Drywood, Formosan or Subterranean? Getting the Diagnosis Right in Sunrise

If you need termite treatment in Sunrise, the first step is finding out which termite you have. South Florida homes can have drywood termites, which live inside the wood they eat. They can also have subterranean termites, including Formosan termites, which work from the soil. Each group needs a different approach, so identifying the species shapes the whole plan.

On Demand Pest Control starts with a free inspection of the accessible areas of your Sunrise home. Our inspector looks for discarded wings, droppings, mud tubes and damaged wood, then explains the findings in plain language. You then get written termite treatment options that fit the species and the areas involved. Each option comes with its own contract terms, so you can compare them side by side before you decide what makes sense for your home.

We respond the same day you reach out. New customers are typically scheduled within 24 hours, and same-day appointments depend on availability and preparation.

What Each Termite Treatment Involves at Your Home

The work looks different for each method. Tent fumigation covers the whole house, and you stay out until the licensed fumigator tests clearance levels and posts a clearance notice. Formosan liquid treatment involves trenching along the foundation and drilling and injecting beneath slabs that touch the house. The drill holes are patched but stay visible. Baiting systems place stations in the soil around the home. Bond and spot treatments focus on the attic and the wood identified during inspection.

When Termites Swarm in South Florida: Timing by Species

A swarm is a dispersal flight of winged termites called alates. University of Florida (UF/IFAS) research shows that swarm timing in Florida depends on the species:

  • Formosan subterranean termites: usually swarm from early April to late June, shortly after sunset, with peak activity in May. A flight can include tens of thousands of termites. When a structure is infested, the swarm can happen indoors.
  • West Indian drywood termites: flights run from April to June, but they can happen at any time of year.
  • Native subterranean termites (Reticulitermes): Florida’s three species fly at different times. 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. R. flavipes and R. virginicus usually fly on warm, sunny, windless early afternoons after rain.

These are statewide biology timelines. They don’t tell you how common each termite is in Sunrise. Because the windows overlap, winged termites on a windowsill in spring could belong to more than one species. Timing gives clues, like a swarm right after sunset or a sunny afternoon flight after rain. A close look at the insects and the damage is what confirms the species.

A month with no swarms doesn’t mean termites have gone. UF/IFAS notes that established Reticulitermes colonies in Florida feed on wood year-round. Drywood colonies live entirely inside the wood they eat, where you may not see them.

How Termite Treatment Works for Sunrise Homes

We identify the termite before we recommend anything, because the right method depends on the species and where the activity is.

  1. Free inspection.

    Our inspector checks the accessible areas of your home for evidence of termite activity, such as wings, droppings, mud tubes and damaged wood.

  2. Identify the termite.

    The inspector determines whether the activity is drywood, Formosan or native subterranean. That decides which services can work.

  3. Review written options.

    For drywood termites, the options are spot treatment, a bond (attic treatment, spot injections or radius treatment), or whole-house tent fumigation. For Formosan termites, the options are liquid soil treatment, Formosan fumigation or a baiting system. For native subterranean termites, the option is the baiting system. You choose the one that fits your home.

  4. Prepare for your method.

    Fumigation follows a preparation checklist and requires you to leave the home. Liquid treatment needs a clear foundation and marked buried lines. Baiting stations are installed in the soil around the home. Your technician explains the prep for the service you choose.

  5. Treatment.

    Our technician applies the treatment following the product label.

  6. After treatment.

    What happens next depends on your written agreement. Baiting agreements include an inspection of the installed stations at least once a year during the first year and any optional renewal term. Bond, drywood fumigation, spot treatment and Formosan liquid treatment agreements provide service as needed when you report activity. Formosan fumigation includes no follow-up service.

What Termite Treatment Costs in Sunrise

Termite pricing depends on the species, the method and the size of your home, so most options are quoted one home at a time. The one published starting figure applies to a single service: a one-year drywood termite bond on a smaller home.

