Experience Effective Termite Control Today!
Eastern subterranean termites are widespread across Massachusetts and Rhode Island, infiltrating structural timbers and leading to costly home repairs that can escalate into the thousands of dollars. These destructive termites thrive in colonies and are classified as social insects, consisting of three primary castes: workers, soldiers, and reproductive members, which include a king and queen. Their collective effort in building and maintaining the colony makes them particularly effective at causing damage to wooden structures.
Don’t wait until you spot signs of termite activity, such as discarded wings or mud tubes; by that point, the damage may already be extensive, potentially resulting in severe repair costs that can add up quickly alongside the expenses associated with treatment and prevention.
Pest Assassins utilizes one of the most advanced, effective, and efficient termite elimination systems available in the industry. As the termites consume the bait, they return to the colony and share it with their nest mates, effectively spreading the lethal substance throughout the entire colony. This ingenious process means that as more termites consume the bait, the effects compound, ultimately leading to the demise of the entire colony, including the vital queen.
Once the colony has been successfully eradicated, Pest Assassins will not only celebrate this victory but will also carry out regular inspections of your system to ensure your property remains protected against any future infestations. This proactive approach provides peace of mind, knowing that your home is safeguarded from the relentless threat of termites.
How Do Termites Enter A Home?
Subterranean termites are a persistent threat to properties in New England, often infiltrating homes and businesses using mud tubes as a key method of entry. These tubes, which are made from soil, wood, and termite saliva, serve as protective tunnels that allow termites to travel between their underground colonies and above-ground food sources, such as your wooden structures.
To prevent an infestation, it's essential to maintain proper drainage, eliminate wood-to-soil contact, and seal potential entry points.

Termite Baiting Service
A Pest Assassins representative will inspect your home and create a customized termite treatment plan. This plan includes installing termite baiting stations strategically around the perimeter of your home or business. If there is an active infestation inside we will treat those visible areas of termites along with installing the bait system.
After bait stations are found by termites, they work to provide ongoing structural protection through termite colony elimination and are monitored and maintained by our service professional quarterly throughout the year.
Termite Elimination
While tunneling in search of a food source, termites find a Trelona ATBS bait station, feed, then leave a pheromone trail behind them as they travel back to the colony. Upon returning to the colony, they share the bait with others and recruit more termites to follow the pheromone trail back to the source.
What they don’t realize is the bait contains an active ingredient that prevents the termites’ vital process of molting. Over time, more and more termites will have fed upon the bait and start to die, beginning the process of colony elimination.
If you have more questions or need assistance, our team at Pest Assassins is here to help you with all your termite control needs.
