"I had gotten a quote from Breda a couple of months ago for termite prevention/insurance. They gave me a contract then when I called them to say I wanted the service performed, they changed the contract the day before the treatment to exclude the crawl space since it is encapsulated. When I asked the workers about it, they said we may have crickets in the crawlspace. I asked whether crickets eat wood and they said they didn't think so and so I signed the contract. (FYI: I just researched online and apparently cave crickets do chew wood and can do damage.) The workers seemed nice but didn't wear any facemasks (not even when speaking with me at close range) which worries me during COVID. Also, I had to move everything away from the inside walls of my garage so they could treat it. It wouldn't have been a big deal except that no one told me about it beforehand so my kids and I were rushing to move boxes and furniture away from the walls in real time. I'm hoping that my experience going forward with them is better since I signed a 10-year termite control. Again, the workers themselves seemed nice, clean, and professional. It seems like they treated adequately from what I can tell. I just didn't like how the contract was revised at the last minute and their reluctance to tell me about the cricket issue."

FAQs for termite pest control service projects in Athens, GA

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.
