Termite types in Southern Arizona
Knowing which termite you have changes the treatment. The University of Arizona distinguishes three: subterranean termites (the most common around Tucson, nesting in soil and building mud tubes up to your foundation), drywood termites (living inside the wood itself), and dampwood termites — and dampwood activity often signals a water leak or wood decay worth fixing. The same guidance is blunt about DIY: over-the-counter termite products are rarely effective on an established colony. An inspection tells us what you’re dealing with before anyone quotes a treatment. Looking for termite treatment Tucson homeowners trust? Our licensed team tailors the right approach for your property.
Treatment options + warranty
Liquid barrier (most common)
Technicians trench around the foundation and drill or inject termiticide under slabs and pavers to create a continuous chemical zone that kills on contact. It clears an active infestation fast — often within about 7 days — and the barrier lasts 5–12 years. It’s more labor up front (hours of trenching and drilling), and it’s typically sold with a renewable warranty.
Bait system
In-ground stations placed around the structure let termites feed on bait that they carry back to wipe out the colony. Less invasive, no trenching, but it works over weeks to months and relies on ongoing monitoring.
Spot / fumigation
Localized spot treatments handle small, contained drywood pockets; whole-house tenting is reserved for heavy drywood infestations. We recommend the least invasive option that actually solves the problem.
Free inspection offer
Every termite job starts with a free inspection. We check the foundation, slab penetrations, and likely entry points, show you what we find, and give you a written estimate with your options and the warranty terms — no pressure.
One-time treatment vs. ongoing protection
One-time barrier
Solves the active infestation; the warranty covers re-treatment if they come back.
RECOMMENDED
Annual monitoring / renewal
Keeps the warranty active and catches new activity early — cheap insurance against five-figure structural damage.
