OCALA SMART TURNERGUARD TERMITE & PEST CONTROL SERVICES

What termite treatment options do you provide?

We’ve found that liquid options are the most effective. Why? Because the liquid is invisible and the targeted termites pass it along throughout their colony, which expedites termite elimination. When you’re covered by SMART TurnerGuard Termite Control, our expert Ocala pest control team will treat your home in multiple places, including in the soil surrounding your home; any crawl spaces; interior points of entry to the home; and barriers between the inside and outside.

We offer a monitoring and detection system, created to catch these destructive termites before they actually become a problem. We also provide environmentally friendly treatment options. And, whenever it’s needed, we provide termite re-treatment at no extra charge. You also receive a lifetime warranty.

To get started on your Ocala termite treatment, simply contact us online.

Why are exterior treatments important?

We make exterior treatments a key part of our pest control services because problems typically start outdoors. During your first visit, though, we’ll treat your home’s interior, then continue with regularly scheduled exterior treatments. Our goal is to provide a long-lasting barrier that prevents pests, such as termites, from ever coming back inside. If you do find pests inside, simply contact us and we’ll provide interior pest control services.

Why do you recommend pest control service three times a year instead of monthly?

At Turner Pest Control Ocala, we recommend only what you need. And, because our exterior pest control treatments have a four-month residual effect, we typically recommend outdoor treatments three times per year because most pest problems start outside your home. If you have a pest problem inside your home in between treatments, we’ll gladly make a free service call and take care of the issue. To make your Ocala pest control appointment, contact us online.

What pest control services does SMART TurnerGuard include?

Our SMART TurnerGuard program offers a wide spectrum of Florida pest control services. In fact, we exclude NO pests. So no matter what kind of pests you have in your home, this plan covers treatment, whether this means bed bug extermination, rodent control, mosquito control, and much more.

We focus treatment on the exterior of your home, since most pest problems start outdoors, using products that have a 90-day residual effect. Then, we apply pest control treatments in multiple places indoors, including hard-to-reach spots. These include:

• around plumbing
• switch plates
• wall voids
• eaves
• windows
• doors

If you experience any issues in between your regularly scheduled visits, that’s no problem. We’ll return to address those problems at no additional cost to you. We also provide green pest control options at no extra charge. To get started with Florida pest control services, we invite you to contact us online.

How many types of termites are in Florida?

Out of the world’s 40+ species of termites, 21 different kinds can be found in Florida and around Ocala. Fortunately, not all are considered to be pests, but those that are can wreak havoc in your home. Each sub-species of termites is a small, soft-bodied insect; they feed on cellulose in wood, including that found in homes’ timber. In Florida, drywood termites seek out dry wood, while dampwood termites, as the name suggests, prefers wet wood in forests. Then there are subterranean termites that like to live in soil and are especially destructive due to the large size of their colonies.
