Many people who are natives of Alabama are well apprised to the threat Termites pose to their home. But not everyone. And certainly not people who are moving to the southeast from other parts of the country. Huntsville is booming and Mr. Buggs Pest Patrol is sharing with new home owners and their realtors everything that goes in to Termite inspection, protection and warranties.
Alabama is home to the most destructive and aggressive type of Termite, the subterranean termite, who feasts on buildings standing upright, causing over 5 billion dollars’ worth of damage to homes every year. This type of Termite is relentless and unforgiving when it comes to the destruction of a home. Alabama is also positioned smack dab in the middle of the region with the most Termite activity in our country. If you look down at the ground on which you are standing, there are likely hundreds of thousands of termites right beneath the soil under your feet. Because of these factors, every home buyer should always have the house inspected before purchase and every home owner should have Termite protection in place. In Alabama, it’s not a matter of “if”, but “when” when it comes to Termite infestations. By the time a homeowner without Termite protection sees signs of damage and suspects Termites, the damage behind walls and within the foundation is usually extreme. And Termite damage is not covered by home owners’ insurance as the preventative treatment for Termites is considered routine home maintenance.
So how do we protect our most valuable investments against these relentless attackers? We outsmart them. Mr. Buggs offers the pest control industry’s top product on the market for Termite protection, the Sentricon Colony Elimination System. The Sentricon System beats Termites at their own game. Sentricon is an always active baiting system that Worker Termites find through their natural foraging habits. With this system in place, Termites feast on the bait and return it to their colony, eliminating the entire colony. With the Sentricon System in place, home buyers can have peace of mind that their investment is protected. Here is a link to a brief and very informative video with education about Termites and Termite protection with the Sentricon Termite Colony Elimination System.
