Termite Treatment in Boca Raton Starts With Knowing Which Termite You Have

If you want termite treatment in Boca Raton, first find out which termite is in your home. South Florida homeowners can face more than one kind. Drywood termites live entirely inside the wood they eat. Native subterranean termites and Formosan termites are both subterranean species. Each group calls for a different method, and a treatment that works on one may do nothing against another.

That’s why On Demand Pest Control starts every Boca Raton termite job with a free inspection. Our inspector looks at the accessible areas of your home, identifies the termite type, and gives you written options for that species. We won’t push you into tenting a house that only needs spot work. We also won’t sell you a bait system for drywood termites, which that system doesn’t control.

Our termite treatment lineup has seven services. They include one-year and three-year drywood termite bonds, spot drywood treatment, whole-house drywood fumigation, Formosan fumigation, liquid Formosan treatment and a termite baiting system. The baiting system covers native subterranean and Formosan termites. You choose from these options once we know what you have, and no home gets all of them. Each service has its own written agreement, so you know what it covers before any work starts.

Tenting, Spot Injections and Bait Stations: What the Work Involves

Each termite method looks different on your property. Bond work can include attic treatment, spot injections or radius treatment, and it requires attic access. Spot treatment targets only the specific areas listed in your agreement. Fumigation covers the whole house in tarps. You complete a preparation checklist, leave the home and wait for posted clearance. Installing bait stations means drilling and digging in the soil around your home’s perimeter, which can disturb sod and nearby hardscape. Liquid Formosan treatment involves trenching and drilling near the foundation. Drill holes are patched but stay visible. Your inspector will explain what your chosen method involves before you schedule it.

When Termites Swarm in Boca Raton: Florida Flight Seasons by Species

Winged termites, called alates, leave mature colonies on dispersal flights to start new ones. These flights are often called swarms. University of Florida IFAS research shows that the timing depends on the species, so there is no single termite season:

  • Formosan termites: usually swarm from early April to late June, shortly after sunset, with peak activity in May. A flight can hold tens of thousands of termites. When a structure is infested, swarms can happen indoors.
  • Native subterranean termites (Reticulitermes): Florida has three species, and each flies at a different time. R. hageni flies from early December to early February, in the evening. R. flavipes flies from early January through April. R. virginicus flies from early February to late May. The two daytime species tend to fly on warm, sunny, windless early afternoons, usually after rain.
  • West Indian drywood termites (Cryptotermes brevis): make several mating flights from April to June, though flights can happen at any time of year.

Swarms are only part of the picture. UF/IFAS notes that established native subterranean colonies in Florida feed on wood all year, not just during their flight windows. West Indian drywood colonies don’t produce alates until they are about five years old, so a colony can exist well before it ever swarms. After a flight, drywood alates shed their wings. If you see swarmers or shed wings in your Boca Raton home at any time of year, schedule an inspection so the species can be identified.

How a Termite Inspection Leads to the Right Treatment Plan

Our termite process follows the species, not a one-size schedule. Here is how it works for a Boca Raton home:

  1. Free inspection of accessible areas.

    Our inspector checks the parts of your home that can be reached for signs of termite activity.

  2. Identify the termite type.

    The inspector determines whether the activity is drywood, native subterranean or Formosan. Every later step depends on this answer.

  3. Written options and quote.

    You get the services that fit your termite type, each with its written terms. You pick the option that suits your home and budget.

  4. Drywood termites.

    Options include spot treatment of specific areas and a drywood bond, which can include attic treatment, spot injections or radius treatment. Whole-house tent fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride is also available.

  5. Native subterranean termites.

    The option is the termite baiting system, with bait stations installed in the soil around your home and serviced under the agreement.

  6. Formosan termites.

    Options include the baiting system, liquid Formosan treatment or Formosan fumigation. Liquid treatment uses trenching along the foundation, drilling and injecting beneath abutting slabs, and spot or foam treatment where activity is known. Fumigation targets the Formosan termites present on treatment day. Its terms state that long-term Formosan protection requires a separate soil or liquid treatment, which isn’t part of the fumigation agreement. Your inspector will explain which options apply to your home.

  7. Preparation and treatment day.

    For fumigation, you complete a preparation checklist and leave the home, typically for two nights and three days. You go back in only after the licensed fumigator posts clearance. Liquid treatment doesn’t require you to leave. People and pets stay clear of the work area and off treated soil until it is watered in or dry.

What Termite Treatment Costs in Boca Raton

Termite pricing depends on the species and the method, so we publish just one reference figure. It applies only to a one-year drywood termite bond on a smaller home.

Termite protection in Boca Raton starts around $975 for a one-year drywood termite bond on a smaller home.

Every other service is quoted individually. That includes the three-year bond, spot treatment, drywood fumigation, Formosan fumigation, liquid Formosan treatment and the baiting system. Several things affect your price:

  • The size and layout of your home
  • The termite type and how much activity we find, and where
  • Attic access
  • The length of the warranty term
  • For soil-based work, the landscaping or hardscape around your foundation

Every job starts with a free inspection and a written quote. An official WDO report for a real estate transaction is a separate paid service, quoted on request.

