Termite Control in Poway
Protecting Your Property from Drywood and Subterranean Termites
Termites silently tunnel through wood, drywall, and structural supports, causing damage that worsens each day. Property owners throughout Poway notice the effects most during the warm, dry months, when colonies become more active in neighborhoods like those near Old Poway Park. The threat feels serious because it is. Termite activity can disrupt daily life and weaken the stability of a building if left untreated.
Kilter Termite and Pest Control provides reliable termite control services backed by over 30 years of experience. Since 1992, our team has delivered trustworthy solutions across Southern California, supporting homeowners and business owners with prompt service, effective treatments, and a solid reputation built through years of genuine customer experiences.
If you see signs of activity or suspect something is happening behind the walls, now is the time to act. Contact us at (866) 827-1727 for a free inspection.
Your Personalized Strategy Begins with a Free Inspection
A reliable termite solution depends on precise diagnosis, so every service starts with a free inspection at your property. This visit lets our technicians assess any visible damage, identify activity zones, and examine conditions that might attract termites. Homes in the area typically have stucco exteriors with wood framing, and our team understands how these construction types affect inspection methods and treatment plans.
During the appointment, we identify whether subterranean or drywood termites are causing the activity. Subterranean colonies usually appear near moisture sources, while drywood termites live directly inside the wood. Knowing the correct species helps us determine the next steps and develop a more accurate, effective plan.
Our approach focuses on trust. Recommendations are clear and straightforward, without pressure or unnecessary services. This integrity is why many property owners return year after year; they value honest guidance and reliable results.
When we finish the inspection, you'll fully understand the problem and a plan tailored specifically for your property.
Our service options include:
- Termite control for residential properties
- Termite control for commercial properties
- Kilguard™ full-home treatments
- Kilfoam™ treatments for difficult-to-reach areas
- Proactive applications that reduce the likelihood of infestation
- Prevention programs featuring periodic inspections, sealing, and protective barriers
These options offer a solution that tackles current issues while helping prevent future problems.
When Termite Issues Can’t Wait: Prompt Service When You Need It
Termites move quickly, so delays can cause problems to worsen. We respond promptly, offering same-day appointments when available and 24/7 customer support for emergencies. Property owners noticing sudden signs of activity, such as winged swarmers indoors or rapid damage to a wooden beam, often feel stressed, and swift action helps restore stability.
Our responsiveness maintains a consistent standard. Calls are answered quickly, appointments are scheduled without unnecessary delays, and treatment begins immediately after the inspection is completed and approved. Property owners trust this approach because it reduces disruption and resolves issues efficiently.
From the initial call to the final follow-up, the goal is clear: provide reliable support that helps you regain control of your space as quickly as possible.
Treatments for Drywood and Subterranean Termites
Every termite species needs the right solution, and we offer advanced treatment options designed for long-term protection. The area’s warm climate and varied elevations, from the valley floors to the hills, create ideal conditions for drywood and subterranean termites, making effective treatment essential for lasting relief.
We offer two primary treatment systems:
- Kilguard™ – A full-home treatment designed to target subterranean and drywood termites. This approach reaches deep into structural wood and offers extensive coverage for properties with widespread activity.
- Kilfoam™ – A foaming method that expands into inaccessible spaces, which is important for drywood termites that hide in cracks, corners, and tight construction areas.
All treatments are “stay-in-your-home” solutions, so residents don’t have to vacate their property or undergo tenting. This method minimizes disruption while still providing effective results.
Every termite control service comes with a 2-year warranty, providing extra confidence for local homeowners and businesses.
Protecting Your Investment Without Overspending
Termite-related structural damage can burden any property owner, especially in Poway, where property values keep rising. Protecting that investment is crucial. The proper treatment can prevent further damage and contribute to long-term stability.
We emphasize value by providing effective pest control services at competitive prices. Clients get quality work supported by a proven process, clear communication, and treatment plans tailored to the needs of each structure. This strategy helps homeowners and business owners make responsible decisions while getting strong protection without extra costs.
Prevention is also crucial. Regular inspections, barrier systems, and sealing vulnerable entry points help properties strengthen their defenses throughout the year. These measures can lower future repair costs and keep your building in better condition.
Whether your property is near the Poway Business Park or in a residential neighborhood like Green Valley, protecting its structure provides lasting value and stability.

Have Questions?
Our Team Has The Answers.

To ensure that the treatment is being done properly, the homeowner should observe the treatment process. Unless the homeowner is chemically sensitive, there should not be any adverse health problems associated with a treatment done correctly. Ask questions of the pest control technicians. Keep track of how long it takes them to do the job.
-
Termites move randomly through the soil searching for a source of food (wood). They do not have the ability to know exactly where your house is. So, if your next-door neighbor treats his home for termites, your house isn’t automatically the termites’ next lunch. No, your house does not need to be treated; but, if there are active termite infestations in your neighborhood, it is a good idea to have it inspected.
-
The best thing you can do is to be involved and observant in the inspection process. For example if you request an inspection and the inspector doesn’t inspect obvious areas such as your garage, attic, basement, etc., then you may need to consult an additional company. Don’t be afraid to ask questions.
