Frequently Asked Questions About Termites
Q: How do I know if I have termites or flying ants?
A: They look similar, but termite “swarmers” have two sets of wings that are equal in length and a thick, straight body. Flying ants have two sets of wings that are unequal in length and a pinched, narrow waist.
Q: How much does a termite inspection in Albuquerque cost?
A: Through our network, we connect you with professionals who offer a free, no-obligation quote or initial inspection. They will assess the extent of the problem and provide a detailed treatment plan and cost estimate.
Q: Is the termite control in Albuquerque & treatment safe for my pets and family?
A: Yes. The licensed professionals we partner with use EPA-approved, modern termiticides that are highly effective on termites and low-risk for people and pets when applied correctly by a trained technician. Learn More about treatment safety at the New Mexico State University Extension Service.
Q: How long does a termite treatment last?
A: A liquid barrier treatment can protect a home for 5-10 years, depending on the product used and soil conditions. Your technician will provide a warranty and recommend a follow-up inspection schedule to ensure your home stays protected.
Q: Can I treat termites myself?
A: We strongly advise against it. DIY termite treatments are rarely effective because they don’t reach the main colony. A professional is needed to apply the correct products and techniques to eliminate the entire colony and prevent re-infestation.
Q: What is a WDO Report (Wood-Destroying Organism Report)?
A: A WDO report is a specialized inspection and legal document, usually required for a real estate transaction. It’s an intensive inspection that looks for any wood-destroying organisms, including termites, wood-boring beetles, and certain types of fungi. While a standard termite inspection identifies an active infestation for treatment, a WDO report is the official document needed to buy, sell, or refinance a property. The local experts we partner with are certified to perform these and other services for optimal termite control in Albuquerque.
Q: I only see termite “swarmers” in the spring. Is the problem gone after they disappear?
A: No, this is a dangerous misconception. The swarmers are the reproductive termites leaving to start new colonies. The main, destructive colony—the one doing the actual damage to your home—is still hidden in the ground, eating 24/7. Seeing swarmers is a definite sign of a large, mature colony nearby, and you should schedule an inspection immediately, even if the swarming stops
