So Simple; So Sweet
I'm hearing a lot of buzz about Orange Oil to kill termites. What is Orange Oil?
Orange Oil is a low-toxicity product that when injected into the galleries of infested wood, will kill termites on contact.

I've heard that Orange Oil can guarantee you won't have termites.
When a termite infestation becomes obvious and all of the infested wood
members are identified, Orange Oil is one of many wood injected termiticides
that kills on contact. However, unless every single wood member within an entire
structure is treated, no product can guarantee that you won't get termites.

What makes Orange Oil different than other products?
All alternative methods and termiticides are high tech and
specifically designed. However, they are not magic wands. The construction of
the structure is key in determining what method(s) to use. The key to successful
localized treatments is having an effective combination of localized alternative
termite tools and the experience and inspecting ability to implement it.
Therefore, Orange Oil, just like the Electro-Gun, Microwave, Heat, Timbor, Foam
and Fumigation when used properly can kill termites and protect your home.
Knowledge is power. And the right power will have termites choke on the
splinters of your home.

As a consumer where can I go to compare facts about termite treatment
methods?
Nowadays, the internet is probably the best one stop shop for
information. Using the methods and/or specific product name as you search words.
Here at Ecola, our website
www.ecolatermite.com is very informative. Also,
www.pestweb.com comparing the MSDS
“Material Safety Data Sheets” of any products is like a side by side comparison
of cars. When the consumer learns the facts, it makes choosing a company that
offers most of the alternative methods, like ECOLA SERVICES, an obvious choice.
With so many termite companies out there, how do I know who I should
call?
If it was my home and I didn't know a termite from a rat, I'd
research the reputation licensing and services available from the list of
company candidates. Yellow page ads usually tell us what services/methods each
company offers. The Structural Pest Control Board handles licenses. As for ECOLA
SERVICES, we were established on 1983.
We are BBB members with an A+ Grade. We have a respected reputation with the
board whenever any issues have arisen and needed to be resolved. I'd also
reference the geographical availability of the company. ECOLA SERVICES has the
capacity to cater from San Luis Obispo to San Diego
