Effective Natural And Chemical Treatments For Ant Extermination

Although ants are an important character in our vast ecosystem, they are quite the household nuisance. 

Originating from Argentina, Argentine ants are lovers of warm weather and one of the most common ant types in California. Argentine ants are attracted to sweetness and moisture. Also common in California are fire ants, which can give you more than the heebie-jeebies; their bites can cause life-threatening allergic reactions. Carpenter ants are also a breed that is known to invade homes and nest themselves comfortably if left unattended.

The Most Effective Ant Treatment 

What is the most powerful ant extermination method? 

The short and simple answer is that ant removal treatments are only truly effective when they target the entire colony, not just those that are foraging or visible to you. If you have tried to remove the ants with insecticide only for ants to re-emerge, the reason why many DIY or at-home remedies do not work is because they only affect the ants you see—meanwhile, an entire colony of thousands of ants are nested out of sight. This is why professional extermination is highly recommended in order to remove the entire colony. 

Do-It-Yourself Ant Treatments: The Problem With Over-The-Counter Insecticides

If ants have infested your property, how do you get rid of them?

When you first discover an ant colony, the first thing you will likely want to do is either scream or run to the nearest store to buy insecticide. It may be tempting to douse the ants in over-the-counter insecticide and watch them squirm. 

However, it is important to understand why do-it-yourself methods may not be the safest or most effective option. In fact, over-the-counter ant solutions can sometimes make the issue worse. “Budding” is a behavior that occurs when ants are treated with an insecticide that is detectable to ants; the insecticide will repel the ants, deterring them away from their nest, causing them to start new colonies. While over-the-counter treatments may offer temporary relief, treatments that will remove ants from your home completely are best done by licensed and professional exterminators in California. 

Traditional Ant Extermination

Ants can be exterminated with poison, which they easily confuse with food. The ants either eat the poison or they will transfer it to their nest for other ants in their colony to eat. During chemical ant treatments, pets must be kept away, and food must be stored away and tightly shut.

Termidor is a popular and effective insecticide that does not trigger the budding effect. Termidor is a non-repellent that acts effectively upon contact, while being undetectable. The ants that have been in contact with Termidor will unknowingly transfer the chemical to other ants and the rest of their colony. 

Natural Ant Extermination

Are there organic or eco-friendly alternatives to chemical insecticide? 

Essential oils such as peppermint, orange, rosemary, and thyme are used in plant-based solutions to treat pests. These essential oils can be effective on ants upon contact, however they are less effective at targeting ants where they live and reproduce. 

Low-toxicity bait can be highly effective as an outdoor natural ant treatment. Bait stations are filled with an eco-friendly bait that is released by contact with rain (or any source of water). 

In addition to treating your home and removing the existing colony, our professional exterminators can also treat the perimeter of your home to repel any new colonies, which are always springing up across California and trying to infest homes like yours.

Pest Control For Stubborn Subterranean Termites

If you are wondering how termites got into your home, do not be quick to agonize or blame yourself. There is no need to cry over spilled milk. In many parts of the United States, pests are naturally occurring household problems due to environmental factors. The good news is that pests can be detected or even prevented through professional pest control and management. Homeowners should educate themselves on the cause of termite infestations and schedule regular professional inspections and treatments to protect their homes from pest damage.

California’s climate and biodiversity makes it a perfect host for pests of all kinds. Termites love moisture and cellulose; these pests cause billions of dollars worth of damage across the United States every year. Subterranean termites are possibly the most destructive type of termites, as they cause damage to the foundation of your home. Termites do not eat metal or concrete, but they are small enough to travel through small cracks of almost anything. Subterranean termites are unique in that they emerge from the soil underneath and surrounding your home, traveling through mud tubes as passages around obstacles in order to reach wood structures. Their swarming nature makes it possible for termite colonies to be nested hundreds of feet beyond the perimeter of your house. Some colonies may originate from another house and travel throughout your neighborhood, which is why annual inspections are highly recommended to detect new colonies. 

Subterranean Termites Require Specialized Treatments

Pest control should be part of your regular home maintenance. Extermination of all kinds of pests should be left in the hands of trained professionals, but especially for subterranean termites.

