Fullerton Termite Control
Local Termite Treatment - Fullerton, CA
If a termite infestation is not severe enough to warrant a fumigation, local spot treatment is usually the best course of action.
While local spot treatment may not be as effective as a fumigation, it is less invasive and best applied when the termite infestation is believed to be very localized. It consists of spraying and applying termiticide, a termite exterminating formula, to affected spot (usually kickout holes or exit holes), and drilling additional holes around the impacted area and applying to those surrounding spots as well.

Benefits of Local Spot Treatment
- May be able to effectively eradicate termite infestations if applied properly directly to live termite colonies
- More cost effective than fumigation / tenting

- Doesn't require vacating the residence / property
- We offer a warranty on local spot treatments (not guaranteed with other companies)
Risks of Local Spot Treatment
- Not as certain of a methodology in exterminating termites as fumigation
- Treatments are limited by visibility and accessibility, so it is unclear whether the application has definitively eradicated all termites
- May require drilling additional holes in dry wall, wood or various places to maximize coverage
- Limited reach - cannot achieve whole-house eradication, not a real alternative to fumigation
- May see a recurrence of termites if local spot treatment did not completely eliminate infestation (which is why we offer a warranty with ours)
- May miss hidden termite infestations that are not visible from an inspection
