Accurate Termite Inspections

A termite inspection is based upon the observations, experience, knowledge, and opinions of the termite inspector. The inspector will view all visible and accessible areas looking for evidence of termites in areas that are conducive to a termite infestation. This normally includes the basement, sub-structure, slab, garage, and the outside of the structure. Some of the signs of termites are shelter tubes, damaged wood, or evidence of a termite reproductive flight.

If there is no evidence of termites, Parkway will issue a one-year service agreement, simply stating that if termites appear within a year of the inspection, Parkway Pest Services will perform remedial termite control measure within the affected area at no charge to the property owner.

If evidence of termites is found, Parkway’s inspector will recommend the most logical, proven, cost effective pest control measure to control the termite infestation.

Effective Termite Control Methods

There are two basic options that are available to control termites, and your inspector will customize a plan including one or both methods based on your specific situation.

Traditional Method

The conventional method of termite control includes the use of termiticides. The pesticide is introduced to the soil surrounding the structure. This places a protective chemical barrier around the structure to prevent termites from entering or exiting the structure. Unfortunately, this is extremely invasive to the structure as it involves drilling and soil movement; however, it is extremely effective.

Termite Baiting Systems

The other method of termite control is the use of termite baits. Using this method, the technician strategically places termite bait stations around the structure. The bait is found by termites that are foraging for food, and is carried back to the rest of the colony, resulting in the demise of the entire colony. The bait stations are inspected and checked periodically to determine the areas the termites are active. Parkway uses the Sentricon® Colony Elimination System. Along with effectively helping you get rid of termites, the Sentricon® System is the "green" choice for termite control because:
