Got Mud Tubes?
If you spot termite mud tunnels, you likely have an active termite infestation. It may be tempting to remove the mud tubes yourself, but destroying mud tubes will not affect the nest and may drive termites to build new tubes in harder-to-find and harder-to-treat areas of your home.
DIY pest control solutions are available at most home improvement stores, but can be expensive and come with a number of drawbacks. Store-bought termite sprays can be toxic to children, pets, and local wildlife, and are generally less effective than professional services.
To properly treat a termite infestation and prevent new infestations from forming, you need professional help. Professional pest control companies have access to tools and chemicals not available in home improvement stores, and trained and certified pest control experts know where to look and what to do to eliminate an infestation completely.
Dodson Pest Control Will Find the Source and Fix the Problem
If you already have mud tubes on or around your home, you may be facing significant structural damage to your home if the infestation is not appropriately and quickly treated. Dodson Pest Control technicians are highly familiar with various wood-destroying pests.
Our trained termite control professionals will perform a thorough inspection, looking for signs of termite damage and termite activity. Then, we will build a customized termite control plan with pesticides tailored to your
particular needs. Liquid insecticide can then be applied to the soil beneath concrete floors and/or along the entire perimeter of your property’s foundation to treat for termites and provide a protective barrier. The product is safe for children and pets, both interior and exterior, but will effectively kill termites.
