Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the first signs of termites in Floydada?
Mud tubes on the foundation are the clearest sign, along with winged swarmers at the windows in the spring, discarded wings in small piles, hollow-sounding wood, and bubbling paint. Calls spike after the first warm rains.
Q: How does a baiting system work?
Stations go into the soil around the foundation, and foraging workers feed on a treated cellulose bait and carry it back to the colony. The colony thins out over weeks. Baiting suits homes where trenching the full perimeter is impractical.
Q: Do I need a termite inspection before buying a house in Floydada?
Lenders require a wood-destroying organism inspection on most sales, and buyers should order one regardless. The report documents activity and damage in the crawl space, slab edge, or framing.
Q: How long does a termite treatment hold up?
A liquid barrier stays effective for five to ten years when properly applied, and a baiting system keeps working as long as the stations are serviced. The annual re-inspection keeps the record current.
Q: Why are termites so common in Floydada?
The soil and the climate in Floyd keep the ground around foundations damp through most of the year, and the native subterranean species never get a hard winter shutdown. Swarm season peaks in the spring after warm rain.
