Planning tips for this checklist
Look for activity and conditions
Mud tubes, wings, soft wood, moisture, crawl-space access, mulch, firewood, wood-to-soil contact, and drainage all shape termite risk.
Compare treatment and warranty terms
Inspection diagrams, treatment method, bait stations, liquid treatment, repairs, renewal fees, and retreatment promises should be visible before signing.
Prevention continues after treatment
Moisture fixes, wood repairs, station checks, warranty renewal, and annual inspection reminders help keep termite protection from becoming a one-time event.
