Termites

DIY solutions rarely work against a termite infestation. If you’re looking for effective methods for how to get rid of termites, Reliant Pest has the right expertise and tools for the job.

Common Misunderstandings

Many homeowners see a termite swarm and think it’s a one-time event. But these insects can live undetected and do damage for years. A swarm indoors is a serious sign that treatment is needed.

Why It Matters

Termites feed on cellulose materials like wood and paper. If left untreated, they can weaken structural elements of your home and lead to costly repairs.

How We Treat It

Our go-to method is HP2 injection treatment using Termidor, creating a protective barrier around the home. For certain cases, we may foam wall voids or install bait stations to eliminate colonies. We customize the treatment based on whether termites are active or it’s a preventative service.

Where Do You Typically Find Termites?

Termites can be found in structures from the ground up to the attic. In South Georgia and North Florida, they often enter through crawlspaces or cracks near foundations and silently work their way upward.

What Signs Should People Look For?
  • Mud tunnels along foundation walls or in crawl spaces

  • Dirt-filled holes in trim or drywall

  • Winged insects (swarmers), especially in spring or fall

  • Hollow-sounding wood or sagging floors
