Professional Solutions for Your Termite Problems

Termites are small, but the damage they cause can be devastating — often before you even know they’re there. These silent destroyers live underground and feed on wood 24/7, compromising your home’s structure over time. Whether you’ve spotted suspicious mud tubes, bubbling paint, or just want peace of mind, our team is here to help — fast and locally.

All treatments are family- and pet-friendly when applied by our licensed termite specialists.

Our Proven Termite Treatment Approach

  • Inspection: We don’t cut corners or rely on quick, surface-level treatments — our full sub-soil liquid barrier eliminates colonies at the source and protects your home for decades.
  • Treatment: Our licensed technicians apply a sub-soil liquid barrier that eliminates active colonies and prevents new infestations from entering your home’s foundation. We treat around the perimeter and other key contact points where termites travel unseen.
  • Follow-Up & Monitoring: Each service comes with a lifetime warranty — the first five years include free inspections and re-treatments if needed. After that, a small annual renewal fee keeps your coverage active for life, with inspections every year (or any time you need us).
  • For Realtors & Buyers: We know real estate timelines move quickly, which is why we offer prompt scheduling and same-day NPMA-33 reports whenever possible.

Our Termite Guarantee

At Preferred Pest Control, we stand behind every treatment with our Lifetime Termite Protection Guarantee. Your first five years of coverage are completely free — including annual or as-needed inspections and any re-treatments required.

After five years, a small annual renewal fee keeps your warranty active for life with yearly inspections. Because our guarantee is fully transferable, the coverage stays with the property when you sell — helping your home pass inspections smoothly and giving buyers extra confidence during the transaction.

Homes change, life moves quickly, and real estate timelines can be stressful. A transferable termite warranty keeps one big worry off your plate.

WDI Reports for Real Estate Transactions

Preferred Pest Control helps real estate agents close deals smoothly with our thorough Wood Destroying Insect inspections. Our certified technicians carefully examine properties for termites, powder post beetles, old house borers, carpenter ants, and carpenter bees that can threaten structural integrity. When you need a comprehensive termite inspection for a property sale, our detailed WDI reports provide the documentation lenders require while giving buyers confidence in their investment. We understand the time-sensitive nature of real estate transactions and prioritize prompt, professional service that keeps closings on schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your treatments family and pet-friendly?

Yes. All products are applied with precision by licensed professionals to target termites only — not people or pets.

Can I combine termite protection with other pest services?

Yes — many homeowners add our Preferred Choice Plan for total year-round protection against ants, spiders, and other common pests.

Do you offer termite inspections for real estate transactions?

Absolutely. We provide NPMA-33 forms for buyers, sellers, and realtors throughout Northwest Missouri.

How do I know if I have termites, and how much damage could they cause?

Signs of a termite infestation can include discarded wings, small piles of wood-colored droppings, hollow-sounding wood, or visible mud tubes along your foundation or walls. Termites can quietly cause significant structural damage over time if left untreated, weakening wood in your home, including framing, flooring, and furniture. A professional inspection is the only reliable way to confirm an infestation and assess potential damage before it becomes costly.

How long does a termite inspection take?

Most homes take 45–90 minutes, depending on size and foundation type. We inspect inside and out, including crawl spaces and wood-to-soil contact areas.

Is the guarantee transferable if I sell my home?

Yes. Our termite guarantee stays with the property, not the owner—so if you sell your home, the new homeowner automatically inherits the coverage.

Is this a one-time treatment or recurring service?

Our termite treatment is a one-time service designed for long-term protection. However, we also offer annual inspections and renewal options to maintain your warranty and ensure continued coverage.

What types of termite services do you offer?

We provide complete termite protection, including pre-home buying inspections (Wood-Destroying Insect Reports), termite inspections, one-time treatments, ongoing monitoring, and warranty renewal programs.

What’s included in your lifetime guarantee?

The first five years of coverage are free, with annual or as-needed inspections and re-treatments if needed. After that, a small renewal fee keeps your warranty active for life.

When is the best time to schedule a termite treatment?

Most termite treatments are performed in the spring when termite activity increases, but we offer inspections and same-day bids for swarmer calls year-round.

They are great to work with. The technician who did my pest treatment, Jose, was polite, efficient, and professional. For my sake, I hope I never have to need pest control again. But they're who I'll call if I do. Thanks again Jose! Very pleased.

Amanda was prompt, friendly and very thorough. I appreciated her expertise on my issue but mostly the care and concern she exhibited. Would definitely recommend!

5 Star Review

We purchased a new home that was built in an area that was previously an open field, and have caught a couple of mice in the unfinished portion of our basement where the furnace and sump pump are located. We called Preferred Pest Control to ensure that we didn't have a larger problem on our hands, and to see what solutions they might be able to offer. Matt arrived at our house and did a thorough investigation to determine if and where we might have some activity, and to also identify where the mice might be getting inside.

Justin came to give inspection so to give a bid he was very thorough in his inspection and and the information of how it should go and the stages of the treatment. Very informative and I feel encouraged by the job they will be doing.
