Termite Control in Tyler, TX

We Know Termites in Tyler

In addition to helping home and business owners control nearly any type of common pest, ABC has a proven track record of providing effective, friendly termite control in the Tyler area.

Tyler residents can rely on ABC’s experienced pest control professionals to perform:

Termite Inspections

Every year subterranean termites swarm to establish a new colony, making it critical that homeowners have their home inspected annually for any new termite activity. An ABC team member will examine your home for evidence of wood-destroying insects (WDIs) and any damage they may have done.

Termite Treatment & Monitoring

If you find a termite on your property or suspect you may have a problem, you’ll want to have a professional treat your home quickly to prevent any further damage. ABC uses Termidor, a product that bonds to the soil to create a barrier that termites cannot detect. When applying this product, our experts will pay extra attention to common problem areas, including where your plumbing enters your slab.

Termidor is a non-repellent that is odor-free. When subterranean termites tunnel through treated soil, these destructive pests will be exposed to the lethal ingredients in the product. Within three months, studies show that Termidor will eradicate your termite population. Even better, long-term research indicates that Termidor is still effective more than ten years after treatment.

Controlling a termite infestation is impossible without eliminating the entire colony, which can grow to be over a million members. To make sure no colony members remain, ABC’s pest control experts will install monitoring stations around your property that contain cellulose-based tablets, a preferred source of food for termites. These tablets contain targeted inhibitors that halt colony growth by preventing termites from molting or producing eggs. Technicians will return to your property to check the stations for any signs of termite activity. Our experts will also inspect your property to ensure that you are protected from a termite infestation.

Signs of a Termite Infestation

• Damaged wood that is sagging, buckling, crumbling or hollow
• Piles of insect wings near windowsills, doors, or other areas
• Small piles of what looks like dirt (termite frass) near wood, molding or along walls
• Mud tubes along walls or foundations, typically the width of a pencil
• Flying termites (known as swarmers) in or near your property

Termite Damage Repair Plan

One of the hardest aspects of a termite infestation is that damage is often not covered under your homeowners’ policy. That’s why ABC offers our customers a special damage repair plan with some ongoing termite contracts. If your property sustains damage while under that program, you will be eligible for compensation so that you can make necessary repairs.
