Your home is likely one of your biggest investments—and in St. Louis, that investment is always at risk from one tiny but mighty threat: termites.
Why Every St. Louis Homeowner Needs Termite Protection
Did you know that termites cause over $5 billion in property damage every year? Worse yet, most homeowners insurance policies don’t cover this kind of destruction. Termites are silent invaders. By the time you see visible signs, they may have already caused serious (and costly) damage to your home’s structure.
In our area, we’re especially at risk. St. Louis has the kind of warm, humid climate that termites thrive in. In fact, studies have shown there can be 25 or more colonies per acre in areas of high pressure—just imagine how many might be near your yard right now.
Warning Signs to Watch For
While STL Pest Control always recommends a professional inspection, here are a few red flags:
-
Termite swarms, especially after rain
-
Discarded wings on windowsills or floors
-
Mud tubes on your foundation
-
Hollow-sounding walls or sagging floors
If you spot any of these—or if your home hasn’t been inspected in a while—it’s time to take action.
Why Termite Baiting Is a Smart Choice
At STL Pest Control, we use a modern termite bait system that’s proven to protect homes like yours. Here’s how it works:
1. Discreet Installation
We install small bait stations around the outside of your home. They sit flush with the soil—so they won’t get in the way of lawn care or landscaping.
2. Termite Detection & Elimination
Termites find the bait, feed on it, and bring it back to their colony. The special active ingredient in the bait interrupts their growth process, leading to colony elimination—not just temporary relief.
3. Ongoing Protection
Once installed, our team checks and maintains the system yearly, keeping your home protected 24/7.
