Our Process
Great Falls & Potomac Corridor Expertise
We understand the termite risks specific to Great Falls — from stream valley moisture along Difficult Run and Captain Hickory Run to the aging basements in estates built in the 1970s and 1980s on large wooded lots.
78-Point Inspection
Our licensed technicians check mud tubes, crawlspaces, foundations, and wood-to-soil contact points. On Great Falls' half-acre to multi-acre lots with mature trees and outbuildings, these entry points are common and easy to miss.
Sentricon Colony Elimination
Bait stations go around your perimeter. Workers carry the bait back to the queen. This takes out the whole colony at its source, not just blocks termites at a barrier they can route around.
Year-Round Monitoring
Annual inspections and continuous Sentricon monitoring catch activity before it becomes costly damage. Free callbacks mean we come back until the problem is handled.
