How We Address Termites in Birmingham & Beyond
At Pest X, we take a detailed approach to safeguarding homes in Birmingham and the surrounding areas from termite damage. Against such a persistent pest, we take no chances. Our termite control services are thorough and designed to provide adequate, long-lasting protection.
Here are the steps we take to tackle your termite problems:
- Inspection: We thoroughly inspect your property to identify signs of termite activity and assess at-risk areas.
- Termite trenching: As an effective barrier method, we dig a trench around the perimeter of your home and treat the soil with termiticides, creating a powerful defense against termite invasion.
- Bait systems: We strategically place bait systems around your property. These baits attract termites and deliver a slow-acting toxin that they carry back to their colony, eliminating it from the inside out.
- Spot treatments: For areas with active infestations, we apply focused treatments to eradicate termites on contact.
- Monitoring: We install monitoring stations around your home to monitor termite activity and maintain the efficacy of our treatments.
Our methods are designed to handle the unique challenges posed by different types of homes. For older homes, we offer tailored solutions to address existing structural vulnerabilities. We also provide pre-treatments for new construction projects, laying the groundwork for a termite-free home from the beginning.

Signs You Have Termites
The sooner you alert a pest control company about termites, the better. Unfortunately, termites are known as “silent destroyers” for a reason. They are difficult to detect until significant damage has already been done. Homeowners often realize they have termites when there’s visible damage; by then, they’re facing expensive repairs. You can prevent this by recognizing these signs early and acting quickly.
Here’s what to look for:
- Mud tubes: Termites build these pencil-sized tubes as protective tunnels between their nests and food sources. These structures are often found on foundations, walls, or in crawl spaces.
- Discarded wings: After swarming, termites shed their wings. Finding piles of these wings near windowsills, doors, or other entry points indicates termite presence.
- Hollow wood: Tapping on wooden structures and hearing a hollow sound could mean termites have consumed the wood from the inside out, leaving only a thin veneer.
- Frass (termite droppings): Drywood termites push their droppings out of small holes near the nest. These droppings look like small, wood-colored pellets and often accumulate in small piles.
- Blistered or buckling wood: Termites damage wood beneath the surface, leading to blistered or uneven wood flooring and walls.
- Tight-fitting doors and windows: Termites produce moisture when they eat through wood, causing the wood to swell and making doors or windows difficult to open.
Whether you need a one-time treatment or want us to make repeat visits to monitor the situation, we’re here for you. Speak to one of our experienced Jasper termite technicians today about your concerns and rest easy knowing your home is in good hands with Pest X.
