Inspecting & Identifying Termites Properly

Termites aren’t the only pests that attack wood. You also have to consider carpenter ants, wood infesting beetles, or carpenter bees as potential trespassers. When you request a termite inspection service a termite technician will inspect the accessible areas of your property accordingly. Unfortunately due to their subterranean or secretive nature these pests may be difficult to locate, in all instances, but if they are located Standard can arrange for a customized treatment plan ASAP.

Our team works hard to make the whole inspection easy for you. We know that your property signifies a massive investment, when termites infest your property they are capable of bringing huge costs with them. In most cases termite infestations are discovered long after they have caused significant damage in Westchester, NY. Termites are in part so troublesome because they are stealth pests. In other words, unlike other infestations, they work from behind the scenes and you only find the destruction they have caused when you initially see them.

A normal termite infestation in NYC or NJ will take our specialists under an hour.
