Our Process

Our Pest Control Process In Our Process: Proven Termite Protection for Tacoma Homes

We pride ourselves on a simple, straight forward no-frills process.

01

You call, we inspect and diagnose

Our process begins with a comprehensive Peace of Mind Inspection, where a licensed professional thoroughly examines your entire Tacoma property, paying close attention to the crawlspace and foundation which are vulnerable during the wet winter months.

We search for specific evidence, like the mud tubes of Western Subterranean termites or the decaying wood that attracts Dampwood termites, allowing us to accurately diagnose the issue and map out a precise treatment strategy for your home.

02

We treat pests where they live

We then treat the active infestation using a multi-pronged approach that targets termites where they live and travel. For example, we install specialized baiting systems like Trelona ATBS around your property and apply a liquid termiticide into a trench along your home’s foundation to create a comprehensive treatment zone.

03

We report our findings, and create a plan

After completing our thorough termite inspection and treatment application, we provide you with a detailed report of all findings, including photos of termite activity, damage assessment, and the specific areas we’ve treated around your Tacoma property. We then establish an ongoing post-treatment monitoring plan that’s especially critical during December’s wet winter months when Western Subterranean termites remain active in the moist soil conditions common to the Pacific Northwest, ensuring your home stays protected year-round.

Service Types

We Offer Residential & Commercial Pest Control Options ​In Tacoma

Whether you need pest control for your home or business, we have you covered.

Residential pest control Tacoma

We protect Tacoma homes from termites using proven treatment methods tailored to the Pacific Northwest. For subterranean termites, we deploy a multi-pronged approach combining Trelona ATBS bait stations with subsoil and slab injections of professional-grade termiticide around your foundation perimeter. These products transfer back to the colony through shared travel paths, eliminating the threat at its source.

For example, we strategically place bait stations every 10 to 20 linear feet around your property to intercept active colonies before they cause serious damage. If you’re dealing with dampwood termites, common in our wet climate, we focus on removing affected wood and correcting moisture issues with localized treatments during repairs. We also offer annual monitoring services with bait stations, which is ideal for homes with prior termite activity or those in high-risk areas.

FAQs

Tacoma pest control FAQs

Questions we get from our customers' and our answers.
How much do we charge for termite treatment in Tacoma Washington?

We charge between $800 and $2,500 for termite treatment in Tacoma, Washington, depending on the size of your home and the extent of the infestation. The cost varies based on several factors including your home’s square footage, the type of termites present (Western Subterranean or Dampwood), and whether you need a one-time treatment or ongoing annual monitoring with bait stations.

During December and winter months in the Pacific Northwest, termite activity slows down significantly as these pests become less active in colder temperatures. However, this is actually an ideal time to address any moisture issues or conducive conditions in your crawlspace that attract Dampwood termites, which thrive in wet wood common to our rainy climate.

We start every termite service with a comprehensive $150 inspection that includes a full assessment of your property, attic, and crawlspace to identify the species and scope of treatment needed. For Subterranean termites, we use a multi-pronged approach with bait stations placed every 10-20 feet around your foundation plus termiticide trenching, while Dampwood termites typically require localized treatment starting at $325 along with fixing the underlying moisture problems.

Yes, we stand behind our termite treatment services with a comprehensive warranty program.

For wood-boring and powder post beetle treatments, we offer an 18-month limited re-treatment warranty that includes up to two free inspections and free re-treatment if live activity is detected during the warranty period.

While December is outside the typical termite swarm season in Tacoma (which occurs in spring and early summer for Western Subterranean termites), our warranty ensures you’re protected year-round if any activity emerges.

We also provide annual monitoring options with bait stations, which is ideal for homes with prior termite activity or those wanting ongoing peace of mind.

We typically respond to termite service requests within 24-48 hours and can often schedule your inspection within a few days of your call. During winter months like December, termite activity is less visible since subterranean termites retreat deeper underground, but this is actually an ideal time for inspection and treatment planning before spring swarms begin.

Our initial termite inspection takes 60-90 minutes and costs $150, providing you with a comprehensive assessment of your Tacoma property. We’ll examine your interior, exterior, attic, and crawlspace to identify any current activity or conducive conditions.

Once we’ve completed the inspection, we can typically begin treatment within a week, depending on your schedule and the scope of work needed. We understand that termite concerns require prompt attention, so we prioritize getting our team to your home quickly.

Yes, we offer free quotes for termite treatment in Tacoma. Our comprehensive termite inspection is $150 and includes a full 60-90 minute property assessment of your interior, exterior, attic, and crawlspace.

During the inspection, we’ll identify any termite activity, document entry points and damage with annotated photos, and provide detailed treatment recommendations with pricing. While termites are less active during December’s winter months, they can still cause damage year-round, making winter an ideal time to inspect and treat before spring swarm season arrives.

We’ll customize a treatment plan based on your specific situation, whether that involves bait stations, termiticide applications, or moisture correction. Contact us today to schedule your inspection and receive your personalized quote.

Yes, our termite treatments are safe for both children and pets when applied according to EPA guidelines. We use products like Termidor SC and Trelona ATBS bait stations that target termites specifically while minimizing exposure to your family and animals.

Once treatments have fully dried, typically within 2-4 hours, treated areas are safe for normal activity. For example, our subterranean termite treatments involve exterior foundation applications and strategically placed bait stations that pets and children won’t come into direct contact with during daily routines.

During winter months like December, termite activity slows considerably in the Pacific Northwest, making it an ideal time for preventative treatments and monitoring station placement. We always provide specific re-entry instructions based on the treatment type, and our technicians are happy to address any safety concerns you may have about your particular situation.
