for trouble and then responding by calling a pest control company, since it is almost always better to be proactive and preventative with pest control issues.