Subterranean termites can be more difficult to treat than dampwood or drywood types, due to their nests being underneath the home and in the soil. Tent fumigation involves tightly containing the air in your home through tenting and releasing a gas inside to kill the pests. Tenting is normally used to treat drywood termites; it isn’t the most effective extermination method for subterranean termites, because it does not directly treat the soil where the subterranean termites are nested. Similarly, orange oil can be highly effective on drywood termites, but usually not on subterranean termites. 

Treating infested soil is most commonly treated with liquid insecticide, which can be safely injected by professionals. Orange County exterminators who specialize in subterranean termites must have specialized knowledge in order to treat the soil and foundation of the property without contaminating vents, ducts, pipes, or outlets.

In some cases, the foundation of the home will need to be drilled through in order to thoroughly apply the termiticide into the concrete or wood. It is possible that the foundation of the home will need to be replaced entirely, which is why pest control and carpentry services should be completed simultaneously to treat the new wood with termiticide prior to it being installed to replace the structures.

If you have a pest problem, do not hesitate to call us to speak to our pest control professionals. We safely and effectively treat even the most difficult types of termites so that you can live in your home with peace of mind.

Professional Rodent Decontamination For Your Attic With Pest Control Insulation

It’s 3am and you can’t sleep because noises are coming from your attic. 

Many homeowners have been there, with our imagination running wild through every possibility—even wondering if paranormal activity might be real.

Attic Inspection and Decontamination

If you have discovered droppings or heard noises in your home, you may have rodents. The attic may be a scary place but rodent contamination is truly the stuff of nightmares. Many homeowners haphazardly try to clean up the place by themselves, unwittingly exposing themselves to danger. Rodents can carry Leptospirosis and Hantavirus and their waste can be the source of airborne diseases. Their bodily fluids (blood, oil, feces, saliva, and urine) contain bacteria which can develop into mold and mildew, which are hazardous to the health of you and your loved ones. Such biohazardous material must be properly disposed of. 

Rodent removal and decontamination requires more than a simple cleanup and placing a few traps. Rodents know how to hide when they hear humans approaching, and can easily make themselves undetectable to the untrained eye. Without thorough professional investigation, it may be impossible to know where to find and remove them. What’s worse is that they can become aggressive and bite when they feel threatened by human presence, which can leave you or your loved ones injured and infected. 

Rodent extermination and attic decontamination require professional training, equipment, and protection. Delaying pest control inspections and treatments can cause more damage as time goes on. Left untreated, the rodents may breed, or the mere presence of them can draw in other rodents to further invade your home. 

Rodent Pest Control Insulation

The rodent droppings can also be stuck in the insulation, which is what the air in your home passes through. The air that circulates throughout your home will be infected by the disease and odor of the droppings. This is both unbearable and unsanitary. 

Rodents can easily pass through small cracks and spaces within your home, searching for sustenance from your own family’s food supply. Food contamination poses serious health risks.

Natural Science Exterminating is qualified and licensed to sell and install specialized pest control insulation, which offers industry leading energy efficiency, fire retardation, and sound proofing. We offer installation for the only pest control insulation product on the market today with the Energy Star® label. Customers who choose to add this insulation to their homes are eligible for up to a $500 tax credit.

Prior to decontamination, your home will be thoroughly inspected. Your home will then be prepped for decontamination with proper safety protocols. The attic insulation will be removed and the affected areas will be decontaminated and sanitized before installing fresh new pest control insulation. 

We recommend calling the professionals to treat your home with the safest and most effective pest control. Early detection and treatment can save your home from damage and prevent you and your family from becoming infected and ill.

Pest Control Maintenance Plans Save Busy Homeowners Time And Money

California is the most biodiverse state in the United States. The beautiful and sunny state is the reason why so many tourists visit and residents live there. But they are not all—pests love it here too. 

California can be wet, dry, cold, or humid throughout the year. Insects tend to lay their eggs in the fall to incubate and hatch in the spring. The cold of the winter is what the insects try to escape by invading the indoors. The spring is when pest invasions are most intense, which is why homeowners should prepare their home with pest control in the winter prior. Many homeowners make the mistake of not preventing their homes from pests and resorting to last minute do-it-yourself treatments that are not effective at pest removal. 

