Termite Treatment
Don't displace your family by tenting your home when you can spot-treat termite damage.
- It's Safer
- It's Cost-Effective
- It's Efficient
Termite damage can be a real pain in the pocketbook.
Subterranean termites, especially the invasive exotic Formosan Termite can cause thousands of dollars of damage to homes, attics, outside decks, docks, sheds, and pretty much any area where wood structures stand.
These wood eaters, along with other wood-destroying organisms, can hinder financing when closing on a home for sale or refinancing, or worse, can cause structural issues when floorboards or roof structures are destroyed.
We can handle your termite or wood-destroying organism problem.
It all starts with an inspection and it leads to a custom treatment plan.
Tenting is a costly and disruptive method of treatment.
The first thing many people think of when they hear the word termite is the costly and disruptive method of tenting an entire house.
Tenting is an extreme measure for an extreme termite scenario – and there are often much more affordable and convenient treatments that are just as effective.
Our termite experts go the extra mile
Our termite experts go the extra mile to identify the type of termite infestation or wood destroying organism before recommending a solution.
Our treatment methods include trench and treat, foaming wall voids, Bora-Care attic treatments, and/or our Trelona Baiting System which can knock out an entire colony without displacing your family.

Our Treatment Process
When we get a termite or wood destroying organism call, we follow a step-by-step process to identify the species.

Spot Treatment
First, We Look For Entry Points
For termites, we look for points of entry signs specific to Formosans or subterranean first. Many times, we crawl through attics, use moisture detectors, and do other investigative work. We can further examine samples in our office under a microscope to confirm our findings.
Native Subterranean Termites vs. Formosan Termite
There is a significant difference between native subterranean termites and the Formosan Termite, which is an exotic import from South Asia. While all subterranean termites rely on moist soil to survive, native species must return to the soil for hydration. Formosan termites build nest boxes that store moisture, allowing them to keep working and eating without the need to return to the soil. Formosan colonies multiply at a rate of about 7-10 times as fast as the native species as well. So, they not only are more efficient, their huge numbers make short work of wood. It is estimated that a foot-long 2X4 plank can be devoured by Formosans in as little as 25 days.
Termites swarm in the late spring.
Termites are year-round pests, but spring is their primary time to reproduce. If you see a swarm, there is a good chance that there is a colony nearby that needs attention. Both types of subterraneans swarm, so Tempco’s professional termite technicians look for telltale termite signs.
- Wood droppings (termite poop)
- Wings scattered around window sills
- Mud tubes from the ground to the food source
- Wood damage

Drew came out to service my house today as I was pulling up he was all finished and got out and wanted to meet my German Shepard in the window! Great company great with dogs! Thanks drew! 🤙🏻
I have had to call Tempco Pest Control two times and I have had great service. We had a raccoon both times and this time Kevin used a different method to safely get the raccoon to leave, rather then have to be trapped. Very glad. Kevin showed up everyday, did whatever needed to be done and left. Quick and thorough. Thank you Tempco, thank you Kevin.
Kevin Mott was our technician for TEMPCO came today and did an excellent job of communicating with me as to servicing 7 houses on our street. He was polite and very thorough.

I’ve known Gary with Tempco for almost 10 years now! Best in the business. What I like best about his service , not only does he show up on time, do the best job, has very reasonable pricing, but he treats your house like it’s his own house! You know he’s going in there, checking everything and taking care of the entire property as if it’s his own place. That’s all that I can ask from anybody working on my personal property. Highly recommend.
Thanks for getting us treated so fast, much appreciated! You guys in office/field are the best!
We have had Tempco's every two month pest control for almost ten years and have always been pleased with the service and results. Our guy is awesome, polite, professional and efficient. Any time we have seen ants or another insect inside the house, they get right on it and get it resolved. All part of the plan. Thanks.
