Pre-Construction Termite Control in Austin, TX
The warm, humid climate in Central Texas makes our area a hotbed for pest activity, including termites. The most effective way to protect your biggest investment from these destructive pests is by installing Termimesh during construction. The experts at ABC Home & Commercial Services can work with you to ensure this proven, non-chemical solution serves as an effective physical barrier to keep termites away from your home.
The EPA reports that steel mesh barriers “have been shown to perform effectively as physical barriers” for termites. Termimesh takes that basic principle and improves on it with a unique, woven mesh of non-corrosive stainless steel that termites simply can’t penetrate.
Termites can’t eat through it, crawl through it, break through it or get around it. And to ensure proper installation and high quality, Termimesh only allows accredited and licensed installers—such as ABC Home & Commercial Services in Austin—to perform installations.

3. Treatment

4. Prevention
Customers with our ongoing pest management services will receive periodic retreatments to prevent the return of the most common pests in our area.
Keeping termites out with Termimesh means zeroing in on the areas where termites will try to get in. For that reason, Termimesh is a non-chemical, permanent barrier, that is used in very specific places in the home’s slab. It’s essentially a stainless steel barrier to keep termites out.
For example, even before your builder pours the concrete for your slab, we encase all of the pipes that come through the slab for your plumbing system, with Termimesh, leaving no gap for termites to slip through.
In short, if there’s a way termites will try to get in, we block it with Termimesh.

What Our Customers Are Saying

“ABC is simply the best company around. We started using them a decade ago for pest control. Then we slowly transitioned to using them for everything— our air conditioning services, our plumbing, our handyman services, and now our electricity. ABC gives me hope that businesses can still be ethical, have excellent customer service, and provide high quality work at a good price. Zach Sellers is the electrician that just installed lights in our garage and extra plugs in our bathroom. He was so polite. His work had the precision of a neurosurgeon!!! Three years, we ended our home warranty insurance with American Home Shield. Home Shield often could not do the job (twice, we called ABC to fix their work) or were unable to come out in a timely manner. ABC employees are more skilled, more efficient, and nicer than anyone that Home Shield sent. I love ABC and I highly recommend them for ALL your home needs.”

“Last week, ABC's Alma A. provided the best service consultation that I've ever had for any type of service. She visited my home to investigate a wildlife concern in my yard. She was personable and professional. She communicated clearly throughout the visit. I was informed about what she was looking for, what she observed, what was not a concern, what was a concern, and the action I could take. All of my questions were thoroughly answered and I was very much put at ease by her expertise. The proposed services were reasonable to me, but the quality of Alma’s consultation sold me on doing business with ABC. Yesterday, I received great pest control service from Jeremy A. He was cordial and knowledgeable. All of my questions were fully answered and tasks were completed efficiently. An additional service was unexpectedly needed. Jeremy called the office and quickly arranged to handle it during the same visit. That was so helpful. So far, I am very pleased with ABC.”
