Termittbehandlinger
As a local focused pest control provider, Imperial Pest Prevention delivers structured, results driven termite control in St. Augustine, FL, protecting homes and businesses throughout St. Augustine and St. Johns County. Our goal is simple, stop active termite damage, protect your investment long term, and make the process as clear and straightforward as possible.
We understand how Florida’s coastal humidity, older construction, and mixed building styles create ideal
conditions for both subterranean termites and drywood termites. That is why our termite programs are built around real St. Augustine conditions, not generic one size fits all treatment.
Subterranean Termite Treatments, Soil Barriers and Protection
Subterranean termites are one of the most serious threats to structures in St. Augustine. To protect your property, we design treatment plans that focus on the soil where these termites live and travel.
Our technicians apply professional termiticides to the soil around and beneath your structure, creating a treated zone that termites cannot safely cross. This soil barrier helps stop termites from reaching the wood in your home or business and supports long term protection when combined with ongoing monitoring and good moisture management.
Borate Wood Treatments, Interior and Structural Protection
For many St. Augustine properties, borate treatments are an excellent added layer of defense. We apply borate based products directly to accessible wood, which allows the active ingredient to penetrate and protect the lumber itself.
Borate wood treatments are ideal for
-
Attics
-
Exposed framing
-
New construction and remodels
These products are valued for their low odor, low mammalian toxicity, and strong performance against termites and other wood destroying organisms, which makes them a smart choice for both existing homes and properties under construction.
Spot Treatments, Targeted Solutions for Localized Activity
Not every termite situation requires a full structural program. When activity is limited to a specific area, we may recommend spot treatments.
In these cases, we carefully locate the active zone, then apply termiticide directly into galleries, voids, or localized soil pockets where termites are feeding or traveling. This approach is designed to address the problem area precisely, with minimal disruption to the rest of the structure.
Tent Fumigation in St. Augustine, Whole Structure Drywood Termite Control
For more advanced or widespread drywood termite infestations, tent fumigation can be the most efficient and complete option. During this process, the structure is enclosed, a measured fumigant is introduced, and the gas works through cracks, voids, and inaccessible spaces to eliminate drywood termites throughout the building.
Tent fumigation is often recommended when
-
Drywood activity is found in multiple areas
-
The structure has complex or inaccessible wood members
-
A whole structure solution is preferred for confidence and resale value
Our team will explain when fumigation is appropriate, what to expect, and how to prepare so the process feels manageable from start to finish.
Pre Construction Termite Treatments, Protecting New Builds in St. Augustine
For builders, remodelers, and future homeowners, pre construction termite treatments are one of the best investments you can make. Before the foundation is poured, we treat the soil to create a continuous termite resistant zone beneath the slab and along critical structural elements.
This proactive step helps
-
Reduce the risk of subterranean termite intrusion from day one
-
Support warranty and code requirements where applicable
-
Protect the long term value of the new structure
Pre construction protection pairs well with follow up inspections and future maintenance programs to keep the property protected over its lifespan.

Different Types of Termite Treatments in St. Augustine
In Florida, the warm and humid climate provides an ideal environment for termites to thrive, making termite management a critical concern for homeowners and property managers. Various treatment options are available to combat these destructive pests, each tailored to different types of termite infestations and property needs. Here's an overview of the different types of termite treatments commonly used in Florida:
Borat Trebehandling
Borat er et pulver eller en væske som vi bruker ved Imperial Pest Prevention, som hjelper til med å beskytte treet mot termittangrep og andre treorganismer som ødelegger tre, som for eksempel råtnende sopp. Borater absorberes lett i uferdig tre og skaper en barriere som eliminerer termitter fra å spise de behandlede stedene. Denne termittbehandlingen fungerer best for å beskytte sårbare områder i hjemmet som ikke lett kan repareres, for eksempel undergulv, gulvbjelker, utsatte pigger, krypplassinnramming og terskler, loftstoler og sperrer etc. Boratbehandlinger hjelper til med å stoppe tre, skade insekter som infiserer tilstøtende ubehandlede tresteder. Vi i Imperial Pest Prevention anbefaler denne behandlingen for ethvert gjennomsøkingsrom eller loft. Det fungerer også veldig bra for de som kanskje velger å gjøre ombygging og ønsker å behandle tømmersteder før de forsegles piggene eller rammes inn i en vegg.

En ting som mange kunder liker er det faktum at det er et naturlig utvalg av kontrollen. Borat består av oksygen og bor.
Når termitter lever av behandlet tre, forstyrrer borater sakte metabolske funksjoner i insektet. Fordi det virker sakte, ikke kan påvises for termitter, er termitter sosiale; boratene forhindrer til slutt termittenes evne til å bearbeide mat, noe som får insektene til å sulte i hjel til slutt.
Termite Bait Stations Vs. Væskebehandling
Fra kl. 1989 var klorert hydrokarbon det foretrukne produktet for termittvæskekontroll og en god grunn. Disse produktene var fenomenale ved å kontrollere termitter og varte veldig lenge. De var fantastiske for termittkontroll, men de begynte å dukke opp i kommunal vannforsyningstesting etter hvert som tiden gikk. Åpenbart forårsaket dette en rask stopp og resulterte i et forbud som til slutt resulterte i de forbudte produktene.

Flytende termittbehandling er i dag mest brukt som et forebyggende og korrigerende tiltak for å forhindre eller korrigere underjordiske termitter. Vi i Imperial Pest Prevention bruker ikke-avstøtende behandlingsprodukter som inneholder Fipronil som det av Termidor. Dette valget av produktleverandørers overlegne resultater er kostnadseffektivt for et huseier og har en ekstremt høy suksessrate år etter år mot termitt agnstasjoner. Termittbehandlinger med full service vil variere fra hjem til hjem, avhengig av hjemmets størrelse, hjemmets konstruksjon, etc.
Denne barrieren er designet for å vare i 5 år før den krever ytterligere nybehandling.
Denne barrieren er luktfri, fargeløs og smakløs for termitter, slik at termitter som passerer gjennom en behandlet sone kan bli en uvitende bærer av termittbehandlingen, noe som resulterer i forurensning og utryddelse av hele den infiserte familien av termitter i den kolonien.
Denne effektive termittbehandlingen er også trygg for miljøet uten å forårsake negative miljøreaksjoner.
