Ants in the kitchen, or tubes on the foundation?

Whichever it is, the visit starts with an inspection. Then you get a plan for what is there now, and the upkeep that stops it coming back.

The perimeter walk

What a Whitco tech checks, all the way around the house

Five stops on a quarterly visit to a Piedmont brick ranch. Drag or scroll sideways.

The bed line

Where the straw meets the brick

Pine straw holds damp against a foundation, and ants trail along its edge. A barrier treatment goes where the bed meets the wall, not across the whole yard.

The vents

Every gap is a door

Mice and rats come in through vents and gaps at the foundation. Rodent work is strategic baiting and exclusion: seal the way in, then bait what is left.

The footing

Mud tubes on the block

Subterranean termites build these tunnels to cross from soil to wood without drying out. Finding them is the inspection. Treating the colony is the work. A yearly look keeps watch.

Baits where pests travel

Targeted baits and insect growth regulators sit on the routes pests actually use. It is how Whitco gets results while keeping pesticide use down.

Wood that stays wet rots on its own and feeds termites faster. Moisture control dries the structure so neither problem gets a start.

Termites and damp wood are one problem.

Termites eat wood fastest where it stays wet, and wet wood rots by itself. So Whitco handles moisture alongside termite work: eradicate the colony, dry the structure, then come back every year to inspect.

Asked on the porch

What customers want to know first

Anything not here, the office will answer on the phone.

Usually not. Whitco books the appointment and tells you when the tech is coming. Customers on the quarterly program say they only need to be home when there is a problem inside the house; the outside of the house is treated either way.

Pest control comes as a one-time treatment, a monthly plan or a quarterly plan. Every plan starts with an inspection, and you get maintenance options and tips to keep the problem from coming back.

Whitco uses environmentally friendly methods that keep pesticide use down, aiming targeted treatments at the pest in question instead of blanket spraying. Long-time customers describe the products as pet friendly.

Whitco inspects the property for signs and problem areas, offers treatment options to eradicate the colony, then comes back for yearly inspections to make sure the control holds.

Excess moisture under a house feeds the fungi that rot wood and draws termites in. Moisture control dries the structure out so neither has the conditions it needs.

There is no flat price list, because the right plan depends on what the inspection finds. Estimates are free and come with no obligation. Call (252) 492-2818 or the office line nearest you.
