Termite Control in Laguna Niguel 

Avoid Fumigation with the KILGUARD System 

Fumigation is the most common method for treating termites. While it’s often effective, it inconveniences and hassles homeowners. For example, you must deal with the cost of treating termites, fixing any damage they’ve caused, and paying for alternative accommodations for several days. Not to mention, fumigation can cause lasting worries about adverse effects on your family’s health. 

In most cases, we don’t need fumigation or tenting to resolve the termite infestation. Using the innovative KILGUARD system, we can directly target termites without using foul odors and fumes. Most importantly, our treatment services can keep termites from coming back. We’re confident enough in that claim that we even provide a two-year warranty upon completion of your service. 

What Are the Signs of a Termite Infestation? 

Recognizing the signs of a termite infestation early can help prevent costly repairs and protect your property. While termites work mostly out of sight, they leave behind subtle clues that should raise red flags for any homeowner. 

Contact Kilter Termite and Pest Control for a free inspection if you notice any of the following: 

• Mud tubes: These are pencil-thin tunnels that termites build to travel between their colony and a food source. You may spot them on the foundation or walls of your home.
• Discarded wings: After swarming, reproductive termites shed their wings. Piles of wings near windows or doors indicate the presence of a nearby colony.
• Hollow-sounding wood: Tap on wooden structures, and if they sound hollow or give way easily, termites may have been feeding inside.
• Frass (termite droppings): Drywood termites leave behind small, pellet-shaped droppings near infested wood. These droppings are often one of the first visible signs of their presence.
• Blistering or bubbling paint: Termites inside walls can cause moisture to build up, which leads to peeling or bubbled paint.
• Tight-fitting doors and windows: As termites damage wood, it can swell or warp, causing doors and windows to stick or become difficult to open.

If left unchecked, termite infestations can severely weaken the structural integrity of your home. Early detection is essential to minimize damage and ensure the safety of your property.
