Pests We Treat Photo Album: Termites Coming Out of the Sheetrock in Howell, NJ

Termite Damage Along the Walls

As we inspected the living room, we found multiple areas of the walls that were damaged by the termites.

Coming from the Sheetrock

We actually found active subterranean termites inside the sheetrock! While their primary food source is cellulose found in wood, termites will also consume the paper facing of drywall because it contains cellulose.

Drill Into the Area

With the owner's permission, we drilled into the walls and injected a foaming termiticide. After that, we injected a liquid termiticide around the entire exterior of the home.

Both Versions Are Effective

Both versions of the termiticide binds to the treated areas and creates a protective zone that the termites can't detect. As the termites go about their business, they'll come in contact with the treatment and bring it back to their colony.

Works Fast

The termites will then transfer the applications, unknowingly, throughout their colony. The termiticide then rapidly spreads throughout their nest and, in short amount of time, the termites will be exterminated!
