Mud tubes running up your foundation are subterranean termites building a protected path from the soil to the wood framing — our inspection traces every tube back to its source before we quote a barrier treatment. A colony can feed on structural wood for years before any visible sign appears on the surface, which is why routine inspection matters even without an active swarm.
A full inspection includes a wood-destroying organism report suitable for real estate closings, at no charge.


Every technician performing Monte Sereno termite inspections carries state licensing for wood-destroying organism reporting.
We keep inspection slots open same-week for Monte Sereno homeowners seeing mud tubes or wings near windows.
Liquid barrier and bait station pricing is quoted after inspection, tied to linear footage and species found.
Our inspection kit includes bore-scopes for checking wall voids without cutting into drywall unnecessarily.
A liquid barrier is trenched and applied along the full foundation line, not just the section where mud tubes were spotted.
Bait stations are placed around the property and checked on a monitoring schedule to catch new activity early.
We identify drywood frass (small pellet droppings) to pinpoint exactly which framing member needs treatment.
Photos of any damage found are included in the report so buyers and agents see exactly what was inspected.
Moisture meters and sounding tools help us map the extent of existing damage before recommending repairs.
We set up recurring inspection schedules for Monte Sereno commercial buildings with reports for property records.

Tell dispatch whether it's a swarm sighting or existing damage; swarm calls get expedited scheduling.
A technician arrives with moisture meters and inspection tools ready to check the foundation, crawl space, and framing.
Inspection results in a written treatment plan and price, whether that's a liquid barrier or bait station system.
Treatment is applied the same visit when possible, with monitoring visits scheduled to confirm the colony is gone.
The WDO report they provided was exactly what our lender needed for closing — saved us from a delay.
Swarmers showed up near our bedroom window one evening and I panicked. The inspection found a subterranean colony and the liquid barrier was done the same week.
As a property manager, having a bonded termite plan on file made our annual insurance review painless.
We were about to list our house when the pre-listing inspection caught early subterranean activity — glad it was found before a buyer's inspector did.

No matter which Monte Sereno neighborhood you're in, a technician equipped for termite-specific work can reach you within days, often sooner. Real estate transactions, renewals, and new active infestations all fall under the same Monte Sereno service area and response timeline.

Termite wings are equal in length and shed easily near a single point, while ant wings are uneven in size — a technician can confirm on site.
Subterranean termites need soil contact and build mud tubes, while drywood termites live entirely inside dry wood without soil access.
Yes, a WDO report is standard for most real estate transactions and we can usually schedule it within a few days.
Longevity depends on the product used and soil conditions, which we'll explain based on what's applied to your property.
Exterior barrier treatment usually doesn't require leaving the home, but we'll tell you specifically if your treatment plan does.
