Your Local Family-Operated Termite Control Specialists
Have you noticed weak spots in your walls? Think you’ve seen termites outside, but you’re not quite sure? It’s time to call your local termite control and termite management team at Brady Pest to protect your home or business from the threat of these wood-eating insects. In fact, termites can cause extensive damage to your property and the structure of the home itself.
Termites, like ants, live in colonies that are mostly underground. When outside, they feed on wood, trees, and other material. However, when they run out of things to devour, it’s your home that they’ll turn their eye to. That delicious wood structure of your home calls out to them and could put you in trouble if you don’t deal with the threat right away.
Termite Swarms
This is a term that we hear frequently, and it strikes fear in the heart of many a home and business owner. However, a termite swarm may not mean that your home is infested – yet. But, it is a sign that you need to have your home and your property inspected for the presence of termites to ensure you won’t be infested any time soon.
Signs of a Termite Problems
It may not be immediately clear if you have a termite control problem. The signs are subtle, and you may not notice them unless you come face to face with them feasting on the frame of your home. Termite damage can run thousands of dollars, so it’s important to keep a lookout for signs of termite damage if you own your property. Those signs include:
- The presence of termite swarmers
- Mud Tubes on foundation walls, support piers, still plates, floor joists, etc.
- Wood Damage
- Soft walls or studs
- Wood hollowed out along the grain
Safe, Effective Termite Extermination Treatments
Just as your home security system protects you from burglars and thieves, you must employ a termite protection system to keep your home or business free of this destructive insect. At Brady Pest, we utilize the Exterra Termite Interception & Baiting System for complete protection from multiple species of termites.
However, the Exterra system isn’t just another insecticide application. Other systems use toxic chemicals, while we use safe, environmentally friendly methods that are harsh for termites but nice for your family. Furthermore, we’re not done once the termite leaves – it’s an ongoing job to keep them away, and our trained professionals are up to the task. Stations use natural proprietary material to safeguard your home and cut out the harsh chemicals used in baiting stations by other companies.
