Discarded wings near a window in spring is a termite swarm, not flying ants, and it means a mature colony is already established somewhere in the structure. Termite damage isn't covered by most homeowner insurance policies, which makes early detection in Highland-on-the-Lake properties a real financial issue, not just a cosmetic one.
A full inspection includes a wood-destroying organism report suitable for real estate closings, at no charge.


Every technician performing Highland-on-the-Lake termite inspections carries state licensing for wood-destroying organism reporting.
Swarm season calls get priority scheduling since active swarmers mean a mature colony needs attention quickly.
You'll see one written quote before any termiticide is applied — no per-visit billing surprises.
We use moisture meters, sounding hammers, and sometimes thermal imaging to find damage hidden behind finished walls.
Subterranean colonies travel through soil, so barrier treatment is mapped around the entire structure's perimeter.
Stations use a slow-acting bait that colony members share, which can eliminate the nest rather than just the visible tubes.
We identify drywood frass (small pellet droppings) to pinpoint exactly which framing member needs treatment.
We provide a full written wood-destroying organism report accepted by most lenders as part of closing documents.
Moisture meters and sounding tools help us map the extent of existing damage before recommending repairs.
Commercial properties get scheduled monitoring and renewal treatment under a documented termite protection plan.

Tell dispatch whether it's a swarm sighting or existing damage; swarm calls get expedited scheduling.
Our mobile units carry both liquid termiticide and bait station equipment for Highland-on-the-Lake termite calls.
Inspection results in a written treatment plan and price, whether that's a liquid barrier or bait station system.
