How Our Local Pest Pros Exterminate Termites

Termite Inspection

When you reach out to Miller Pest & Termite for help getting rid of termites, we'll send out a highly trained and fully licensed pest control specialist to complete a detailed termite inspection of your property to identify:

  • Active termite infestations
  • Termite damage
  • Conducive condition
  • Possible entry points

Termite Treatment

After the inspection, your termite exterminator will install the Sentricon® System around the perimeter of your structure in order to create an "invisible" barrier that stops wood-destroying termites from reaching your home.

What's more, this termite baiting and monitoring solution not only eradicates termites foraging on your property; it wipes out the entire termite colony below ground when workers carry the bait back on their bodies. Once exposed, termites don't stand a chance - even the queen!

Once your Sentricon® bait stations are installed, we'll send an exterminator to inspect your stations once a year to ensure they're working correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Termite Control FAQs

What are the signs of termites and termite damage?

Depending on where you live and current conditions, they may be attracted to or already nesting in your home. Signs of termites to keep an eye out for include: 

  • A large number of swarmers (winged termites) found in your home
  • Mud tubes on the foundation, by doors, and windows
  • Small holes in drywall or wood
  • Wood that crumbles easily because of apparent damage
  • Sagging floors, soft spots on walls, and cracked plaster

Many times, termites may be difficult to find until it's too late. Have one of our trained exterminators inspect your home to locate hidden problems you may not be aware of.

When do termites swarm?

In the Midwest, termites typically swarm in April, May, or June. That doesn't mean these pests aren't active all year long. Unless you live in Alaska, your home is at risk for termite activity, no matter the season. 

How does the bait in Sentricon eliminate termite colonies and how long does it take to work?

The bait attracts termites and acts as an alternative source of nutrition for them. The scavenging termites will then take the bait back to their colonies and feed it to the rest of the colony. The formula in the bait stops their ability to molt, which in turn eliminates the entire colony. 

It will take a few weeks for them to find and distribute the bait from the stations. Then, the elimination of the colony depends on a few varying factors and could take anywhere from 4 weeks to 3 months to fully eliminate the entire colony.

What if my neighbors have termites and install Sentricon, is my home protected?

If your neighbors have reported termites in the area, your home may be at risk. Since termite colonies are located underground, it’s impossible for you to detect one before it’s too late. Professional, preventative termite treatments are the best way for your home to stay termite-free. 

Your neighbor's Sentricon® will not help eliminate the colonies around your home either as the system can only eliminate colonies where it is installed. It is entirely possible that there are many colonies foraging in your neighborhood that could infest your home. 

When termites have been eliminated, do I need to keep the Sentricon system?

Yes, the Sentricon® system stays in the ground in order to protect your home against any future infestations.

Does Sentricon attract termites to my home?

No, Sentricon® will not attract them to your home. These stations act as an alternative source of food for termites, so if there are any in your area they will find the bait station, bring it back to their colonies and their colonies will be eliminated.

Is it okay for my kids and pets to play near the stations and what happens if my pet eats one?

Yes, the Sentricon bait stations are family and pet-friendly.

The quantity of active ingredients in each bait station is so small that your pet would need to ingest approximately 200 of the bait station inserts — which is simply impossible — before becoming sick.
