Mud tubes running up your foundation are subterranean termites building a protected path from the soil to the wood framing — our inspection traces every tube back to its source before we quote a barrier treatment. A colony can feed on structural wood for years before any visible sign appears on the surface, which is why routine inspection matters even without an active swarm.
A full inspection includes a wood-destroying organism report suitable for real estate closings, at no charge.


Our Termite Control crew is certified specifically for termiticide application, not general pest work.
We keep inspection slots open same-week for Ecorse homeowners seeing mud tubes or wings near windows.
You'll see one written quote before any termiticide is applied — no per-visit billing surprises.
We use moisture meters, sounding hammers, and sometimes thermal imaging to find damage hidden behind finished walls.
Subterranean colonies travel through soil, so barrier treatment is mapped around the entire structure's perimeter.
Stations use a slow-acting bait that colony members share, which can eliminate the nest rather than just the visible tubes.
Drywood termites don't need soil contact, so treatment targets the specific wood member, often with localized injection.
We provide a full written wood-destroying organism report accepted by most lenders as part of closing documents.
We document damage severity so you or your contractor know which framing needs structural attention.
We set up recurring inspection schedules for Ecorse commercial buildings with reports for property records.

Tell dispatch whether it's a swarm sighting or existing damage; swarm calls get expedited scheduling.
Our mobile units carry both liquid termiticide and bait station equipment for Ecorse termite calls.
We trace mud tubes, check for wood-to-soil contact, and identify subterranean versus drywood species before quoting.
Treatment is applied the same visit when possible, with monitoring visits scheduled to confirm the colony is gone.
The WDO report they provided was exactly what our lender needed for closing — saved us from a delay.
Knowing the difference between drywood and subterranean species mattered — our treatment was completely different than what a neighbor got for the same symptom.
As a property manager, having a bonded termite plan on file made our annual insurance review painless.
Bait stations were installed along our property line and the quarterly monitoring checks have been reassuring ever since.

Nex Pest Control dispatches termite-certified technicians throughout Ecorse and nearby communities for both inspections and treatment. Real estate transactions, renewals, and new active infestations all fall under the same Ecorse service area and response timeline.

Termite swarmers have straight antennae and a thick waist, unlike the bent antennae and pinched waist of flying ants.
Treatment differs by species — subterranean gets a soil barrier or bait stations, drywood often gets localized wood treatment.
Yes, a WDO report is standard for most real estate transactions and we can usually schedule it within a few days.
Longevity depends on the product used and soil conditions, which we'll explain based on what's applied to your property.
Exterior barrier treatment usually doesn't require leaving the home, but we'll tell you specifically if your treatment plan does.
If monitoring shows continued activity, we return and address it at no additional charge under your plan.
