Termites cause much damage if they infiltrate a home or businesses. They feed off wood, including exteriors and interiors of a house, office, cabinets, furniture, and flooring.
The prolific reproductive behavior of termites means that new colonies will rapidly increase in numbers. Depending on where they’re established, they may chew their way into your home or business. If they’re not intercepted, they can cause eventual damage resulting in thousands of dollars in repair work.
In the United States, termites are found in 49 of the states and cause more than 2 billion dollars of damage every year. Much more than all the storms and fires combined.

Frequently Asked Questions About Termite Control
Why is termite control important for commercial properties?
Termites can cause serious damage when they infest a commercial building. They feed on wood found in structural components, furniture, cabinets, flooring, and other parts of a property.
Over time, their feeding can weaken wood and lead to expensive repairs. Professional termite control helps protect the structure and prevent long-term damage.
What damage can termites cause in a building?
Termites consume wood throughout a structure, including interior and exterior materials. This includes flooring, walls, furniture, and other wooden components.
If left untreated, their feeding can spread to multiple areas of the property and increase the extent of structural damage.
How quickly do termite colonies grow?
Termites reproduce quickly, and colonies can grow rapidly once established. As their numbers increase, they can expand into new areas of the structure.
Early detection and treatment help limit colony growth and reduce the risk of widespread damage.
Are termites common in the United States?
Termites are found in nearly every state across the United States. They cause more than two billion dollars in property damage each year.
Their destructive impact exceeds the damage caused by many natural disasters, which makes termite prevention extremely important.
What should I do if I see swarmers in my building?
If you notice swarming insects inside your property, it is important to schedule a professional inspection. Swarmers indicate that a termite colony may be nearby.
A trained technician can determine whether the insects are termites or ants and recommend the appropriate next steps.
How do professionals identify termites correctly?
Swarming insects are often confused with ants. A professional inspection evaluates the insect’s physical characteristics and signs of activity.
Correct identification ensures that the proper treatment plan is selected.
Will my building collapse if termites are found?
Finding termites does not mean the building will collapse immediately. Damage usually occurs gradually over time.
However, ignoring the problem can allow termites to continue feeding and cause more serious structural issues.
What termite services does Pointe Commercial offer?
Pointe Commercial provides several termite services to manage and prevent infestations. These include inspections, pretreatments, corrective treatments, retreatment warranties, and real estate inspections.
Each service is designed to support effective termite management for commercial properties.
What happens during a termite inspection?
A termite inspection involves examining the structure for signs of termite activity or damage. Technicians look for evidence such as damaged wood, swarmers, and other indicators.
After the inspection, our team provides recommendations based on our findings.
What are pretreatments for termites?
Pretreatments are preventative treatments usually applied during or before construction. They help reduce the risk of termite infestations in new structures.
This proactive approach provides long-term protection for commercial buildings.
What are corrective termite treatments?
Corrective treatments are used when an active termite infestation has been identified. These treatments are designed to eliminate existing termite activity.
Technicians evaluate the severity of the problem before recommending the best treatment approach.
What are retreatment warranties?
Retreatment warranties provide ongoing protection after initial termite services. If termites return under the terms of the agreement, additional treatment may be performed.
These warranties help support long-term termite management.
What are real estate termite inspections?
Real estate termite inspections are conducted during property sales or transfers. They identify any visible termite activity or damage before the transaction is completed.
This inspection helps buyers and sellers understand the condition of the structure and any potential termite concerns.
