Screaming about termites does not help; nor will half-measures. Termite treatments like spraying insecticides also do not help since they provide just temporary relief; the termite is too tenacious a creature.

One inch of mud tunnel per hour, that is how fast termites build their way into your office or home. At least those of us, who have had the horror of finding the whole office ridden office on Monday morning, though it was all spick on span just the Friday evening, know how troublesome termites are.

What you need is literally a ground-up approach. Comprehensive termite treatments for the foundation, around windows and not to forget the plumbing is necessary to get rid of the problem for a long time and protect your wood, clothes and health.

Commercial pest control methods involve applying anti-termite product immediately below the foundation and to the areas surrounding it.  Special foam is also applied to fissures and cracks or voids running between the walls; this seals the area effectively and barricades termites. The results last long and are effective since termites are eliminated just as they pass through the treated area.

Treating all the plumbing connections and areas is where the trick lies, since termites find the wet and moist conditions cosy and thrive very well. For this, you have to remove the carpets around the wet bar, drill holes surrounding the plumbing and apply the wall foam and anti-termite products. Once the treatment is done, make sure that the drilled holes are sealed properly, before moving to the outside of the house and repeat the process.

The hitch in all this is the process appears cumbersome. To carry out proper termite treatments, you need drills, equipment to inject foam and anti-treatment products, and of course someone to help with pulling back carpets, opening plumbing manholes and so on. Perhaps, it is better to hire a reliable company offering commercial pest control services. Dallas Fort Worth metroplex and neighbourhood areas do have competent firms taking care of termite treatments.

The commercial pest control company has two things that most of us do not normally have – experience and equipment. Don't choose an outfit that takes a day to visit for inspection – it is a sure sign that the team will take weeks to complete a simple job.

Select a best business bureau member company that employs licensed for anti-termite treatments and whose people listen patiently even after hours.

Why should you eradicate termites? You can avoid the awkward half-eaten doors and furniture. If you don't spend on termite removal, may be you would spending on replacing damaged doors, furniture, kitchen cabinets and so on.

Something more important – you will have a cleaner and healthier home/office if you get termite treatments done.
