Mud tubes on the foundation or frass near window sills both mean the same thing — termites are actively feeding, and every week matters. Because termite damage typically isn't covered by standard homeowners insurance, catching it early is the only real safeguard against a costly repair bill.


Our inspectors hold state wood-destroying organism (WDO) licensing and produce documentation accepted for real estate transactions.
Swarms or mud tubes get priority scheduling — we know active subterranean colonies cause damage every day they go untreated.
Treatment quotes are based on measured foundation perimeter and infestation type, given to you in writing before work begins.
Our equipment includes borate wood treatments, termiticide injection rods, and monitoring stations for long-term colony elimination. We also provide a moisture map of the foundation area, since moisture readings often predict where future termite pressure is most likely.
We trench and treat the full foundation line so worker termites carry the termiticide back to the colony itself.
Bait stations give ongoing colony-level monitoring, useful for properties where liquid trenching isn't practical.
Drywood colonies live inside the wood itself, so treatment targets the specific members showing frass or kick-out holes.
Licensed inspection documentation formatted to lender and closing requirements, delivered within the timeline your transaction needs.
Beyond treatment, we assess joist, sill plate, and subfloor damage so you know the full scope before repairs begin.
Termiticide soil treatment applied before slab pour, protecting new construction from day one. Every crew also carries backup moisture meters, since accurate readings are what separate a real diagnosis from a guess.

Tell us what you're seeing — mud tubes, swarmers, frass, or damaged wood — so we schedule the right inspector and equipment.
We show up equipped to inspect thoroughly, not just visually scan — moisture readings catch what the eye misses.
The full foundation perimeter and accessible wood members are inspected, with findings documented in a written report.
Every treatment includes a documented warranty term and, where applicable, a station-check schedule going forward.
Found mud tubes behind our water heater during a routine check. Inspector caught it before it reached the framing.
Needed a WDO report fast for a closing deadline. Report was in my inbox the same day as the inspection.
Bait stations have been checked every quarter for two years now, exactly as scheduled. No surprises.
They found drywood termites in a rafter we never would have checked. Saved us from a much bigger repair later.
Refinancing required a current WDO report and ours had expired. They got an inspector out within two days to meet the lender deadline.

Licensed inspectors cover Collinsville and the wider Collinsville, IL region, with scheduling priority given to properties showing active swarms, mud tubes, or real estate transaction deadlines. Older Collinsville neighborhoods with mature tree cover tend to carry higher subterranean termite pressure, which shapes how we prioritize inspection requests.

Subterranean termites live in soil and travel via mud tubes into structures; drywood termites live entirely inside wood, requiring no soil contact.
Cost varies by foundation size and whether liquid barrier or bait stations are used; we quote in writing after seeing the property.
A wood-destroying organism report is commonly required for financing; we issue licensed reports formatted for that purpose.
Modern termiticide treatments are designed for long-term colony elimination, generally backed by a multi-year warranty.
Over-the-counter sprays typically only repel termites locally rather than eliminating the colony, which can make the infestation harder to treat professionally later.
A swarm event signals the colony has matured enough to reproduce, which is often the first visible sign homeowners notice. It's also worth scheduling an annual re-inspection even after treatment, since new conducive conditions like grading changes can develop over time.
Whether it's mud tubes, swarmers, or a closing deadline, we can get an inspector out fast.
