Edgewood has a quiet, tucked-away feeling, tree-lined streets, lakes just around the corner, and older homes that carry a lot of history. But that same charm also creates ideal conditions for termites. If you’ve ever tapped a wall and felt it sound hollow or noticed peeling paint that didn’t make sense, you’re not imagining things.
Step
1
We Start with a Thorough Inspection
Edgewood homes sit close to water, mature shade trees, and soil that holds moisture long after rain. That combination gives termites plenty of places to hide.
During your free inspection, we slow down and check the areas most homeowners never look at closely, porch framing, shaded siding, baseboards, garage entry points, crawlspaces, and anywhere humidity settles.
We bring experience, moisture meters, infrared tools, and the patience to inspect the right way. And we explain what we see in clear, simple terms so you always feel informed.

A Treatment Plan That Fits Your Home
Edgewood has a mix of charming older homes, renovated lakefront properties, and newer builds. Each one needs a specific approach. After inspecting your home, we create a termite treatment plan based on the structure, layout, age, and severity of activity.
Your treatment may include:
• Liquid barrier treatments that stop termites quickly
• Baiting systems that eliminate underground colonies quietly and completely
• Spot treatments for early-stage issues
• Fumigation options for widespread or long-standing infestations
Everything we use is family-safe, pet-safe, and designed for real, lasting results

Full-Term Extermination with Follow-Through
Termite problems come with a lot of stress, and we never ignore that. Once treatment begins, we stay in touch, return for follow-ups when needed, and make sure your home is fully protected, not partially, not temporarily.
Edgewood homeowners often tell us how much they appreciate having someone steady, honest, and calm guiding them through the process.

Ongoing Termite Protection
Edgewood’s warm weather, heavy shade, and lakeside moisture mean termites can return if the home isn’t monitored. We offer protection plans with annual inspections, bait system maintenance, and preventative treatments, keeping your home protected year-round.
With water bodies like Lake Conway and Little Lake Conway nearby, humidity levels stay high. Many homes in Edgewood also have older wood framing or lakeside exposure, which creates ideal conditions for termite colonies.
Without early detection, termites can work quietly behind walls for months.
Edgewood sees both Eastern Subterranean termites and aggressive Formosan termites. Both species can cause significant structural damage and require professional treatment.
