Termite Monitoring

Effective Termite Monitoring in Florida

Termite monitoring in Florida is important even if you don’t have a current infestation, as subterranean termites can move through the soil and attack your home when you least expect them. For continued termite protection, a termite monitoring system is a low-cost, low-impact method of maintaining the integrity of your home without having to employ extensive chemical or spray techniques. Bait stations will be installed around the perimeter of your home, and termites will forage to find and eat the bait. They will unknowingly share the poisoned bait with the other termites which will cause the colony to quickly become extinct. A termite monitoring system is an important line of defense for maintained termite protection and lets Florida residents know that their homes are protected.

Our termite monitoring system uses a thermal gradient change to lure termites into a trap. Houses and trees give off a thermal gradient since the water beneath both these objects is unable to release from below. A Florida home will weep water from beneath its concrete slab every day due to temperature, especially because all Florida homes are required to have a vapor barrier to prevent this moisture from entering the home. Termites sense this thermal change, become confused looking for a wooden food source, and eventually build tubes over any concrete block walls to move near your home where the termite bait traps are placed.

As part of termite protection, our bait traps easily become that other food source and once we detect them eradication follows swiftly.
