Are there any termite guys in here???

Recommended Posts

I did my house myself. You can buy termidor yourself and mix and apply it. Dig trenches in the dirt and drill the concrete. I have a hammer drill from my construction days so I didn't need that but you can rent them at Home Depot. I bought a paint pot from harbor freight and hooked it up to my air compressor and used that to inject the chemicals with a long air compressor air wand in the holes.

 

My father in law helped me and it took less than a day to do my 1300' house.

If you have a service do it read the fine print on the warranty and how they will retreat if they come back. They also need to drill the slab to do the job well. The stupid power washer method the cheap places use doesn't last.

 

Strike force did my house when we bought it and they sucked. They power washed the chemical and when they came back they will only spot treat. Don't use them.

I owned a pest control company for 5 years, and we only did spot treatments on retreats. This is common practice in the industry. I can't think of a single company that does full treatments after the initial treatment. If you'd like to get in touch with the guys that bought my business let me know. They use Termidor and speaking from a guy that used to do this for a living, that's the only way I'd go!

I own a home inspection business and have a pest control company that does all of my termite inspections for me. They only do full treatments (unless under the initial 5 year warranty) and have great prices. The treatment comes with a one year warranty that can be renewed at the end of the year. They do treatments all over the valley. Let me know if you are interested and I can get you their contact information.
