Treatments That Pesticon Offers for Termite Control in Guelph

There are two kinds of highly effective treatments that our experts can employ for controlling the termites.

  • Altriset Liquid Termite Treatment

    It's a low-toxic treatment and will stop feeding termites within hours, minimizing the damage to your property. Our liquid termiticide Altriset eradicates termite colonies in less than three months, while the residual protection can keep your home termite-free for a long time. You can rest assured when appropriately used; it has a considerable impact on these pests.

  • Foam Treatment

    Our foam treatment method is an ideal solution to provide you with an additional layer against termite infestation. No matter where the termites are, our termite foam will quickly get into small cracks and crevices and weed them out.

We Offer a Three-Step Solution to Get Rid of the Termites Completely.

  • Step 1: Assessing the Situation

    Pesticon pest control technicians will first perform a thorough examination of your place and check for usual termite spots. The hotspots can be your basement where moisture is expected, your foundation for wood debris, and other wood structures. We deploy effective and advanced equipment to spot the signs of termites. Once we are done with the assessment, you will receive our recommendations to protect your home.

  • Step 2: Implementing the Method

    Once we uncover the termites in your home, we offer you the best solution for your problem. Altriste liquid treatment method provides immediate protection, and our foam treatment method offers an additional security layer against the termites.

  • Step 3: Doing the Monitoring for You

    After the treatment, our reliable termite control technicians will monitor your home to ensure your home is free from future signs of termite activity.

How to Spot Termites in Guelph

It is almost imperative to know the signs of termite infestation before it is too late. Therefore, it is a must that you know if termites have invaded your dwelling.

  • A winged termite flying around inside your house can be a surefire sign of a termite infestation — one that warrants immediate action.
  • Those flying termites, aka swarmers, usually come out in the spring. Strongly resembling flying ants, they have a distinct tell which is easily discernible.
  • While both flying ants and flying termites have two pairs of wings, a termite's wings will be equal in size, whereas an ant has a larger pair in front and a smaller pair behind.

Homeowner Termite Prevention Tips

The termite species most prevalent in Guelph is called the Eastern subterranean termite (Reticulitermes flavipes). These termites can cause extensive damage to dwellings if undetected and/or left untreated.

Living underground in social colonies, they are drawn to cellulose found in wood and other goods. They construct shelter tubes to bridge the gap between soil and wood, requiring continuous soil protection not to dry out.

Wood and damp environments are their ideal grounds. Therefore, you must dry out these wet areas as soon as possible to keep termites at bay.

Exterior Areas to Look for Termites

  • Is it easy to allow rainwater to drain off the roof? Do downspouts leave the base empty?
  • Does the property slope away from the structure? A possible moisture issue can be caused by grade sloping towards the structure.
  • In the basement, do any cracks exist? Is it in need of repair?
  • Do faucets leak outside?
  • Is there any contact between wood and soil around the windowsills and sill plates? Should they be reconstructed?
  • Check for other areas on the property where wood is in contact with the ground (i.e., dead trees, stumps, scrap lumber, firewood). Firewood should be put off the ground or on concrete pads.

Interior Areas to Look for Termites

  • Is the basement damp? Are exhaust fans adequately vented to the outside? High humidity can cause moisture problems which creates an ideal ground for termites to thrive and survive.
  • Adequate ventilation can reduce chances of termite infestation
  • Repairing leaking pipes is a must.
  • Running a dehumidifier can help control dampness in a basement.