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

Tent fumigation, Formosan liquid treatment, baiting system installation, spot treatment and three-year bond terms are each quoted separately after the inspection. The main factors behind the final price are:

  • Termite species and the method it calls for
  • Home size and layout, including attic access
  • How many areas show activity
  • Term length for bond coverage

Every job starts with a free inspection and a written quote. If you need an official WDO report for a real estate transaction, that report is a separate paid service, quoted when you ask.

Where in Sunrise You Can Book a Termite Inspection

Free termite inspections are available to homeowners anywhere within Sunrise. Appointments are handled by our East Coast branch in Davie, which covers cities across Broward County, including Sunrise.

  • Sawgrass Mills area: the large shopping and entertainment center is a well-known Sunrise landmark and a handy reference point when you give us your address.

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.”

— C. Luongo

Why Sunrise Homeowners Choose On Demand for Termite Control

Termite work pays off when the method fits the termite. Here’s what sets our approach apart:

  • Options based on the species: we recommend services that fit the termite we find. We don’t offer baiting for drywood termites or tenting for native subterranean termites.
  • Seven separate termite services: spot treatment, bonds, drywood and Formosan fumigation, Formosan liquid treatment and baiting systems, so the plan can match the size of the problem.
  • Contract terms in writing: each option’s coverage, term and renewal choices are written out before you commit, including which service has no warranty.
  • A nearby branch and quick response: our East Coast branch is in Davie. We respond the same day, and new customers are typically scheduled within 24 hours.

Termite Warranty Coverage by Treatment Method

There is no single termite warranty. Coverage depends on the method, and Formosan fumigation carries no warranty at all. None of our termite agreements pay to repair wood damage.

  • Drywood termite bond: first term of one or three years, with optional one-year renewals. During an active term, covered drywood activity in the treated wood is re-treated at no additional charge.
  • Drywood tent fumigation: one-year first term, with optional one-year renewals. During an active term, covered drywood activity is re-treated at no additional charge.
  • Drywood spot treatment: sixty days of coverage for the specific areas treated. It doesn’t renew or transfer to a new owner.
  • Formosan liquid treatment: a one-year renewable warranty that covers further liquid treatment only. It never includes fumigation.
  • Formosan fumigation: sold with no warranty and no included retreatment. Any later work is quoted as a separate job.
  • Termite baiting system: installation includes the first year of station monitoring and servicing for subterranean termites, including Formosan, with optional one-year renewals. It doesn’t cover drywood termites or above-ground activity.

Before you sign, your inspector walks you through the written warranty terms for the option you’re considering, including what keeps coverage active. Common conditions include reporting termite activity promptly, fixing water leaks we point out, and telling us in writing about structural changes to the home. Transfer rules and renewal choices also differ between agreements, so read each one on its own.

Frequently asked questions

How much does termite treatment cost in Sunrise?

It depends on the termite species, the treatment method and the size of your home. Our published starting figure applies only to a one-year drywood bond on a smaller home. Every other termite service is quoted in writing after a free inspection.

Is the termite inspection free?

Yes, our standard termite inspection is free. An official WDO report for a real estate transaction is a separate paid service, and we quote it when you ask.

Do I have to leave my home during termite treatment?

For tent fumigation, yes. You're usually out for two nights and three days, and it can take longer depending on weather, foam-insulated attics or the size of the home. You can go back in only after the licensed fumigator posts clearance. Liquid treatment doesn't require leaving the home. People and pets need to stay clear of the immediate work area while trenching, drilling and application are in progress, and stay off treated soil until the application has been watered in or has dried. Other methods have their own prep steps, which your technician explains.

Does Formosan fumigation come with a warranty?

No. Formosan fumigation is sold without a warranty and includes no retreatment. Any later work is quoted separately. For longer-term Formosan protection, you can choose liquid treatment, which has a one-year renewable warranty covering further liquid treatment, or a baiting system.

How soon can you come out for a termite inspection in Sunrise?

We respond the same day you contact us. New customers are typically scheduled within 24 hours, and same-day appointments depend on availability and preparation.
