Termite Control

Termite Control Using Sentricon®

Targeted Termite Protection for Your Home

Termite infestations can develop out of sight, allowing colonies to cause structural damage before homeowners notice visible signs of activity. Gannon Pest Control provides residential termite control using the Sentricon® system to address termite colonies around your property.

Sentricon uses termite bait stations as part of a colony-focused approach to termite management. Instead of relying solely on treating visible termites, the system is designed to allow worker termites to carry the bait back to the colony.

How the Sentricon System Addresses Termite Colonies

The Sentricon system uses strategically placed stations containing termite bait to target termite colonies around a home. Worker termites encounter the bait and can transfer it within the colony, making the system different from a treatment focused only on termites that are immediately visible.

The process involves several important components, including:

Termite monitoring. Stations provide locations for monitoring termite activity around the property.
Bait placement. When appropriate, termite bait is placed within the system to address active termite colonies.
Colony-focused control. Worker termites can carry the bait back to the colony as part of the treatment process.
Ongoing monitoring. Regular service helps identify termite activity and determine when stations require attention.

The specific placement and service requirements depend on the property and conditions around the home.

Why Termite Control Requires More Than Treating Visible Activity

Termites are difficult to manage by treating only the insects homeowners happen to see because much of a colony remains hidden underground or within the structure.

Signs that can warrant a professional termite inspection include:

Discarded wings. Swarmers may leave wings near windows, doors, or other light sources.
Mud tubes. Subterranean termites can construct shelter tubes along foundations and other surfaces.
Wood damage. Hollow-sounding or damaged wood can indicate termite activity.
Swarmers. Winged termites appearing inside or around a home can indicate a nearby colony.

Seeing termites does not necessarily reveal where the colony is located or how extensive the activity may be. A professional inspection can help determine whether termite control is appropriate.

Residential Termite Control Built Around the Property

Termite treatment needs to account for the areas where termites can access a home, including soil around the foundation and other conditions that may contribute to activity.

During service, technicians can evaluate areas relevant to termite activity and the placement of the Sentricon system. This creates a treatment plan based on the home's individual conditions rather than relying on the same approach for every property.

Protect Your Home with Ongoing Termite Monitoring

Sentricon is designed for ongoing termite management, making continued monitoring an important part of the system. Regular service allows termite activity to be assessed and stations to be maintained as needed.

This approach can be particularly useful for homeowners who want a structured termite control program rather than waiting until visible damage or recurring activity appears.

Take Action When You Notice Signs of Termites

Termite activity can continue without obvious signs inside the home, so visible evidence such as swarmers, mud tubes, or damaged wood should not be ignored. Early attention gives you an opportunity to have the property evaluated and determine whether termite control is needed.

Gannon Pest Control provides residential termite control using the Sentricon system to help homeowners address termite activity and maintain an ongoing monitoring program.
