"Randy talked me through the entire process - and coordinated with my crawl space contractor.  His folks were timely and honest - declining to add "extras" that I had expected to get hit with!  In fact, Randy's guys were neat and fast - and gave me valuable tips on keeping my home termite-free.  Etheridge was by far the least expensive of the alternatives that I investigated, but also provided some real "service" by explaining what they proposed and why, as well as what I could expect in the future.
I am a happy customer of Etheridge Pest Services, and I an happy to recommend them to anyone who needs any type of pest control!

"A young woman came to my door to offer the pest control service. I almost never  talk to door-to-door solicitors but she seemed very nice so I listened. I had been thinking of having some pest control done so it was a timely visit. She gave the "we are treating houses in the neighborhood so we have a Half price offer of $99 initial visit and $109 for follow up visits". Come to find out $99 is the going rate for any company and $109 is probably expensive. 

My main issue with this company is the price. I expect a professional  company to offer their best price first and charge the same for all households. When the  guys came to do the service they asked me "What price did you agree to for the followup visits?" I said, "Wait, I could have gotten a better price??" and one of them said rather snidely "No, you already signed your service agreement". Later I walked over to their truck to pay, and saw the printouts of the customers for two days. Each address had a price next to it, and it ranged from $99,  down to $49!! Many other them were $79. And I'm sure I could have and should have gotten a cheaper price for follow up visits. 

When dealing with a (supposed) professional company I do not expect to have to haggle over the price like it's a flea market. Give me your best price first, and charge the same for everyone. This leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth and I am sorry I went with this company. I am stuck with them for a year but will not be renewing. And that's the last time I talk to a door to door solicitor.


Bottom line: Price of service is highly negotiable - haggle with them mercilessly!!

FAQs for termite pest control service projects in Durham, NC

Most termite treatments protect your home for one to two years. Once the chemicals break down, colonies can move back in, so schedule a follow-up application before that window closes. Many pros offer ongoing service plans, but it’s smart to wait a few months to confirm the first round worked before you sign a contract. 

If your property sees repeat infestations, ask about a termite bond—an annual agreement that often covers both inspections and any additional treatments.

Drilling into the concrete foundation around your home is not always necessary for termite treatment. While drilling can be highly effective in exterminating subterranean termite colonies, there are alternative methods that work well for termite control. 

Drilling is safer than applying ground-level chemicals, which can be hazardous for children and pets, but a thorough termite treatment plan can be achieved without drilling. Consult with a termite professional to determine the best treatment method for your situation.

DIY termite treatment is possible, but its effectiveness in eliminating termite colonies is far inferior to that of professional treatment. DIY methods address only very minor infestations and do not guarantee complete termite control. 

A professional termite inspection accurately determines the infestation’s extent, and expert treatments—whether chemical or bait systems—ensure that all termite activity is eradicated and the structure is protected.

The best termite treatment is determined by the termite species, the infestation size, and your budget. Liquid termiticide applied to soil is an effective method for eliminating termites, while termite bait systems provide controlled management. 

For severe infestations, gas fumigation or heat tenting delivers thorough extermination solutions. A professional inspection guarantees that the proper treatment is selected to completely eradicate termite activity and secure your home.
