Termite Exterminators – Control & Removal
Louisiana Termite Control Services
Serving Franklinton | Tangipahoa | Saint Tammany | Livingston | East Baton Rouge | West Baton Rouge | New Orleans
If you’re seeing signs of termite activity, our team is ready to help. Our licensed termite exterminators in Louisiana begin with a comprehensive inspection to locate active colonies and identify conditions that make your home vulnerable to infestation. From there, we create a tailored termite control strategy for you, with cutting-edge termite treatments and advanced baiting systems.
Termites work nonstop, hollowing out wood from the inside while everything appears normal on the surface. And most homeowners insurance policies don’t cover termite damage. That's why professional termite control is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your home.

Which Termite Treatment Is Most Effective for You?
The most effective termite solution depends on your home’s structure, environmental conditions, and inspection results. Your technician may recommend one or more proven treatment options tailored to your situation.
Termite Baiting Systems
Termite baiting systems are designed to target active colonies while helping prevent future infestations.
Our technicians install discreet, low-profile bait stations around your home’s perimeter, intercepting termites as they forage. Once termites feed on the bait, they carry it back to the colony and the Queen. The control agent then spreads throughout the colony, working to eliminate it while maintaining protection.
Liquid Applications
Liquid termite treatments create a protective barrier in the soil surrounding your home, stopping subterranean termites before they reach the structure.
We trench around the foundation and apply the liquid treatment before restoring the soil. If needed, concrete surfaces such as driveways, patios, or slabs are drilled to ensure complete coverage. Termites that contact the treated zone carry the control agent back to the colony, leading to elimination.

Louisiana Termite Control FAQs
Below you’ll find some of the questions about termite control our technicians get asked most often. If you don’t find your answer here, feel free to reach out to speak with an expert – or schedule service.
How long does a professional liquid termite treatment typically remain effective in Louisiana's humid climate?
Professional liquid soil barriers are rated to remain effective for approximately 5 to 10 years. However, Louisiana’s intense humidity, high soil moisture, and heavy rainfall can degrade chemical barriers faster than in drier climates. Annual inspections are essential to verify that the soil barrier remains intact and to touch up high-exposure areas before subterranean termites find a gap in your protection.
Are the liquid treatments and perimeter bait stations safe for children, pets, and home gardens?
Yes. Modern liquid termiticides are injected deep into subterranean soil trenches or beneath concrete slabs, keeping them away from human and pet contact once dry. Perimeter bait stations use tamper-resistant, heavy-duty caps that sit flush with your lawn, ensuring kids, pets, and lawnmowers cannot open or disturb the internal bait.
What is the difference between your free termite inspection and an official real estate WDO inspection report?
In basic terms, a free termite inspection is for your own knowledge of active termite issues in your house. A WDO Report is an official document that’s used to verify current or past wood-destroying organism activity in your home to get everyone on the same page before a real estate transaction.
Free Termite Inspection: A detail-oriented visual check designed to locate active colonies, identify structural vulnerabilities, and generate a customized treatment plan for your home.
Official Real Estate WDO Report: A paid, standardized inspection with documentation on official state forms required by mortgage lenders and title companies during property transfers, detailing past damage, active wood-destroying organisms, and historical treatment records.
Will residents or pets need to vacate the home during the liquid trenching and application process?
In nearly all cases, no. Because liquid treatments are applied outdoors in soil trenches or drilled under exterior slabs, you can comfortably remain inside during the appointment. Technicians simply request that children and pets stay indoors until any exposed exterior application zones have fully dried.
How do severe weather events, heavy rain, and local flooding impact liquid soil barriers and bait stations?
Once liquid termiticides cure, they bind tightly to soil particles and do not wash away in standard rainfall. However, severe flooding or storm surges can erode treated topsoil or deposit fresh, untreated silt over your barrier, creating entry pathways for termites. If your yard experiences standing floodwaters or major soil washouts, a post-storm re-inspection is recommended to re-establish compromised barrier zones.
What immediate actions should I take if I spot active termite swarmers inside my home today?
Vacuum, don’t spray: Vacuum up active insects and immediately empty the canister into a sealed outdoor trash bag. Avoid using aerosol bug sprays—they cause termites to scatter, splitting the swarm and making them harder to isolate.
Save a sample: Place a few discarded wings or insects in a sealed ziplock bag for your technician to verify the exact species.
Pinpoint the exit: Mark the wall, window sill, or baseboard seam where you see insects emerging.
Call for immediate service: Contact a licensed technician right away to locate the hidden subterranean colony feeding the swarm.
How long do termite treatments take to work?
Termite control timelines vary depending on the treatment method selected, the size of the subterranean colony, and seasonal foraging behavior:
Liquid Soil Applications: Liquid termiticides establish an immediate protective barrier around your foundation, stopping foraging termites upon contact. While physical entry is blocked right away, full colony elimination typically occurs over several weeks as exposed workers carry the active agent back to the nest.
Termite Baiting Systems: Perimeter baiting targets the colony’s lifecycle. Because termites must locate the stations, feed on the bait, and share it with the Queen, complete colony collapse generally takes between 60 to 90 days. Larger or multiple established colonies may require additional time for full eradication.
