Treating a home that is infested with termites is quite the task. It utilizes special equipment like masonry drills, pumps, large tanks, soil treatment rods and can involve hundreds of gallons of termiticide. The termiticide is injected all along the foundation of the home under concrete slabs and within the foundation itself.

The do-it-yourself treatments more than likely will not work on a large scale such as your home. You can use them for things like mailboxes infested or maybe the sandbox.

The company you choose should be licensed by the Department of Agriculture. Companies should also be registered with the National Pest Management Association. You should call at least 2 companies before deciding whom will be treating your home. Do not be scammed by companies offering timed coupons or trying high pressure tactics to get your business. The amount of damage done while deciding on a company is minimal as termites are slow steady destroyers. Take your time and find the right company in your area for the job.

Clarksville Home Inspection is not a pest management company, but you can call for a recommendation.
