Frequently Asked Questions

What termite species are active in New York?

New York hosts subterranean termites in most regions. Coastal and southern NY also have Formosan or drywood termites - which require fumigation-class treatments rather than soil barriers. Your inspector should identify the species before recommending treatment.

Liquid barrier or bait stations?

Liquid soil treatments (Termidor, Premise) protect the perimeter and kill colony members on contact - effective for subterranean termites. Bait stations (Sentricon) eliminate the colony over months. Most NY homeowners get good results from either; the right choice depends on your home's foundation type and the inspector's recommendation.

Should I keep an annual termite bond?

Yes - an annual New York termite service contract typically costs $250-$450 per year and includes re-treatment if termites reappear. Most NY home buyers and refinance lenders look favorably on active termite bonds. Lapse on the bond is when re-infestations get expensive.
