Termite Control Tools
Professional exterminators have access to an extensive selection of highly-specialized termite control tools not available in stores. This equipment is costly and complicated, oftentimes requiring licensed operators. In addition to these efficient tools, professionals have extensive knowledge of treatment methods and safety measures.
Drywood termites nest within the wooden framework of a home. This may include wooden furniture, walls and support joists. Exterminators are sometimes equipped with tools that allow them to identify highly-infested areas without invasive procedures. These tools include infrared and microwave technologies.
Although "bug bombs" are available in stores, they are seldom capable of long-term eradication of infestations. Exterminators utilize more efficient insecticides and may make use of fumigation tents, which cover the entire infested structure in order to protect neighboring homes from the ill effects of these potent chemicals. If the infestation is less severe, exterminators use spot-treatment methods as well as heat and microwave technology to kill insects within walls.
