Are Termites a Problem in Phoenix?

Yes, termites are a common problem in Phoenix due to the hot, dry climate, which is ideal for certain types of termites, especially the desert subterranean termite. These termites are highly active and can cause serious damage to homes and buildings by feeding on wood and other materials.

Since Phoenix has mild winters, termites can be active year-round, making regular inspections and preventative treatments important. If left untreated, termite infestations can lead to costly structural damage, so it’s essential for Phoenix homeowners to stay vigilant and address termite issues promptly.

Termite Impact on Homeowners: Understanding the potential impact of termite infestations helps homeowners appreciate the importance of timely intervention. Beyond immediate structural damage, termites can devalue properties and lead to higher costs in repairs. Regular vigilance and a proactive approach can protect homeowners from these extensive repercussions.

How Often Should Phoenix Residents Have Termite Inspections?

Phoenix residents should have termite inspections at least once a year. Because termites are active year-round in the warm Phoenix climate, regular inspections help catch any signs of termites early before they cause serious damage.

Annual inspections by a licensed professional are the best way to protect your home, as they can spot hidden termite activity that might go unnoticed. For extra peace of mind, some homeowners in high-risk areas may even choose inspections twice a year, especially if there has been past termite activity.

Importance of Regular Inspections: Routine inspections are crucial in identifying early signs of termite activity that might otherwise be missed. Detecting issues early can prevent costly damages, making regular professional checks a wise investment for safeguarding your property.

What is Included in Our Termite Treatment Plans?

Our termite treatments include:

  • Bait stations: We strategically place Trelona® bait stations that act as an effective control measure. They attract termites to feed on the bait, which contains slow-acting poison, subsequently spreading through and eliminating the colony. 
  • Liquid barrier treatments: Our liquid treatments utilize advanced termiticide solutions to create a continuous chemical boundary around your property, providing a potent line of defense that exterminates termites on contact. 
  • Customized Care: Every property is unique, so we adapt our termite treatment strategies to specific challenges, considering both environmental factors and the extent of infestation to ensure comprehensive protection.

OUR Termite CONTROL PROCESS

  • Inspection
    First, we look for signs of termite damage or mud tunnels that indicate their activity. We'll check around your yard and the exterior of your home and, if necessary, the interior of your home as well.
  • Treatment
    Our treatments are applied directly to the afflicted areas to eliminate the source of the termites, not just the noticeable ones. These treatments may include soil injections, indoor treatment or perimeter treatments, depending on your situation.
  • Monitoring
    Our termite control services come with a two-year warranty, which you can choose to extend every year if you wish.

What Are Signs of a Termite Infestation?

Due to the fact that they are often hidden away in areas unseen, termite infestations can often go unnoticed until significant damage has been done. Homeowners may be unaware of an infestation for years, as these pests silently consume the wooden structures out of plain sight. Becoming familiar with the early warning signs of an infestation can protect your property from extensive damage. You just need to know what to look for. 

Here are some tell-tale signs of a termite infestation to watch out for:

  • Mud tubes: These pencil-sized tunnels near the foundation of your home are a highway for termites.
  • Wood damage: Look for wood that sounds hollow when tapped or that is darker or blistering.
  • Frass: Termite droppings, also known as frass, resemble small piles of pepper or sawdust.
  • Discarded wings: After termites swarm to start new colonies, they shed their wings, often leaving them near windowsills.
  • Audible clicking sounds: Quiet clicking sounds coming from the walls can indicate termite activity, as they tap their heads to send signals to the colony.
  • Doors and windows sticking: Termites often introduce moisture into the home, which may make doors and windows difficult to open. 

Preventative Measures: While recognizing the signs of a termite infestation is crucial, preventing the infestation in the first place is equally important. Ensuring regular maintenance around the home to seal cracks, manage moisture, and remove wood debris can minimize the risk of attracting termites. A proactive approach in managing the conditions of your property can significantly reduce the chances of termite invasion.

If you suspect your property is infested with termites, it's time to contact us for a professional inspection. Call Overson Pest Control at (602) 962-2272 or message us online today!

Termite Control Strategies in Arizona

Arizona's unique climate presents specific challenges and opportunities for termite management. In Phoenix, where temperatures soar and moisture levels are low, subterranean and drywood termites thrive differently. For effective management, it's vital to understand their biological behaviors and habitats. Subterranean termites often build their colonies in soil and use mud tubes to travel safely. On the other hand, drywood termites establish nests directly within the wood. Therefore, tailored strategies are crucial for effectively addressing these pests.

Adapting to Local Conditions: Phoenix's dry, arid environment necessitates adjustments in termite control. Seasonal changes influence termite behavior, making it critical to adapt strategies accordingly. Regular updates on local pest monitoring reports and climate conditions help tailor preventive and reactive measures effectively. By staying informed about the local environmental conditions and how they impact termite populations, property owners and pest control teams can develop more nuanced and successful approaches to keeping these pests at bay.

What You Should Know About Termites

Termites are small, wood-boring pests that form tunnels underground. They chew through wooden materials, typically first starting with outdoor food sources and then moving toward structures. It's because our homes and businesses provide them with a treasure trove of wood to feed on that termites are such common pests that Phoenix property owners have to contend with.

Once termites move into a yard, they can quickly cause the following problems:

  • Damage: Of course, most people already know that termites can cause serious damage. However, most people don't realize just how hidden the signs of this damage can be, which is why professional inspections offer you the best chance of catching an infestation early.
  • Harm to plant health: A termite infestation usually starts outside, meaning they will target trees, bushes, and other plants. This attack not only harms the plants themselves, but their tunnels can lead to soil collapses that create other landscaping nightmares for property owners.
  • Proliferation: Termites behave a lot like ants, dividing their tasks between workers, soldiers, and reproductive members. That means they invade in truly massive numbers, and a fast-growing colony only intensifies the other serious problems they pose.

Understanding Termite Behavior: A deeper understanding of termite behavior is essential in controlling them. They are attracted to moisture and can enter through even the tiniest of cracks. These pests work silently and in the shadows, often detected only when considerable damage has been done. By understanding how termites operate, homeowners can take pre-emptive actions to protect their properties.

Do-It-Yourself Doesn't Work

Because of these serious problems, people often try to clamp down on a termite problem by themselves right away. While this is understandable, it's not a very good way to fully eliminate your termite problem or avoid the costly damage that termites cause.

From essential oils to store-bought treatments, even effective measures likely won't address the subterranean termite colonies that are the real source of the problem. That means at-home or DIY methods are really just band-aids that cover up the problem and leave you with a false sense of security. By the time you realize you didn't fully eliminate the problem, the termite damage is likely already extensive.

Professional Solutions: Opting for professional pest control services ensures a comprehensive approach to eradicating the root of the problem. Professionals have access to commercial-grade solutions and are trained to apply them safely and effectively, providing peace of mind and lasting protection for your property.

Termite Myths & Facts

Despite their small size, termites are subject to many misconceptions. A common myth is that termites are easy to spot, yet these insects are masters of concealment. They often lurk undetected within wood and behind walls. Understanding the truth about termite habits can aid in preventing and managing infestations more effectively.

Another prevalent belief is that only older homes are at risk of a termite infestation. In reality, termites are opportunistic and can attack any structure, regardless of age. They are motivated primarily by the availability of food, moisture, and entry points, not the building's age. Dispelling these myths enables property owners to take appropriate measures to protect their investments.
