Termite damage can severely impact your home's structure and value. At Preferred Pest Control, we've developed a comprehensive approach to eliminate these destructive pests while making the process as straightforward as possible for homeowners in St. Joseph.
Our Thorough Termite Treatment Process
We handle every aspect of termite protection, so you don't have to worry:
- A complete property inspection by certified technicians
- Custom treatment plan based on your specific infestation
- Sub-soil liquid barrier application around the entire foundation
- Treatment of all key entry points and contact areas
- Documentation and warranty setup with automatic transfers to new owners
Unlike companies that offer temporary solutions, our treatments target the entire colony at the source. Our five-year guarantee includes annual inspections to ensure your home remains protected, and we offer convenient renewal options after the initial period ends.
A Warranty You Can Pass Down
When we treat your home for termites, you get more than just protection—you get a transferable 5-year guarantee that stays with your property. Unlike companies that tie warranties to homeowners, our guarantee stays with your house even when you sell, adding real value to your investment.
After the initial period, just pay a small annual renewal fee for continued protection that includes yearly inspections and free re-treatments if termites return. This lifetime coverage option gives you long-term security that Preferred Pest Control's treatments will stand the test of time.
WDI Inspections for Real Estate Transactions
Preferred Pest Control helps real estate agents close deals smoothly with our thorough Wood Destroying Insect inspections. Our certified technicians examine properties for termites, powder post beetles, old house borers, carpenter ants, and carpenter bees that can damage structural integrity. We deliver detailed WDI reports that satisfy lender requirements while giving buyers confidence in their investment. Understanding the time-sensitive nature of property sales, we prioritize prompt service that keeps closings on schedule and provides clear documentation of any findings or necessary treatments.
Warning Signs of Termite Damage in Your Home
Termites can cause extensive structural damage to homes throughout Northwest Missouri before homeowners even realize they have an infestation. These wood-destroying insects work silently behind walls and under foundations, potentially compromising your biggest investment.
Homeowners in Missouri should watch for these telltale termite indicators:
- Mud tubes running along foundation walls or in crawl spaces
- Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
- Discarded wings near windows and doors, especially in spring
- Tight-fitting doors and windows that suddenly stick
- Small holes in wood with sawdust-like material nearby
- Blistering or darkening of wood structures
- Swarmers (winged termites) inside your home
Finding even one of these signs warrants immediate professional attention. At Preferred Pest Control, we understand how concerning potential termite activity can be for homeowners. Our treatment approach doesn't just temporarily push colonies away—we eliminate them at the source with comprehensive sub-soil liquid barriers that provide long-term protection for your property.
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.
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’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.
