In many areas of Greater Los Angeles subterranean termites started swarming. If you see flying small black termites with gray wings bigger than thorax and equal size, there is no need to get upset and think it will need a speedy remedy. You can clean them by spraying with Windex or even water. As a rule, swarming termites are a sign of termite infestation on the structure. This means that they may be eating and damaging the structure. We offer free complete termite and other wood destroying organisms inspections There may be other issues too. There is no need to call a termite company just to kill or clean these flying termites, it will mean he did literally nothing. Termites are already dead or will be in an hour or so, and whoever cleans your house can also clean them too.

Fumigation is the most common method used for eliminating Drywood Termites.  The process is normally a 3-day & 2-night event.  Day 1 involves sealing the structure by tenting and introducing gaseous pesticides (fumigants – sulfuryl floride – Vikane or Zythor) to suffocate or poison the pests inside.  The sealed environment is aerated to allow the fumigant gas to percolate throughout the space for a set period of time to terminate any infestations.  On Day 2, the space is ventilated to remove the poisonous gas, making it safe for re-entry.  The tent is removed on Day 3 and the air quality is tested to ensure it is safe before allowing access.  Once the air quality is determined safe, a sign will be posted on the front door indicating safe entry.

 

During the fumigation process, the sealed premises must be vacant as the fumigants pumped into the sealed environment are very toxic to humans and pets.  All food items must be double bagged.  We will provide complete instructions. 

 

This method can also be used to kill Bedbugs and Powder Post Beetles.  Contact us for more information.

 

Fumigation is the best method for eliminating Drywood Termites. However, if for some reason, you are unable to fumigate or prefer a more natural solution, we also specialize in a more eco-friendly, pet-friendly Full Foam Treatment.  Some clients are opting to use this more GREEN method of eliminating termites.

Termidor Subterranean Termite Control

As a Termidor Registered and Certified Partner, Prime Termite prides itself for conducting the highest possible quality Perimeter Plus treatments. This treatment against subterranean termites includes, but is not limited to, creating a Termidor barrier around the structure, and treating other areas by using inspection tools for better results. It includes using different concentrations and a mixture of this leading termite control material, which is the most highly regarded among serious termite control professionals. After Perimeter Plus, we register the structure online on the manufacturer’s Web site, which guarantees it for 10 years! For subterranean termites the traditional treatment we use is the best in the world – Termidor.

For some types of structures we also combine Termidor with natural foaming such as Boracare and/or Timbor foaming so we can offer our wood damage warranty against subterranean termites which are much rarer than drywood termites. With this treatment, you get the most from your investment. You can’t go wrong choosing our complete Termidor treatment, irrespective of whether you use it for extermination purposes or for preventing the structure from present or future infestation against the most devastating termites. However, please also note we have the green alternative to Termidor Perimeter Plus.

Drywood Termite Treatments

Fumigation using only Vikane, not a generic alternative, and fumigators being certified by Dow AgroSciences which is quite rare in Los Angeles area

Fumigation is one of the most common drywood termite treatments, and if it is done properly, it can ensure complete elimination. It should be noted though that fumgiation has no preventative effect, meaning it cannot prevent from future infestations. Fumigations are done by using the best fumigant available – Vikane. Simultaneously, we acquaint homeowners with the safety aspects of termiticide usage and advise them of further aeration or prolonged absence if needed. Even though informally we do not recommend fumigation in case there are elderly, youngsters, and people with health issues in the household, it is nevertheless a common method during home buying and selling transactions. Homeowners complains about health-related issues right after the fumigation. However, we also offer complete green and even no-chemical alternative of fumigation.

 

 

Traditional termite treatments such as fumigation are effective but extremely toxic. In recent years, consumers are demanding a more eco-friendly termite treatment which is just as effective. Prime Termite has been a fore runner in using “green” termite treatment. During the onsite inspection, our experienced inspectors will detect and identify termite damage in your home or business. We use the most effective and eco sensible treatment such as BoraCare to eliminate termites. Finally, wood members are sprayed with natural termiticides to prevent future infestations.

You can rest assured that when Prime Termite recommends green termite treatments or natural termite control – it is 100% natural and environmentally safe for the family as well as pets. Prime Termite offers the same warranties for our complete green termite treatments because it is as effective as any other treatments available. Other local termite companies have yet to match our level of expertise and environmentally safe practices.

In addition, our green termite treatments are not only effective against subterranean and dry wood termites but also against other wood destroying organisms – fungus, powder-post beetles, and carpenter ants. Over the years we have developed proprietary termite treatment techniques and methods which allow our crew to achieve the highest possible quality of work. If you want to go green in regards to termite and other wood-destroying organisms treatments, we ARE the ultimate green termite treatment company in Greater Los Angeles area as well as in most cities in Southern California.

Bora-Care Termite Treatment

 

Prime Termite offers completely natural termite control while offering the same warranties for our green treatments due to their prevention capabilities.

Subterranean & Drywood Termite Green Treatments

Bora-Care Foaming directed to the entire structure

Bora-care is an outstanding termite control product that has an excellent reputation among serious termite control professionals. It is produced by Nisus Corporation after years of extensive research and development requiring significant investments. Bora-Care is not a “who knows what invention” by a small, local termite company, which neither has sufficient research and development investment means nor is a professional termiticide-producing organization. This is why other natural termite control manufacturers (usually just small local termite companies) often try to promote their products with unsubstantiated and exaggerated claims. Bora-Care produces great results while conducting foaming on the exterior and interior structures. Prime Termite uses the best state-of-the-art equipment available on the market, much better than what you can see in the manufacturer’s video above. Our equipment quality, combined with telescoping and infraRED tools, means excellent results.  By collaborating with our customers, we also cut the cost of this expensive material as well as labour expenditure with our efficient and detailed organization of the jobs.  We have spent close to six figures on software development partially because of this.  With our very reasonable pricing, you will get unsurpassed value for your investment, which will protect your property as long as it exists.

Drywood Termite Green Treatments

Thermigation – Heat-Plus Treatment for Drywood Termites

Complete Heat or Thermigation is similar to fumigation when all wooden parts of a structure are treated by reaching all dry wood termites. During fumigation, this is achieved by introducing sulfur fluoride, but by using complete heat it is accomplished by increasing the temperature to a level at which dry wood termites cannot survive. In both cases, the structure is sealed to block fumigant or excessive heat escaping through a tent or other alternative ways. Complete Heat or Thermigation is the only alternative to fumigation capable of eliminating all dry wood termites. In addition, it has one great advantage – it is a completely green treatment that does not involve any chemicals, even organic and natural ones.

Drywood termite infestation intensity is based upon the closeness to the Pacific Ocean.

Before Termidor was the king or Termite control, now it’s Altriset – effectiveness combined with close to being harmless

Gone are the days when pest and termite control operators had to sacrifice performance and effectiveness in exchange for as less as possible adverse effect to workers, homeowner and environment. By  implementing Altriset subterranean termite highly effective but also virtually harmless to humans and environment extermination method with natural borates we have one of the best methods available. In case of extensive infestation and damage by subterranean termites, especially where there are suspected possible hidden damages in inaccessible areas generous amount of Altriset combined with proper techniques of treatment should ensure proper control. If applied properly and directed to entire structure this method of subterranean termite control will also prevent from future infestations around 10-15 years. In addition, if extensive foaming will be done by either Bora-Care or Timbor-Professional, then preventative effect on applied areas will be much more. Just the fact that after 10-12 years of service we do not have many call backs from this treatments proves this point.
