Pre-Construction Termite Control with Termimesh
The humid climate in Texas makes Houston a hotbed for pest activity, including termites. Texans spend millions of dollars annually to repair damage caused by termites. With ABC pest control services, you can save a lot of time and money in the long run. Installing the 100% effective termite prevention, Termimesh, will prevent your home from being part of that statistic.
Effective Termite Prevention
Termites cause over a billion dollars in property damage every year in America. A single colony can consume the equivalent of a 2-foot long 2×4 plank of wood. This may not sound that destructive until you consider that piece of wood could be the support beam for a load-bearing wall.
Termimesh, when installed on a new property, is 100% effective at deterring termites from ever invading your home. With peace of mind like that, it only makes sense to be proactive in preventing what could be very costly damage to your property, especially when it is completely non-toxic and environmentally friendly.
What is Termimesh?
Keeping termites out with Termimesh means focusing on the areas where termites will try to enter your home. For that reason, Termimesh is a non-chemical, permanent barrier used in very specific places in the home’s slab. It’s essentially a non-corrosive, ultramarine-grade stainless steel barrier to keep termites out.
Termites colonize in the soil and enter buildings through the most minor points of entry (they only need 1/64th of an inch) that come into contact with soil.
During the construction phase, ABC can install Termimesh around service wires and pipes connecting to your home, which are then sealed inside the concrete. Termites cannot go through or damage the barrier.
Keep Your Home Termite Free
There are several methods for preventing termites from ever getting a foothold on your property well after Termimesh has been installed. These solutions include:
- Adding periodic termite inspections as part of your regular pest control services
- Scheduling a standalone termite inspection of your property by a trained termite control specialist
- Fixing any leaks or plumbing problems since termites are attracted to wood and moisture

“A few years ago we had some furry friends living in our attic. We called ABC and they immediately sealed the attic where they thought the rodents were entering - they also took care of the doting friend that had already made themselves at home. They were super professional and got the job done - we have been furry friend free ever since. We were so impressed with the response and professionalism we signed up for every other month pest control maintenance. Nduka has been managing our service for the last couple years - he is amazing. On time, great communication and super responsible. Highly recommend ABC but really really because of Nduka!!!”
