Termite Control FAQ — Passyunk Square
How do I know if I have termites in my Passyunk Square home?
Common signs include mud tubes on foundation walls, hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings near windows after a swarm, and bubbling paint on wood surfaces. If you notice any of these signs in your Passyunk Square home, call (267) 430-9149 for a professional inspection.
Are older homes in Passyunk Square more at risk for termites?
Yes. Passyunk Square's older housing stock — including row homes and Victorian-era structures — often has aging wood that contacts soil or has moisture damage, both of which attract subterranean termites. Annual inspections are strongly recommended for older homes.
What's the difference between termite baiting and liquid treatment?
Baiting uses slow-acting bait that termites carry back to the colony, eliminating it over 30–90 days. Liquid treatment creates a chemical barrier in the soil around the foundation. We use baiting as our first-line approach because it uses less product and achieves whole-colony elimination.
Do you offer a termite warranty in Passyunk Square?
Yes. Our termite treatments include a written service warranty with annual monitoring visits to detect any new activity. If termites return during the warranty period, we re-treat at no additional charge.
