Termite Control and Prevention in San Juan County

June 27, 2022

Termites can cause extensive damage and leave you with large repair costs to your home. Because termites are repelled by light, it is unlikely that you will actually see bugs crawling across your floor or along your walls. Termite destruction is done behind walls and under floors unseen, leading to huge infestations if you are not actively looking for signs.

Termite control

Having regular, trained eyes on your San Juan County property will keep your house or commercial property from being destroyed by termites or at least catch an infestation early. Knowing the signs of termites is helpful but you may still worry that termites are lurking behind the walls. Put your mind at ease and have a professional inspect your home at least once a year. A yearly inspection and treatment if necessary will cut off any potential damage from getting out of control and you can know that your greatest asset, your home, is safe.

Don’t put off starting a yearly inspection of your home from the expensive damage of termites. Protect your home from the damaging effects of termites by calling a professional who has a plan to treat your home and property for termites.

Termite treatments in San Juan County

Finding a pest control company that will come to your home at regular intervals to check your property for termites and treat any places if termites are found, can keep your home safe without you having to remember how long it has been since the last inspection. A professional termite exterminator can set up quarterly or yearly inspections so your home is getting a good scan of any potential activity from these wood-eating bugs.

Treatment for termites can include:

Sprays and foams sprayed into the walls through tiny holes to eradicate termite colonies.
Soil barrier termiticides are placed in the ground around the home.
Green options using heat or high voltage can eliminate infestations
Bait traps are placed around the outside of the home to exterminate colonies through poisoned food brought back to the colony.

Prevention

There are a few things you can do to prevent your home from being easily accessible to termites.

Keeping dirt and flower bed mulch below the foundation. If the termites infest the mulch and have cover from dirt to find cracks and holes in the foundation, you are making your home look warm and inviting to termites.
Wood piles and old stumps close to the house also bring these destructive pests too close for comfort.
Fix any water leaks immediately.
Ask the termite technician for any specific advice about your property.

When the infestation is discovered, the damage can be so much that your San Juan County home is now structurally compromised. For the very best termite control and prevention, Larry’s Pest Patrol has the experience and practice to inspect your home thoroughly and eradicate your termite problem quickly. Protect your home by setting up a routine termite inspection with Larry’s Pest Patrol today.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Larry’s Pest Patrol did an excellent job treating our townhouse for termites.  From the beginning, their communication and attention to detail were impressive.  Brian, the owner, called me the day before the scheduled treatment to make sure I was prepared and that everything was ready for the work to begin the following morning. Brian and Jay arrived on time on the day of treatment.  Before starting, Brian took the time to answer my questions and listen carefully to my concerns, particularly about the gravel path on the east side of the townhouse.  That path has both large and small gravel arranged in a specific way, and I wanted to make sure the treatment work did not disturb that arrangement. Brian and Jay were very accommodating.  They laid down plastic that I provided so the larger gravel could be kept separate from the smaller gravel while the work was being performed.  Jay dug the necessary trenches around the townhouse for the termiticide treatment and then took the extra time to return the gravel to its original arrangement when the work was complete. Matt, the service manager, also did an excellent job foaming the wall cavities.  He was very careful about where he made the necessary access holes in the drywall, choosing inconspicuous locations whenever possible.  After the foaming was completed, Matt went back and filled the holes he had made, leaving the work neat and unobtrusive. Brian did an equally good job where drilling into concrete was required.  He selected inconspicuous locations for the holes, pumped the termiticide into the drilled areas, and then went back afterward and filled the holes with cement so the finished work was clean and professional. Brian, Jay, and Matt worked very well together as a team.  They were professional, respectful of the property, careful with the details, and completed the job in a timely manner.  I was very pleased with both the quality of their work and the way they treated my property throughout the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Larry’s Pest Patrol to anyone needing professional termite treatment.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a technician come out to my Dads house that hasn’t been treated since the 60’s! Daniel did an amazing job and went above and beyond to treat all of the critters there. He set bait traps, sprayed around the property both inside and out. He went thru the entire outside of the house and got rid of 50 years of cobwebs. The entire house looked amazing when he was done! I couldn’t be happier with the service from Larry’ pest control. Highly recommend! Ask for Daniel!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James was my pest technician today. He was prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. He made sure to address my main concerns (ants) and got rid of webs and wasp nests on my house. I also wanted to mention that I have had a good experience with the office staff when I call. The lady that answers is always friendly and ready to help! I’m glad I switched pest companies because Larry’s Pest Control has been great thus far!
