Signs of a Termite Control Problem

Watch for these warning signs at your home or property.

Why Termite Control Matters in Arizona

Subterranean termite treatment in Arizona is critical because the state ranks among the highest-risk for termite damage. The desert’s warm soil temperatures and monsoon moisture create year-round conditions for active colonies. Unlike many states where termites slow down in winter, Arizona termites remain active 12 months a year.

Termite damage is not covered by standard homeowner’s insurance. Left untreated, a single colony can cause thousands of dollars in structural damage to framing, flooring, and support beams. According to the National Pest Management Association, termites cause an estimated $5 billion in property damage annually across the U.S., and Arizona properties are among the most frequently affected.

Our Termite Control Process

Thorough Inspection

Our state-licensed technicians inspect your home’s foundation, crawl spaces, attic, plumbing penetrations, and all wood-to-ground contact points. We identify active infestations, colony entry points, and conditions that invite termite activity.

Custom Treatment Plan

Based on the inspection, we design a treatment plan tailored to your home’s construction type, soil conditions, and infestation severity. No cookie-cutter approach.

Liquid Barrier Treatment

Professional-grade termiticide is applied along the foundation perimeter, around plumbing penetrations, and at identified entry points to create a continuous chemical barrier that eliminates termites on contact and prevents re-entry.

Monitoring and Follow-Up

After treatment, we monitor your property for continued activity and re-treat as needed. We document all findings for your records.

1-Year Warranty

All termite treatments include a one-year warranty with options for extended annual renewal coverage.

Termite Species in the Phoenix Area

Desert Subterranean Termite

Heterotermes aureus

The most common termite in Maricopa County. Workers are small, pale, and soft-bodied, about 1/4 inch long. Colonies live underground and build mud tubes to reach wood above the soil line. Active year-round in Arizona’s warm desert soils.

Arid-Land Subterranean Termite

Reticulitermes tibialis

Similar to the desert subterranean but slightly larger colonies. Found in landscaped areas with irrigation and mulch. Builds extensive mud tube networks. Common in older Phoenix neighborhoods with mature trees and dense landscaping.

Western Drywood Termite

Incisitermes minor

Unlike subterranean species, drywood termites live entirely inside the wood they eat. No soil contact or mud tubes required. Found in door frames, window sills, and attic framing. Infestations are usually localized but can spread if untreated.

Family owned since 1986. No contracts required.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have termites?

The most common sign is mud tubes, pencil-width tunnels running along your foundation, stem walls, or plumbing penetrations. You may also notice hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings after a swarm, or bubbling paint that resembles water damage. Because termites work from the inside out, professional inspections are the most reliable detection method.

How much does termite treatment cost in Phoenix?

Cost depends on your home’s size, construction type, severity of the infestation, and the treatment method required. We provide honest, transparent quotes after a thorough inspection. Call (602) 944-0099, no high-pressure sales.

Is termite treatment safe for kids and pets?

Yes. Modern termiticides are applied to soil and structural voids, not living spaces. Products are designed to target termites specifically while posing minimal risk to humans and pets when applied according to label directions. We always prioritize your family’s safety.

How long does termite treatment last?

Professional liquid barrier treatments typically provide protection for 5 or more years, though annual inspections are recommended to ensure continued effectiveness. Our 1-year warranty can be extended with annual renewal for ongoing peace of mind.

Can I treat termites myself?

Over-the-counter products are not effective against subterranean termite colonies. Professional-grade equipment and products are required to create a continuous barrier around your foundation. DIY treatments typically fail because they cannot reach the depth and coverage needed to protect the entire structure.

When is termite season in Arizona?

Arizona termites are active year-round due to warm soil temperatures. Swarm season, when reproductive termites emerge to start new colonies, typically occurs from January through April in the Phoenix area. However, subterranean colonies feed continuously regardless of season.

Does homeowner's insurance cover termite damage in Arizona?

No. Standard homeowner’s insurance policies do not cover termite damage, so repair costs from an active infestation fall entirely on you. Since Arizona’s warm soil and monsoon moisture keep subterranean termite colonies active year round, prevention and early treatment are the only real protection. Call (602) 944-0099 for an inspection.

What does a termite inspection include?

Our state-licensed technicians check your home’s foundation, crawl spaces, attic, and plumbing penetrations, along with any spot where wood touches the ground. We’re looking for active infestations, entry points colonies are using to get inside, and conditions around your property that invite termite activity in the first place.

What kind of termites are most common in the Phoenix area?

Subterranean termites are by far the most common and destructive species here. They live in underground colonies that can number in the hundreds of thousands and attack wood framing, drywall paper, and structural supports from below, so most homeowners never spot a problem until real damage has already been done.
