Our termite control services are offered in numerous locations across the Midwest, some including:
The bait attracts termites and acts as an alternative source of nutrition for them. The scavenging termites will then take the bait back to their colonies and feed it to the rest of the colony. The formula in the bait stops their ability to molt, which in turn eliminates the entire colony.
It will take a few weeks for them to find and distribute the bait from the stations. Then, elimination of the colony depends on a few varying factors and could take anywhere from 4 weeks to 3 months to fully eliminate the entire colony.
Termites are constantly finding and foraging for new sources of food, even if they have an abundance. This means that they will find the Sentricon bait stations and begin bringing that food to the colony, which will result in the full elimination of your infestation.
If your neighbors have reported termites in the area, your home may be at risk. Since they spreads underground, it’s impossible for you to detect it before it’s too late. Professional, preventative treatments are the best way for your home to stay termite-free.
Your neighbors Sentricon will not help eliminate the colonies around your home. The Sentircon system can only eliminate colonies where it is installed. It is entirely possible that there are many colonies foraging in your neighborhood that could infest your home.
Yes, the Sentricon system stays in the ground in order to protect your home against any future infestations.
An exterminator from Miller Pest & Termite will be out once a year to inspect your Sentricon bait stations to ensure they are working properly.
It's in termites biology to constantly be scavenging for food. Even if they have found a source of nutrition in your home they will continue to travel lengths up to the size of a football field in order to get food for their colony. So, even if they are under your home they will find the Sentricon bait station and administer it to the entire termite colony.
No, Sentricon will not attract them to your home. These stations act as an alternative source of food for termites, so if there are any in your area they will find the Sentricon bait station, bring it back to their colonies and their colonies will be eliminated.
Yes, the Sentricon bait stations are family and pet-friendly.
The quantity of active ingredient in each bait station is so small that your pet would need to ingest approximately 200 of the bait station inserts — which is simply impossible — before becoming sick.
If you’ve noticed any signs of an infestation, there is the possibility that your concrete wall may be infested. Although they don’t make their way through concrete the same way they do through the wood, termites only need a tiny hole to make their way through.
Unfortunately, termites do not go away on their own when the season ends. Once they’ve swarmed, they will infest starting from one part of your house and continue to do so until an effective treatment is performed. It is advised that you call a professional company like Miller for a detailed inspection and the best possible treatment.
