Termites in Tampa, Florida
The two types of termites that can cause extensive structural damage in Tampa, Florida are the drywood termites and subterranean termites.
Termite Treatment in Tampa: What to Expect
According to the US Department of Agriculture, each year termites cost consumers more than $2 billion for controlling termites and repairing termite damage. NaturZone has a comprehensive termite control program to protect your greater Tampa area home and business from these pests.
- Total Termite Treatment Protection Plan: For one low fee you can have both drywood and subterranean termite coverage for your property.
- Borate treatment: The unfinished wood can be protected from all types of termites, wood-destroying beetles, mold and fungus through the application of a borate product. This will kill existing termite infestations to accessible wood and prevent future infestations to the treated areas (normally attic and crawl spaces).
- Subterranean termite prevention and curative treatments: We provide both liquid and Sentricon termite baiting services.
- Drywood termite fumigation referral program: Sometimes environmental factors such as type of construction combined with the extent of drywood termite infestation require tent fumigation to eliminate hidden termite colonies that spot treatment will not cure.
