Pinellas Park Pest Control and Termite Treatment: Free Inspection, Straight Answer
A Philadelphia publisher named F. A. Davis bought twelve thousand eight hundred acres here around 1911 and sold lots to northerners with brochures about the winter weather. The town incorporated in 1914 and has been building ever since.
Call 727-462-0400The inspection is free. We come out, look at what you've actually got, and tell you straight. If it turns out you don't have termites, we'll tell you that too, and you're out nothing.
A century of housing, all at once
Because Pinellas Park has been filling in continuously since 1911, you get every decade represented on the same map. Some streets are original colony-era stock. Some went up last year. Pinellas County's median build year is 1977, and Pinellas Park has plenty on both sides of that line.
That's why the neighborhood average tells you nothing useful about your house. Drywood termites live inside the wood, so what matters is your framing and how long it's been there, not what year the street was platted. It's a question we can only answer by getting in the attic.
Tent or tentless
Fumigation kills what's in the structure the day we do it. Then the tarps come off, the gas goes with them, and the next swarm finds the same house waiting.
We've done whole house tentless treatments since 2003. Borate goes into the wood and stays put, and nothing is known to take it out. The wood itself stops being somewhere a termite can live, and you stay in the house the entire time.
Either way, ask whether it's the whole house or just the spot. Most companies do the spot.
Roaches and ants
Palmetto bugs come in from outside. German roaches want a cleanout on your end and monthly visits on ours. Ants are a species question before they're a treatment question.
Regular service lays a treated band about four to six feet around the foundation, wall and ground, and covers eaves, mulch, and shrubs.
What it runs
Termites price on square footage under roof, garage and porch included. The house moves the number, so nothing gets quoted by phone. General pest depends on the property.
The guarantees
On termite work: if the bugs come back, so do we. No additional cost during the warranty year, carryable for life.
On general pest control: one hundred percent happy or you don't pay a penny.
Here's the honest reason not to sit on it. A drywood colony takes about five years to get big enough to throw swarmers, the winged ones that leave and start new colonies somewhere else in your house. Once that starts, one colony becomes several, and several becomes dozens. Caught early it's a straightforward job. Caught late, I've seen it take years to track them all down. That's not a sales line. That's just how they work.
Call and we'll come look. The look costs you nothing.
