Frequently asked questions
Is the termite inspection in Coral Springs really free?
Yes. The standard termite inspection is free, and you get a written quote with treatment options. The one exception is an official WDO real-estate report for a home sale or closing. That is a separate paid service, quoted on request.
Do I have to tent my house for termites?
Not always. Tent fumigation is one option for drywood termites and a separate option for Formosan termites. Localized drywood activity may be handled with a spot treatment or a drywood bond. Subterranean termites, including Formosan, can be handled with a baiting system, and Formosan termites also have a liquid soil treatment option. The inspection determines which methods fit your home.
How long do I need to leave my home for fumigation?
The typical vacate period is two nights and three days. Weather, foam-insulated attics, and the size and layout of the home can make it longer. No one may go back inside until the licensed fumigator tests clearance levels and posts a written clearance notice.
Does the termite warranty cover damage repair?
No. None of our termite agreements pay for wood repair or replacement. Depending on the method, coverage means re-treatment, further liquid treatment, or baiting system service during the term. Formosan fumigation has no warranty at all.
Can I transfer my termite coverage if I sell my Coral Springs home?
Drywood bonds, drywood fumigation, Formosan liquid treatment, and the baiting agreement can transfer to a new owner if written notice is given within thirty days of closing. Drywood spot treatment coverage cannot be transferred, and Formosan fumigation has no coverage to transfer.
