This preventative termite treatment, known as pre-treat, is not a one-time application. It is done in stages from the foundation construction through the final grading of the soil around a building’s exterior. Before the concrete is poured or stem walls are backfilled, Northwest Exterminating will apply a top-quality treatment to the soil. Northwest understands there is only one opportunity to do it right, as once the slab is poured the treatment can never be duplicated. The final phase will be to treat the exterior foundation after the final grade or landscaping is complete.

University of Arizona studies show Subterranean termites are Arizona’s number one urban pest. There are 3 to 5 Subterranean termite colonies per acre in Maricopa County (Phoenix area) and 12 to 15 colonies per acre in Pima County (Tucson area) with up to 300,000 termites per colony, that is a lot of termites!

Keep moisture away 18 inches away from the foundation. This would include irrigation, grass, and plantings, and applying a gutter downspout diverter to wick water from A/C drainpipes around base of home.

Do not dig within 18” of the foundation. This would include plumbing and electrical lines, TV cables and pool lines to name a few.

We understand remodeling and upgrades may occur and offer re-treatment to affected areas at a nominal charge.
