Termites are wood destroying insects that scientists believe have been around for over 250 million years! Most termites feed on cellulose from wood or wood products. They are social insects that live in a colony in the ground or in wood. One of the tell tale signs of their presence is the mud tubes they build to gain access to wood. Without these mud tubes, termites would be exposed to the open air, dry out and die.
The greatest concern is structural damage.
Termite control may be difficult, which is why our service includes the necessary products and follow up visits for one fee. Our termite treatment methods consist of the following:
Initial Service- The Schendel Termite Elimination and Protection program (S.T.E.P.) is a comprehensive 5 step service that includes a detailed inspection of the interior and exterior of your home including your surrounding property, then a targeted treatment of all the areas where termite activity is present using all our termite resources to prevent these destructive pests including the highly effective Advance Termite Bait System. The S.T.E.P. program also gets rid of termite colonies on your property as part of our initial service.
Follow Up- Schendel Pest Services will continue to monitor the Advance Termite Bait Systems four times each year and will place bait in any station if termite activity is found. Quarterly written updates documenting any activity found are provided and all Schendel Premium Care customers enjoy the benefit of our PestZero Guarantee.
Due to the complexity of treatment and the time required, termites are generally not a pest many people have success in eradicating. Beware when purchasing pesticides and other products online as many are not effective. Pesticides can be harmful to people and pets if they are misused or mixed improperly.
Schendel is 100% committed helping you ASAP. In most cases, we can respond the same or very next day.
Schendel uses the least amount of material as possible while still resolving the problem. We utilize natural products, baits, and mechanical means as a form of treatment as much as possible. When conventional materials are required, we follow very stringent guidelines for the use of the product so that it poses no threat to people, pets or plants. All products are found to be effective and registered by the EPA. Our service technicians will inform you of any specific safety measures that need to be taken.
We have standard pricing for all of our pest services, based on average size homes under 3500 square feet, and where the infestation does not require more than the standard number of services. We will always make you aware of any price changes before we start your service. Sign up for your FREE quote today and see how much you can save with Schendel.

Testimonials
"Hello, I wanted to write and tell you of the excellent service Steve Coppedge has provided for our home. He does the usual good things most excellent employee's provide, but he also goes above service and cares about what he is doing. I will tell you about one example of his helpfulness to us. We were on a trip this past January and while servicing our home he noted when he was leaving that some roof flashing was loose and blowing. It was a very windy day and storms were supposed to be on the way. He called our home phone number and left us a message. We were able to pick up that message and contact our siding company who made the necessary repairs. Without his phone call there would have been more damage."
