Sentricon for Termite Control 

Effective termite control in Hughes Springs requires the services of trained and experienced pest control specialists. The right products are essential for a lasting solution. The Sentricon system is a complete solution that works to prevent and treat termite infestations. During construction, Sentricon can be used as a pretreatment to help you avoid a termite problem in the first place. 

In addition to termite prevention, the Sentricon baiting system is effective for active termite infestations. The bait is attractive to termites and encourages them to take the bait and carry it back to the colony. When the termites share the bait with the rest of the colony, it will eliminate all of them, including the queen.  

Preventing & Treating Termite Infestations 

Subterranean termites live underground and build mud tubes to travel up from the ground into your home. Once inside, they breed rapidly and feast on the wood in your home, including inside the walls, wood flooring, and any other wood they can get to. Over time, termites can cause extensive structural damage to your home. People may not realize they have a termite problem until the pests have caused widespread damage. 

Signs of a termite problem include: 

• Mud tubes 
• Swarming activity 
• Seeing discarded wings on windowsills after swarming 
• Live termites 
• Termite droppings that resemble sawdust 
• A hollow sound when tapping on wood 
• Windows and doors that stick 

Because termites are present in every state except Alaska and have the ability to cause serious property damage, prevention is the best way to handle the threat. Pretreatment for new construction is designed to prevent termites in the first place. If you already have a termite problem, baiting treatments can be effective for eliminating the colony. 

Termite inspections can alert you to the presence of these pests before they have caused significant damage. If you are planning to buy or sell a home, a wood-destroying insect report will be required for the sale. This report includes an inspection for termites and other wood-destroying organisms.