Ants, Spiders, Fleas, Wasps, And Bees 

Seasonal changes affect the behaviors of insects, but pests can survive and reproduce all year—indoor or outdoor. Cockroaches seek food and water; they are the most active in the spring and fall, when there is the most moisture and decay. ​Wasps and bees are the most active in the summer, when colonies begin to ramp up construction of the nest. Spiders, fleas, ants, and other insects target homes in the fall and winter in an attempt to escape the cold. Ants hatch the highest number of eggs in the spring, which is why the winter is the best time to implement pest control before they hatch.

Ant Treatment

Ant colonies hide in places that most humans simply cannot see or get to. Which is why DIY ant treatments such as that insecticide spray from the home improvement store seems to work at first, but usually doesn't remove the entire colony. The problem is that ant colonies often build their nests out of sight or out of reach. Natural Science Exterminating professionals will carefully inspect your home to determine the source to remove the entire ant population and prevent them from coming back. 

There are over a dozen ant breeds in California. A few, like the fire ant, are more than a nuisance—they are a health hazard. Their painful bites and stings can be life-threatening. One of the best anti extermination methods is to provide the ants with a poisonous food source; the ants will either eat the substance as they find it, or they will bring the poison food back to their colony. This treatment is highly effective but requires that pets be kept away and pet food be stored away while the bait is in effect. Alternatively, natural ant extermination involves a granular bait that is released into the grass or soil whenever it rains or gets wet outside, targeting the ants and their nests.

Pest Control Contracts Help Busy Homeowner Save Time And Money

Given the biodiversity of California, pest control should be conducted year round. At Natural Science Exterminating, our annual contracts provide you and your home with comprehensive inspection, treatment, and prevention. Instead of anticipating what pests Mother Nature will bring into your home throughout the year and waiting to discover an infestation, early detection and treatment saves time and money in the long-run. It’s a proactive and stress-free treatment approach. 

Natural Science Exterminating is a family-owned business in Orange County with decades of pest control experience. We offer both natural and traditional treatments to ants, spiders, wasps, bees, fleas, and other pests.

How To Prevent Spiders From Entering Your Home

Houseplants have exploded in popularity. People are spending more time at home than ever before and picking up new hobbies and skills. The houseplant trend took social media by storm, with large communities on every major platform and a new type of influencer known as the “plantfluencer”. 


The benefits of houseplants include stress reduction and cleaner air. However, having plants in the home can pose the risk of attracting pests. Spiders are a very common household pest. While some people find them to be a small nuisance, others find them terrifying. 

How Dangerous Are Spiders?

Perhaps the most popular venomous spider is the black widow, identifiable by its black color and a red hourglass shape on her underside. 

The National Geographic reports that only a few out of the known 40,000 species of spiders can actually harm humans. A 2014 study in the Journal of Medical Entomology shows the "vast majority" of spiders found in fruits are harmless. 

If you come across a spider, do not panic, but at the same time, exercise caution. It is better to be safe than sorry. Do not touch the spider and call your local pest control immediately. In the case of an emergency, dial 911.

How Do Spiders Get Into The Home?

Spiders may crawl into your home when it gets too hot or too cold outside. Extreme weather conditions can lead spiders to seek refuge inside of your home, getting in through windows, doors, holes, the smallest of cracks, or any open space. They are especially active during mating season and may lay eggs in items you bring indoors. Food, especially fruits, and water can attract spiders into your home. They like to be in moist environments, which is why you will most commonly find webs in your bathroom or basement. 

Spider Repellent and Traps

Essential oils, especially peppermint oil, are a highly effective form of natural spider repellant. Fill a spray bottle with cold water and fifteen to twenty drops of peppermint oil and shake it and then spray onto floors, corners, cracks, and window frames. 

Nonetheless, spiders can still find their way in. Non-toxic sticky traps are an easy way to trap spiders. Leave the sticky trap in common crawl spaces, and once they crawl onto it, they will get stuck by the adhesive.

Spider Pest Control

It is best to call professional pest control services if you see or suspect a spider infestation. Even if a spider is not venomous, they may weave unsightly spider webs around your house, or find a mate to lay and hatch eggs with. A spider colony can be very uncomfortable and even unhygienic to live with. 

Natural Science Exterminating is a family owned business in Orange County with decades of pest control experience. We offer both natural and traditional treatments to spiders, bees, termites, rats, and other pests. In the event that a spider or pest is threatening your health, family, or property, we are available for emergency pest control. You can count us to remove spiders from your home safely and effectively.

Avoid Making These Termite Treatment Mistakes!

