If I’m still having an issue, will you come back and is there an additional charge?

If, at any time in between our quarterly visits the pests return, so will we for FREE.

What is the duration of the service agreement?

Termite Control

What type of termites are typically found in the Florida panhandle and southeast Alabama?

Eastern and Formosan subterranean termites are found in this area.

When is termite swarm season?

Swarm season typically runs from May to July, usually starting around Mother’s Day. Formosan termites may continue to swarm throughout the summer months.

How often do you monitor my Sentricon system?

Your Sentricon system is monitored at least annually in accordance with the product label. Additionally, our inspectors conduct a visual inspection of both the interior and exterior of your home annually and provide you with a report of the inspection.

Is the Sentricon bait system harmful to my family or pets?

The Sentricon system targets only the termite queen and her colony, not your home, family, or pets. The Recruit HD bait contains noviflumoron, a unique insect growth regulator that prevents termites from molting. If termites cannot molt, they die.
