Mud tubes on the foundation and frass near a window sill both mean the same thing: active feeding, and every week counts. Because termite damage typically isn't covered by standard insurance, catching it early is the only real safeguard.
Our inspectors carry state wood-destroying organism licensing and produce reports accepted for real estate closings.
Swarms and mud tubes jump the queue — active colonies cause damage every day they're left untreated.
You'll see the full cost tied to actual foundation length, not a phone-quote guess. We maintain a running record of every station check, which we can share whenever you'd like to review it.
Borate treatments and termiticide injection rods, not a surface spray that only repels rather than eliminates. We also carry backup moisture meters, since accurate readings separate a real diagnosis from a guess.
Worker termites carry the termiticide back to the colony, which is the point of a full perimeter trench.
Useful where trenching isn't practical — ongoing monitoring catches activity before it becomes structural.
Drywood activity doesn't touch soil, so treatment targets the specific members showing frass or kick-out holes.
Licensed documentation formatted to lender and closing timelines, delivered when your transaction needs it.
We assess joists, sill plates, and subfloor before connecting you with repair contractors. Moisture-prone crawl spaces are checked closely, since that's frequently where subterranean activity shows up before it's visible elsewhere.
New construction gets a termite barrier in place before the concrete goes down, not after. It's worth scheduling an annual re-inspection even after treatment, since grading changes can develop over time.
Tell us what you're seeing — mud tubes, swarmers, frass, damaged wood — so we send the right inspector and gear.
We inspect thoroughly, not just a visual walk-through — moisture readings catch what the eye misses.
You get a complete record, including photos of any mud tubes or damage found on-site.
Every job closes with a documented warranty and, where relevant, a station-check calendar.
Found mud tubes behind our water heater during a routine check — caught it before it reached the framing.
Needed a WDO report fast for a closing deadline. Had it in my inbox the same day as the inspection.
Bait stations checked every quarter for two years straight. No surprises, no missed visits.
They found drywood termites in a rafter we'd never have checked ourselves. Saved us a much bigger repair.
Refinancing required a current WDO report and ours had expired. They got an inspector out within two days to meet the lender deadline.
Licensed inspectors cover Eden Isle and the surrounding Eden Isle, LA region, with priority given to active swarms, mud tubes, and closing deadlines. We factor in soil conditions and tree cover across Eden Isle when scheduling routine versus priority inspections. We also track regional soil moisture trends, since drought years and wet years both shift where subterranean colonies tend to concentrate.
Subterranean colonies live in soil and travel via mud tubes; drywood colonies live entirely inside dry wood, no soil contact needed. If you're unsure whether you need prevention or active treatment, we'll help you figure out which situation actually applies.
Cost depends on foundation size and whether it's liquid barrier or bait stations, quoted in writing after seeing the property.
Most lenders require a current WDO report — we can turn documentation around fast to meet a closing deadline.
Modern termiticide treatment is built for long-term elimination, generally backed by a multi-year term.
Over-the-counter sprays usually repel locally rather than eliminate the colony, which can complicate professional treatment later. Simple changes to mulch depth or irrigation runoff near the foundation can meaningfully reduce future termite pressure.
Swarmers are reproductive termites leaving a mature colony to start new ones — a swarm usually means an established colony nearby. We recommend a yearly check-in since soil grading and mulch buildup change year to year.
A documented inspection today costs less than structural repair later.