What Customers Say About On Demand Pest Control

★★★★★

“Aiden was excellent! On his own initiative, he checked the wooden table and mirror by the front door where the dead termites had been found. He also checked another piece of wooden furniture that was nearby. He also found a new hole that the termites had made and was very thorough in treating the whole area. We are very pleased with his service and would highly recommend him to our friends.”

— A. Jones
★★★★★

“On Friday morning I saw what appeared to be droppings from drywood termites in my cabinet. I sent an online inquiry about a termite inspection. I received a call within 10 minutes, and by 130 that afternoon Bill came by to do a free inspection. Bill was knowledgeable, thorough, honest, and polite. He didn’t try to sell me something I didn’t need and provided a synopsis of possible treatments.”

— L. Shortt
★★★★★

“My neighbors used them and they came highly recommended. I called, they scheduled right away to come out, scheduled the tenting for termites right away, and scheduled the walk through appointment. Matthew Klein Senior inspector came out and is my rep now. He is very thorough, honest, and upfront. They do not add additional services just because, they listen to your needs, no games.”

Licensed and insured in Florida

  • Pest Control License #JB259950
  • Fully insured

Yes. On Demand Pest Control holds a Florida pest control business license from the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services: Pest Control License #JB259950. Florida licenses pest control at the state level, so this license covers our work in Boca Raton. We perform our services under the Florida Structural Pest Control Act.

We’re fully insured, with general liability and workers’ compensation coverage, and we’ve been in business since 2017. Your written termite agreement lists what each service includes and excludes, so you can read the actual terms before you commit. For household pests beyond termites, we also offer general pest control in Boca Raton.

Choosing a Termite Company in Boca Raton

Here is what Boca Raton homeowners get from our termite service:

  • Species first, method second. We identify drywood, native subterranean or Formosan activity before we recommend anything. Then we offer only the services whose contracts cover that species. For example, the baiting system is for subterranean termites and never for drywood termites.
  • Seven services, each with written terms. Bonds, spot treatment, fumigation, liquid treatment and baiting each have their own agreement. You can compare coverage, renewals and exclusions side by side.
  • Clear limits on every option. We tell you up front that Formosan fumigation has no warranty, that spot coverage lasts sixty days, and that no agreement pays for wood repair.
  • Prompt scheduling from our East Coast branch. We respond to requests the same day. New customers are typically scheduled within 24 hours. Same-day appointments depend on availability and preparation.

Termite Warranty Coverage: What Each Service Includes

Each termite service has its own written coverage, so your protection depends on the method you choose. Here is a plain summary:

  • Drywood termite bond: an initial term of one or three years. During the term, we provide any additional drywood treatment we find necessary at no additional charge. After the initial term, you can add optional one-year renewals for a renewal fee.
  • Drywood fumigation: a one-year initial term. It includes additional drywood treatment we find necessary at no additional charge, and you can add optional yearly renewals.
  • Spot drywood treatment: sixty days of coverage for the specific areas treated. It can’t be renewed.
  • Termite baiting system: installation includes the first year of monitoring and station servicing for native subterranean and Formosan termites. Each later year is an optional renewal.
  • Formosan liquid treatment: a one-year renewable warranty. Its only remedy is further liquid treatment, and it never includes fumigation.
  • Formosan fumigation: sold with no warranty and no included retreatment. Any later work is quoted separately.

None of these agreements pays for wood repair or termite damage, and each one covers only the termite types it names. A drywood bond doesn’t cover subterranean termites. The baiting system doesn’t cover drywood termites or above-ground activity. The bond, drywood fumigation, liquid Formosan and baiting agreements can transfer to a new owner if we receive written notice within thirty days. Spot treatment and Formosan fumigation don’t transfer. Your inspector will walk you through the full warranty terms for your option before you sign.

Frequently asked questions

How much does termite treatment cost in Boca Raton?

The starting figure in our pricing section applies only to a one-year drywood termite bond on a smaller home. Every other termite service is quoted individually after a free inspection. Your quote depends on the termite type, your home's size and the method you choose.

Do I have to leave my home during termite treatment?

It depends on the method. Tent fumigation requires you to leave and stay out until the licensed fumigator tests clearance levels and posts a written clearance notice. The typical vacate period is two nights and three days, and it can run longer. Liquid Formosan treatment doesn't require you to leave home, but people and pets must stay clear of the work area during application and off treated soil until it has been watered in or has dried. For other methods, your inspector explains what to expect before work begins.

Is the termite inspection free?

Yes. Our standard termite inspection is free and comes with a written quote. An official WDO report for a real estate closing is a separate paid service, quoted on request.

How soon can you inspect my Boca Raton home?

We respond to requests the same day, and new customers are typically scheduled within 24 hours. Same-day appointments depend on availability and preparation.

Does a termite warranty cover repairs to damaged wood?

No. None of our termite agreements covers wood repair or termite damage. Coverage is limited to the retreatment, further liquid treatment or station servicing described in your agreement. Formosan fumigation comes with no warranty.
