Termites cause over $5 billion in damage annually across the Southeast, and Tampa's warm climate makes our area particularly vulnerable. Our thorough inspections identify both subterranean and drywood termites - the two species common to Hillsborough County.
Using moisture meters and infrared cameras, we examine your home's most at-risk areas: where wood meets soil, around plumbing penetrations, and under pier-and-beam foundations common in historic districts. We also check for frass (termite droppings) in attics - a telltale sign of drywood termites in older homes.
Every inspection includes a detailed report with photos and recommended next steps. If we find activity, we'll explain your treatment options without pressure, whether it's localized spot treatment for early detection or full-structure fumigation for advanced infestations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should Tampa homes be inspected for termites?
Annual inspections are recommended, especially for homes built before 1980. Properties with previous termite activity or wood siding should consider bi-annual checks.
Can I get termites in my Tampa condo?
Yes - high-rises aren't immune. We frequently find drywood termites in window frames and balcony supports of waterfront condos, carried in by coastal winds.
