Tentless Termite Treatment for Coral Gables Homes
Effective Termite Elimination Without Disruption
Traditional termite fumigation requires covering your entire home in a tent, evacuating for several days, removing food and medicine, and boarding pets. For Coral Gables homeowners, this disruption often feels overwhelming. The visible tent on your home, coordination with neighbors, hotel expenses, and general upheaval make fumigation something to dread. Our tentless approach changes that equation entirely.
Tentless termite treatment targets drywood termite colonies directly, injecting treatment products into the wood where termites live. No whole-house tenting means no evacuation required. You can remain in your home throughout the treatment process. No visible tarps announce to the neighborhood that you have a termite problem. No food disposal, no pet boarding, no hotel bills.
This approach works particularly well for the localized drywood infestations common in Coral Gables' historic homes. When termites affect specific areas like window frames, door casings, or sections of roof framing, tentless treatment eliminates those colonies effectively without treating the entire structure. For many Coral Gables homeowners, this targeted approach provides the solution they need without the disruption they dread.

How Tentless Treatment Works
Understanding the process
Tentless treatment uses targeted application to eliminate drywood termite colonies where they live without treating the entire structure.
Detailed Inspection First
Every tentless treatment begins with thorough inspection to locate termite colonies and map their extent. We identify entry points, probe for damage, and determine whether tentless treatment suits your specific situation. This assessment ensures we treat all affected areas and that tentless methods will be effective for your infestation.
Direct Colony Treatment
Our technicians drill small access points into infested wood and inject treatment product directly into termite galleries. The product eliminates termites in contact and transfers throughout the colony as termites interact with each other. Access points are sealed and can be patched or painted to match existing finishes.
Comprehensive Coverage
We treat all identified infestation areas during the appointment. For historic Coral Gables homes, this might include window frames, door casings, roof framing, crown moldings, or any other wood components where drywood termites have established colonies. The goal is complete elimination of all active infestations.
Warranty Protection
Tentless treatments include our standard 1-year warranty. If termites return to treated areas within the warranty period, we return and retreat at no additional charge. This coverage provides peace of mind that the treatment worked as intended.
