Don't let termites quietly cost you thousands
Termites can be one of the most costly and obnoxious pests you can have. They love to eat wood, which can be bad for homes. They cause a lot of property damage, and you often won't even notice them until they've already been in your structure for several years. When you finally start to see termite damage, it can be costly to fix.
Most insurance policies don't cover damage from termites either — which means repairs come right out of your pocket. If you're suffering from a termite invasion, contact Stampede Pest Control in Austin, Texas right away. Our expert pest control professionals do a thorough property inspection and create a preventive plan that gets rid of the termites now and keeps them gone for many years.

Easy steps to prevent a termite problem in Texas
You can do many things to make sure you don't develop a termite problem. They're all easy steps that can save you from more significant issues in the future.
Stop all wood-to-soil contact
If possible, make sure any wood on or in your house doesn't touch soil directly. Try to keep it at least six inches off the ground.
Avoid keeping wood debris around your home
Remove all wood and leaf debris from around your home. If you keep firewood, don't let it touch the ground or your house directly, and try not to use wood mulch in your garden.
Fix water leaks from faucets, water lines, roofs and gutters
Termites like damp places. If you keep your foundation and the area around your home dry, they are less likely to infest there.
Use plastic sheeting on crawl-space soil
Cover your crawl-space soil in plastic. It helps keep the area drier, which helps to keep the termites out.
Cut shrubs away from the home
Keep all wood away from the house, including living branches. Trim shrubs and tree branches so they don't touch your home.

Frequently asked questions
You'll want to ask about price, treatment options, free consultations, whether you need to be home during the treatment, and whether you need a whole-home or spot treatment.
Moist soil and wood touching the ground can very much encourage termite activity. Additionally, woodpiles, dead trees and stumps, and any open crack or vent can allow termites to gain entry during swarming.
Subterranean termites can have large colonies in the wall. Every situation is unique, but large sections of the property will likely need treatment at once. When we perform the termite inspection, we can advise you on whether we can take care of the problem by treating specific areas or if it will need to be the whole home.
Spring is the main swarm time for termites. It is when they are the most active, and the increase in activity makes them more noticeable. But they have usually been there for a long time before you finally notice them in the spring.
DIY termite control tends to use weaker products, and you don't have the proper equipment. If you don't know what you're doing, you may not get the whole colony and the treatment will be less effective. A professional makes sure the infestation is gone and keeps it from coming back, and we offer guarantees on our treatments so you have peace of mind.
There are two standard termite treatment methods: liquid treatments and termite baiting. Liquid treatment involves spraying on the structure and along the base of the home. Baiting involves creating traps that attract termites and poison the whole colony.
The termite treatment can last anywhere from one to five years depending on the treatment and who's doing it. Setting up yearly inspections to make sure the infestation doesn't come back is a smart plan.
Termites will begin dying immediately, and within a few days you'll see a significant reduction in the colony.
