Our Pre-Construction Termite Treatment Services
Boracare® Borate Pre-Treatment
Boracare® is a leading borate-based wood treatment designed to protect new structures from termite infestations.

Boracare® pre-construction termite treatment is an effective way to safeguard your property before termites become a problem.
Benefits of Boracare® Pre-Construction Termite Treatment:
Long-Lasting Protection – Forms a barrier that deters termites from consuming the wood.
Environmentally Conscious – Requires less chemical exposure than traditional soil treatments.

Applied During Construction – Ensures early termite prevention with long-term efficacy.


Sentricon® Post-Construction Termite Baiting
For continued termite defense after construction, we offer the Sentricon® termite baiting system. While pre-construction termite treatment with Boracare® protects new wood, Sentricon® adds an extra layer of defense by eliminating colonies that may attempt to invade later.
Benefits of Sentricon®:
Targets Entire Colonies – Unlike spot treatments, Sentricon® eliminates the entire termite colony.
No Trenching or Drilling – Installed around the property perimeter without invasive treatments.
