Frequently Asked Questions

Termites don’t like the sunlight, so they build above-ground mud tunnels to travel and below-ground colonies to work, live, and protect themselves from the light and dry atmosphere. The only times you will see the termites is when they have eaten too much and exposed themselves, or when they swarm.

Termites cause more monetary damage in the US yearly than all hurricanes, windstorms, and tornadoes combined! This is why termite treatment is strongly recommended due to the potential for infestation and damage.

Every home’s construction is different, and every one must be carefully inspected first to determine the presence of termites and the type of treatment required. A Jamison termite inspection is FREE!

Once the initial treatment is completed, the ongoing warranty is very important in case of termites return. Our warranty covers needed repairs should termites do damage after the initial treatment.

During the spring, the reproductive portion of the colony will produce “swarming termites or termites that fly.” The “Swarmers” purpose is to breed new termites to create new termite colonies. This is one of the few times termites make themselves visible. When you see a swarm of termites in your home, the termites already have a “foothold.”

Every home is different so our Jamison inspector, following a completely FREE inspection of your home, will give you the entire treatment recommendation, the location of the termites/damage, and any recommendations for continued protection of your home.