Unfortunately many homeowners don’t know the safest and most effective ways to prevent termites from their homes. There are many mistakes that homeowners make because they do not know what signs to look out for and what they should do when they suspect a termite infestation. Homeowners can save money and protect their precious homes by avoiding several mistakes.

Mistake: Skipping Termite Inspections

Termite prevention isn’t exactly a one-and-done treatment. The best way to prevent termites is with annual inspections. Just like regular checkups for your physical health, prevention is the best line of defense. 

Mistake: Skipping Pre-Treating Wood During Construction

As the real estate market booms, demand grows for custom-built homes. Some buyers are buying property in its construction state. During the construction stage, the wood foundations and structures can be treated to prevent termites for the life of the wood. Many home buyers make the mistake of skipping this treatment to save money, only to later experience a termite infestation that requires costly and extensive treatment. 

Mistake: Leaving Mulch And Firewood Close To The House

Termites feed on wood and wood-based materials. Leaving mulch or firewood close to the home is like leaving their favorite food close to your home; it draws them to your property and increases the likelihood of an infestation.

Mistake: Attempting To Do It Yourself Instead Of Hiring Professional Exterminators

Every homeowner wants to save money, and some will attempt to treat the infestation by themselves. However, most do not know the proper method to inspect and exterminate termites. DIY treatments may give you the illusion that you have killed the termites, when in reality, you haven’t killed the entire colony and now they are free to reproduce and spread, unbeknownst to you; this only worsens the situation.

Mistake: Skipping Bora-Care

The best exterminator will try to prioritize spot treatment and natural treatment whenever possible. However, the best exterminators will also let homeowners know when an infestation is so severe that it requires tent fumigation or traditional termiticide. Tent fumigation without Bora-Care will remove the termites, but won’t prevent them from coming back. Bora-Care is the industry gold standard for a reason: it removes the termites and keeps them away. 

Mistake: Using Orange Oil On Subterranean Termites

Orange oil works well to kill dry wood termites but not subterranean termites. Orange oil disintegrates the exoskeleton of the insect. Some termite invasions are so widespread that orange oil will not be effective enough. Orange oil is a practical treatment method for localized dry wood termites, but tent fumigation can assure total termite removal of the entire colony from the entire property. Tent fumigation and Bora-Care are often necessary to kill the termites and prevent them from coming back.

Natural Science Exterminating prioritizes spot treatment and organic treatment over tent fumigation and traditional chemicals whenever possible. However, we will always recommend the best approach for your unique situation. Instead of making costly termite treatment mistakes, you can count us to exterminate your home safely and effectively.

Why You Should Treat Your Home With Bora-Care During Construction

Are you thinking of buying a newly-built or custom-built home? Prospective home buyers should know that homeownership is a heavy responsibility, both financially and physically. 

Pest control and maintenance can be some of the most significant expenditures for home maintenance. In addition to the physical damage, termites also cause financial damage, being one of the most prevalent pests in the United States. Termites accumulate more than $5 billion in property damage every single year across the country. A colony of termites in your home could cause massive and widespread physical damage. These pests feed on anything that has wood cellulose, which includes wall studs, posts, and beams. In severe cases where termites go unnoticed for more extended periods, these pests make the home an unlivable and unsafe space, posing danger and potential health risks. 

When it comes to treating termite infestations, homeowners face two expenses. One expense is hiring pest control experts to use professional methods to exterminate the termites. The second expense is repairing the physical damage to the home.

Proactive termite prevention can help homeowners save money in the long run. By preventing the risk of a termite infestation, homeowners are less likely to have to worry about extermination and repair after the fact. Bora-Care, a salt-based solution that works on any exposed wood, including foundations, basement, or attics, is one of the most efficient solutions to protect your home against termite attacks. 

What is Bora-Care?

Bora-Care contains borate mineral salt, an active ingredient, that penetrates the wood and lasts the lifetime of the wood. Bora-Care works by preventing the wood from being a food source, rather than other methods that involve treating the soil. Many home builders have adopted the treatment since the construction stage is the only time where all of the wood is accessible. If you are buying a newly-built or custom-built home, consider hiring professionals to treat the wood with Bora-Care while the house is in the construction stage. 

