Termites

Termites cause billions of dollars in damages each year in the United States, even more than fires, hurricanes, and tornadoes combined. Termites are tough, determined, and highly efficient.
Subterranean termites, which are the most common in Tennessee, live in colonies as deep as 12 feet below the soil. They are usually not detected by homeowners until they swarm in early spring. By then, they have usually done some degree of damage.
We at Heritage Termite and Pest Service (HTPS) use the latest and safest methods to prevent and treat your home or business. We use non-aversive termiticides such as:
- Termidor
- Premise
These are both liquid treatments placed under the soil around your home or business. Both choices are highly effective and safe.
For the environmentally conscious, HTPS also performs termite pretreatments with Bora Care.
Bora Care is a wood treatment that not only protects your home against termites, powder post beetles, and carpenter ants but also protects your wood against moisture.
