Comprehensive Termite Treatment Solutions
Southwest Exterminating delivers a full range of termite control options, including liquid barrier treatments, baiting systems, and preventive monitoring. Our team starts with a thorough inspection, identifying active colonies, entry points, and the conditions that draw termites in. Based on what we find, we recommend a custom plan that protects your property and restores your peace of mind.
Houston sits on the Gulf Coast, so frequent rain and mild winters keep the soil moist and ideal for termite colonies. We often find both subterranean and drywood termites in neighborhoods throughout the area. Because of these conditions, we tailor our recommendations to address your most common property risks. By staying current with the latest product advances and treatment strategies, we help keep your termite defenses prompt and effective.

Integrated Pest Management and Termite Control
Termites are silent yet destructive pests that can damage homes and businesses before you even notice. Controlling them takes a thoughtful, strategic approach. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) combines science, tested strategies, and sustainable practices to help eliminate termites while protecting both your property and the environment.
Tackling termites with IPM typically follows a process like this:
Step 1: Inspection and Assessment
Our team identifies activity hotspots like wooden structures, crawlspaces, and areas with excess moisture, since termites are drawn to damp, cellulose-rich materials. We use tools such as moisture meters or infrared imaging to find hidden colonies inside walls or foundations. This inspection lets us gauge the infestation and shape a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
We also check nearby landscaping, fences, and decks because these features are prone to hidden termite activity in Houston’s densely vegetated neighborhoods. Our inspections often provide early warning, giving property owners time to act before damage becomes significant.
Step 2: Monitoring and Detection Systems
Ongoing surveillance plays a key role in termite control. Installing monitoring stations around your property helps us track termite activity as it happens. These bait systems attract termites to specific spots, making it easier to target and eliminate them before they spread. This approach uses fewer chemicals and intercepts termites at their source, helping protect your home or business.
For homes built on concrete slabs, common in the Houston area, our monitoring methods detect subterranean termite activity that may travel through foundation cracks or joints. We adapt our detection process to fit your property’s design and age, so you get protection that works for your situation.