Preventative treatments are a great investment, saving money from having to exterminate your entire house if an infestation were to occur after the construction. Natural Science Exterminating uses Bora-Care to pre-treat the wood during the “dried-in” stage of construction, when the exterior walls, studs, roof, sheathing elements are in place, but before the interior wall coverings and insulation are installed. 

Natural Science Exterminating tries to spot treat or use organic treatments like orange oil whenever effectively possible. However, the most severe cases of termite infestation require the entire home to be fumigated. The cost and stress of exterminating can be avoided if you have the home treated properly during construction. Some of the homes we have treated are still free of any signs of termites 10 years later! 

If you notice a termite attack in your home, do not hesitate to call our professional exterminators. We work with the construction team of your home to ensure that Bora-Care is applied correctly so that you can move into your new home with peace of mind.

What Are Certified Real Estate Home Inspection Reports?

As the pandemic hit, the world found itself faced with many difficulties that most people were not prepared for. The economy is being hit hard. Many businesses have not fully adjusted to the adversity of these unique times; many have incurred losses so severe that owners have had to shut down their operations. At the same time, the standard of living has increased. Unfortunately, limited supply causes upward pressure on prices. This is especially true for urban areas, which are especially costly to live in—everything from rent to weekly groceries can burn through your savings. Many young professionals are struggling to save for the purchase of their first home, and many existing homeowners feel the pressure to downsize. 

Every buyer wants to be assured that their future home is more than just a pretty face. That is why home inspections are a crucial part of every real estate deal. While everything may look perfect on the surface, home inspections provide a closer look at any potential concerns behind-the-scenes, through a licensed third party. 

What is a WDO Report Certification? 

They are the stuff of nightmares; WDOs (Wood Destroying Organisms) are typical in America. In fact, termites cause an average of five billion dollars of damage every year.

Along with termites, WDOs include carpenter ants, bees, and beetles. Without treatment, they eat their way through the wood that makes up the structural integrity of the house. Unless a homebuyer knows what to look for, termites can be difficult to detect with the naked eye. Thus, it could take at least three to eight years before the signs of a termite infestation are apparent. As such, many mortgage providers and states require a pest inspection. 

A WDO Report Certification is crucial in real estate deals. Without a detailed WDO real estate home inspection, you run the risk of buying a house with massive structural damage. This is every buyer’s worst nightmare, as many homeowner insurance policies do not cover any damage caused by termites and other wood-destroying organisms. 

To avoid getting stuck with costly, extensive damage that is usually not covered by homeowner’s insurance, you should always ask for a WDO inspection before finalizing the purchase of your home. If you are looking to sell your home and downsize, WDO inspection certifications are crucial to expediting the sale of your current property. If signs of damage are discovered during the inspection, you should treat the pest issues immediately. If pests are found during your inspection, wood replacement may be required. 

WDO inspection certifications give buyers confidence that they are acquiring a pest-free property. Note that not all home inspectors can officially conduct WDO inspections unless they work for a regulated and licensed pest control company with certified inspectors. Always hire an experienced and qualified termite inspector for your WDO inspection.

If you are buying or selling real estate, call us to get a certified real estate home inspection report. Natural Science Exterminating is certified in providing termite inspection, treatment, and carpentry services.

Wood Repairs for Damage Caused by Termites

Termites cause severe damages to homes, often costing thousands of dollars in repairs, which aren’t covered in standard insurance policies. It’s been estimated that damage to homes caused by termites runs into billions every year. Wreaking havoc on homes and wooden structures, termites can be problematic for anybody who has to deal with them.

Damage to your home, whether invasive or minor, can impact their resale value. After all, no one likes to purchase a house infested with termites. In fact, unattended termites can ruin a home from the inside out.

Pest control methods must be implemented throughout the year to prevent and treat infestations. Orange oil is a natural termite removal option, while Bora-Care is the industry-leading traditional option. 

Termite-infested wood looks darker and creates a hollow sound. Termites can leave trails that appear irregular and also develop irregular patterns on nearby wooden or non-wooden items, often looking like a grid made of fine lines. 

Damage is considered as minimal when the infestation seems to be along the surface only. That means that the termites have not invaded the core of the infested area. Non-invasive damage is the easiest to repair and is most typical among untreated wooden structures.

The repair technique is intended at hardening the wood, thus lending it more termite resistance. Infested wooden structures can be treated with wood treatment products, like wood hardeners, which are special adhesives that fill in the fibers damaged by the termites. Hardening the wood lends to more termite resistance. 

