Termite COntrol - The Action Way

Serving Indiana, Illinois & Kentucky

Termites, also known as “silent destroyers,” cause more than $5 billion in property damage each year by silently chewing through the walls, floors, and even wallpaper as they feed on this cellulose.* So whether you live in Louisville, KY, Indianapolis, IN, or anywhere in between, most homes have something in common – wood! Unfortunately, the sole food source for termites is the cellulose found in wood and wood products. 

Termites often tunnel their way to our properties, consume as much cellulose as possible, and then return to the termite colony to feed the thousands of other soldier, worker, and reproductive termites.

At Action Pest Control, we know the threat termites pose to homes and businesses throughout Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky. We’re here to deliver the best termite control and protection available.

Action's Step-by-Step Termite Control System​

Simply put, our termite control system is a comprehensive termite elimination and control plan with lifetime warranties available to give you assurance for years to come. Our termite control process consists of:

  • A comprehensive inspection: A licensed professional will conduct a thorough evaluation of the interior and exterior of your home to identify any existing signs of a termite infestation or termite damage. 
  • Termite treatment with Sentricon®: Sentricon® is a bait system that effectively eliminates colonies after worker termites come into contact with the active ingredient, noviflumuron.
  • Termite treatment with Termidor®: Termidor®’s exclusive “transfer effect” eliminates termites by both ingestion and contact and is lethal to termites simply through contact with other termites that have ingested the product. Because Termidor® is undetectable to termites, the pests travel freely through treated areas, unknowingly consuming and transferring Termidor® throughout the population.
  • A three-month termite elimination inspection: Our termite treatment products are guaranteed to be 100% effective in eliminating your termite infestation in three months or less. Your Action representative will re-evaluate your property 90 days post-treatment to make sure of it.
  • An annual termite inspection: To make sure our products continue to protect your property from termites for years to come, your Action representative will return each year to ensure there has been no soil disruption and that your home remains termite-free.

Whether you’ve found evidence of termite damage or want to make sure termites don’t have the chance to attack your home or business, Action Pest Control is ready to help. Don’t put your largest investment at risk of being damaged by termites. Contact us today!

Sentricon® System in Yard. This system can be used to treat Eastern subterranean termites throughout Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky.

How Does Sentricon® System Work?

Many property owners choose the Sentricon® Termite Colony Elimination System to protect homes and businesses from Eastern subterranean termites throughout Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky.

When you contact Action Pest Control for termite control using the Sentricon® System, we’ll send a trained technician out to inspect your property for signs of termites. Green Sentricon® stations containing termite bait are placed around the perimeter of your home once the inspection is complete. This system starts working the day it’s installed to eliminate current termite infestations. Sentricon® stations are then checked regularly by your Action technician so it continues working to prevent new termite infestations.

How Does Termidor® Work?

Because subterranean termites live and work so closely together, whenever a termite ingests or touches Termidor®, it becomes a “carrier,” transferring Termidor® to every other termite it touches. These termites become secondary carriers transferring Termidor® to every termite they contact— and so on throughout the colony.

Intentionally engineered to be slow-acting. Individual termites have ample time to pass it on to their entire population. This unique, spiraling process is called the “Transfer Effect,” which helps Termidor® deliver devastating results that are unmatched by any other product.

Termites on Action’s Most Wanted List

Although they could number in the millions, you might never see subterranean termites or any signs of them — until you discover that they’ve done serious damage to your structure. Here’s the breakdown of the termites on our most wanted list:

Kings & Queens

At least one king and queen are at the center of every termite colony. The queen’s sole purpose is to reproduce. Some live for as long as 30 years.

Eggs

A queen termite can lay thousands of eggs each year, ensuring the colony's growth. These eggs hatch into nymphs, which molt several times throughout their lives.

Nymphs

While in the nymph state, termites diverge into different castes: workers, soldiers, reproductives, and supplementary reproductives.

Workers

Blind, wingless worker termites maintain the colony, build nests, gather food, and care for others. They are the most numerous caste and commonly found in infested wood.

Soldiers

Soldier termites are sterile, wingless, and blind. Their sole purpose is to defend the colony from threats, using their large mandibles or chemical defenses to ward off intruders.

Winged Reproductives

These termites will eventually leave the colony as adult swarmers. After swarming, they shed their wings and pair up. Each male-female pair attempts to start a new colony.

Supplementary Reproductives

These termites help increase the population of established colonies and can serve as replacements for the king or queen if they should die.
