"I had a squirrel problem under a window soffit. The squirrels made a hole and the soffit was tearing down. I called several wildlife removal companies as I had a contractor come and wouldn t do the work cause he was scared of a squirrel. As soon as Wills affordable pest service came out, Terry explained the options and price and pulled down the window soffit right away. There were no squirrels and contractor was here about an hour before him. Though their were nests. The area was sweeped and everything was pushed out of the way. I am so thrilled right now. I recommend them. Thank you for good customer service."

FAQs for termite pest control service projects in Dover, DE

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.
