Southern California Termite Control

Environmental Pest Control

If you want to get rid of the pests that infest your home, but you don't want to use chemicals that are harmful to the environment and to yourself to do it, then you need to call Ecola Termite! We offer some extremely effective environmental pest control services, as well as standard chemical and fumigation services. We carry a wide range of products and our exterminators can offer you a range of choices when giving their consultation on your pest problem. The first environmental pest control method that might be offered to you is direct heat. The typical adult male termite cannot withstand temperatures of around 120 degrees F. for more than around 30 minutes. At ten degrees higher most termites and cockroaches die within minutes. Termites are susceptible to heat attack because they are confined to their gallery system, which means that they cannot escape to cooler areas. We raise the room temperature to around 150 degrees for an hour, which is usually enough to kill every termite in the surrounding wood.

The drawback to this process is that all heat-sensitive materials like fine upholstery and papers can be damaged and must be removed from the room. There is also no way to know for certain whether or not the infestation has been completely removed, but the heat method has excellent success rates thus far. When faced with the need for environmental pest control options, we provide Direct Heat as an environmentally friendly approach to extermination. Other popular environmental pest control methods that we offer are electrocution and microwave treatment. Electrocution sometimes involves drilling holes into infected panels, but the electricity that the area is blasted with usually kills all termites in the board immediately. Microwave energy can also be directed at small areas at a time, rapidly raising the temperature of any insects well over the lethal limit. Both of these methods are extremely effective at treating small infections, but less effective at whole home pest control. We also offer many environmental pest control solutions that involve bio-degradable non-residue chemicals like Orange Oil.

This product is a contact pesticide but does not leave a poisonous residue for long. The compound is non-toxic to humans, and bio-degrades by up to 93% over 21 days. This product is catered for in most counties' legislations and can be used safely to kill existing infestations. Orange Oil is not a preventative pest control method. If you have pests in your home, then there is only one name you need to know: Ecola Termite. We offer the best in conventional and environmental pest control solutions at very competitive rates. You can call one of our consultants now to discuss which option would be best for the treatment of the infestation in your home. Don't fight the termites year after year - call Ecola Termite and we will come and get rid of that infestation once and for all!
