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. Bait station monitoring logs are kept on file and available to you at any time, not just at the annual check-in.
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.
Stations placed at intervals, checked on schedule to intercept colonies before they reach the structure.
Localized injection, and structural fumigation when needed, for colonies living inside the wood itself.
We can turn around official wood-destroying organism reports fast for a closing deadline.
Photos and moisture readings document structural damage so you know the scope before repairs start. Moisture-prone crawl spaces are checked closely, since that's frequently where subterranean activity shows up before it's visible elsewhere.
Termiticide applied to soil and footings before slab pour, protecting new builds from day one. It's worth scheduling an annual re-inspection even after treatment, since grading changes can develop over time.
Location and type of sign determine whether this is a subterranean or drywood dispatch.
An inspector arrives with moisture meters and acoustic tools to confirm activity before recommending anything.
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.
We serve Scappoose and nearby communities, moving fastest for active infestations and time-sensitive real estate inspections. We factor in soil conditions and tree cover across Scappoose when scheduling routine versus priority inspections. Soil conditions shift termite activity year to year, which is part of why we adjust inspection focus based on recent regional weather patterns.
One needs ground moisture and builds visible tubes, the other nests directly inside the wood itself. 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.
A wood-destroying organism report is commonly required for financing, and we issue licensed reports formatted for that.
Non-repellent barriers typically carry a multi-year warranty, with annual re-inspection recommended.
DIY treatment often scatters the colony instead of killing it, making the eventual professional job harder. We can also advise on landscaping changes — mulch placement, irrigation adjustments — that reduce moisture conditions termites favor.
Seeing a swarm is often the first visible sign a colony has matured enough to reproduce. 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.