The infested wooden surface must be scraped away with a chisel and sanded to make a smooth surface. Then wood is then repaired with wood fillers, or it will be replaced entirely with new wood. Sometimes, the termite damage can be so severe that the wood cannot be salvaged and must be repaired for the structural integrity of the property and safety of the occupants.

Professional Wood Repair for Termite Damage

Repairing termite damage may seem challenging to many homeowners. There are different wood repair methods following termite damage. The correct repair method should be selected only after assessing the severity of the infestation.

Both termite treatments and wood repairs are often beyond the scope of standard home repairs. For damage caused by termites, it is highly recommended to seek professional carpentry from an exterminator, instead of attempting to do it yourself. In addition to replacing or repairing the damaged wood, the process involves working around any plumbing or wiring connections enclosed in the infested sites. Also, surrounding structures should be treated to eliminate every trace of infestation. As such, professional termite exterminators with wood repair services are best equipped to deal with such complicated termite wooden repairs.

It is best to call an expert who can treat the infestation and repair the damage altogether. Natural Science Exterminating provides wood repair services to restore your home to the structural integrity it had before the infestation. During the carpentry repair process, we may discover and treat additional termites, which cannot be done with traditional carpenters, as this requires a licensed pest control professional. During the repair process, we may find more termite damage or dry rot, which requires additional repair and replacement. Occupants do not need to vacate the premises during the wood repair process. We do not paint the wood, however, we prime it to prepare for paint.

Natural Pest Control Maintenance

What is the cost of termite damage?

Termite infestations are a significant threat to homes. Apart from the inconvenience caused by such infestations, the costs of damages are significant. In the United States alone, termite damage costs homeowners over five billion dollars in repairs every year. 

Further, the average homeowner will pay at least a few thousand dollars to cover the costs of fixing any cosmetic or structural damage caused by these termites. 

If you are thinking of purchasing a home, having the property inspected for termites before signing the dotted line can save you much trouble later on. Are you taking out a mortgage? There is a good chance that your lender will require you to have a termite inspection before the sale is finalized. 

How to prevent termites and save money

It is hard to feel comfortable in your home if you find yourself quite worried about termite infestation, especially if your neighbors or other homeowners in your area have had instances of such infestation. Calling experts to come and inspect your home for termites will give you peace of mind in knowing that home is safe from such pests. However, if the inspector does discover your home to be infested, the news of a termite infestation can be quite a big shock. As such, many homeowners would benefit from annual inspections and continual inspections throughout the year. Natural Science Exterminating offers free termite estimates over the phone and one-time pest control treatments including natural ant extermination typically cost $225.00 but if you call now we are offering a 10% discount for termite and pest control.

Regular inspections and preventative measures can save you from the high expenses of repairing damage in the future.

Chemical extermination versus natural termite treatment 

Bora-Care is a borate-based product for the prevention and control of termites. It is applied directly to the wood. Orange oil is an organic termite treatment that kills termites by breaking down their exoskeleton and destroying their eggs. However, the latter is only efficient against dry wood termites as such pests live and colonize the wood they’re infesting. They are not as effective against subterranean termites as those that live in the soil and come up to feed on wood. Many homeowners prefer natural and organic extermination, which is why Natural Science Exterminating prioritizes eco-friendly options whenever possible. However, organic termite removal treatments aren’t always as effective as their chemical counterparts. Natural termite care and treatment might require using multiple treatments as the entire colony is not eliminated during a single treatment. 

Spot treatment versus tent fumigation 

Spot treatment is a process of drilling tiny holes into the wood and inserting a dry termiticide. This treatment is intended to target local points of infestations. We also have the carpentry expertise to repair wood damage on small and large infestations. On the other hand, tent fumigation involves covering the entire space with a tent and using gas to kill and destroy termites and their colonies. We only use tent fumigation as the last resort.

One-time extermination versus continuous pest prevention

Termite problems in the country are widespread. If left untreated, a termite infestation can cause damages amounting to thousands of dollars, and new termites can reinvade the home, as new colonies are constantly forming. These nightmares can be easily prevented with low-cost, flat-rate treatments through an on-going pest control maintenance plan.

You can proactively stop this by calling us. Ask about our flat rate pest control maintenance program and free termite inspections. Our experts can locate early signs of termites and treat them sooner rather than later.
