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

What Our Customers Are Saying
Toni Covarrubias
“So far the service we've been getting is as scheduled. However, this time I was not notified 30 minutes prior to arrival as originally told. The front looks great as usual. The backyard wasn't edged as nice as the front (or at all?), and I really would have appreciated deep edging around our firepit. Addendum 12/8/23: Changed 3 stars to 5 stars for follow-up service! After the above review, I was contacted by ABC in regards to my initial review. Anne was very courteous and eager to send someone out to follow up on my concerns. Arrangements were made that met my schedule, and the crew was very prompt in their arrival on said scheduled date. Our backyard is now 10 times better. Granted, there is still clean up to do on our part, but now it will be so much easier. Certainly worth the subscription price based on customer service alone! Photos depict final work first vs initial service.”

“I had an ammonia type smell in certain areas of the house along with numerous aggressive flies. I called ABC Home and Commercial Services first thing in the morning. A supervisor stopped at my house on his way into work to locate the problem. He then had a specialized technician-Matt- come by. He went in both attics and found some possible entry points at the roof whirlybird vents. He sealed them up. I have used ABC for years for my rodent exclusion protection on the house and have been very happy with them. I highly recommend their services.”
