Get It Done Right
-
Cracked Foundations
Cracks in the foundation could make it easy for subterranean termites to target your property. These termites will build their colony in the earth and create mud tunnel “highways” to reach wood as a food source in your property. If possible, it may be best to seal the cracks in your foundation to keep those termites out.
-
Low-to-the-Ground Building Façades
If you have walls whose wood structures are close to the earth, then these walls are prone to an attack from both subterranean termites and drywood termites, so you may want to have an inspector over more often than once per year. Make sure your building façades are sealed and that there's no wood components that are exposed or low to the ground. Keep fresh caulking around your windows and doors to keep insect-sized holes from forming.
-
Moisture On or Near Your Property
Arizona is arid, but termites only need a small amount of moisture to sustain a colony, even if it's only humidity in the air. Be mindful that if your property is near a source of water, termites may be more likely to start a new colony near that water source. Even if the interior of your property is humid, it may be enough to attract termites.

Termite Control Services for Phoenix Homes & Businesses
Phoenix’s warm climate and year-round irrigation mean termite activity doesn’t pause between seasons. Subterranean termites move through foundation soil and build mud-tube pathways into structures. Drywood termites enter through exposed wood, eaves, and attic vents. Each species requires a different inspection approach and a different treatment strategy, so we identify which species is present before recommending anything.
Call Arizona Termite Specialists at (602) 900-9799 for a free, no-obligation termite inspection. Same-day service is available for urgent situations.
Termidor®, Fuse & Trelona Bait Stations
We use Termidor® and Fuse for liquid termiticide treatments. Termidor® uses Fipronil as its active ingredient; Fuse combines Fipronil and Imidacloprid for an added layer of efficacy. Fipronil works through a transfer effect: termites that contact the treated zone carry the product back through the colony via normal social behavior, reaching individuals that never came near the treatment site. This makes colony-wide impact possible over time.
For properties where minimal soil disruption matters, we offer Trelona ATBS Annual Bait Stations. Termites discover the stations, feed on the bait, and carry the active ingredient back to the colony. Trelona works for residential homes, rental properties, offices, warehouses, and multi-unit buildings. Every treatment plan is customized to your property after an in-person inspection, and all treatments are applied with safety in mind for children and pets.
What a Termite Inspection in Phoenix Covers
Our inspections cover the full interior and exterior of your home: wall perimeters, closets, under bathtubs and sinks, wall cavities near ground level, the complete foundation perimeter, facade, and surrounding soil. We identify active infestation signs (mud tubes, frass, shed wings from swarmers, blistered or darkened wood) as well as conducive conditions like wood-to-earth contact, faulty drainage, grading problems, and moisture issues that invite future activity.
We routinely find infestations that prior inspectors from other companies missed. Hidden spaces, overlooked voids, and subtle early-stage signs require focused attention, and because our team works only on termites, that attention is built into every visit. Inspections are free with no obligation to proceed.

We serve residential homeowners and commercial properties throughout Maricopa County, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale, Cave Creek, Gilbert, Mesa, Peoria, Tempe, Chandler, Goodyear, and Paradise Valley.

How Can You Prevent Termite Infestations?You can take several steps to keep termites from entering your home. Be sure to keep moisture and humidity levels low around your home. Keep mulch away from your home (at least 6 inches). Keep loose wood off the ground, and keep firewood away from your home. You may also invest in preventative termite treatments if you’re concerned about termites around your property.
-
What Are Some Signs of Termites?Termites aren’t always visible when they infest a home. In fact, both subterranean and drywood termites prefer to build colonies that hide termites from view. You may notice, however, shed termite wings (a sign that a swarm has moved into your home), termite droppings (pellet-shaped droppings that resemble wood), mud tubes (which are built by subterranean termites), or darkening or blistered wood (which indicates that termites are consuming the wood). To be sure whether or not termites have infested your home, have a professional termite inspector take a look.
