Termite Inspection
A termite inspection usually covers the foundation, the slab edges or crawl space, the garage, the attic, places where wood meets soil, and leaks or other moisture sources. You should come away knowing what was found, which kind of termite is involved and what the provider recommends. For a home sale, ask whether the provider issues the FDACS WDO report.

Drywood Termite Treatment
Drywood termites form small colonies inside a single piece of wood and need no contact with soil. UF/IFAS gives May to June as the flight season for the West Indian drywood termite in Florida. Small pellets below trim are a common clue. Tent fumigation is not offered through this site.

Subterranean Termite Treatment
Subterranean termites in Florida, including native Reticulitermes and the Formosan termite, build large colonies underground with access to soil and moisture, reaching wood through mud tubes. Providers often use soil treatments or bait systems; ask the provider what will be applied near the home and how long to keep clear.

Rental Property Termite Treatment
In Palm Bay, 20.3 percent of occupied homes are rented and 11.3 percent of units sit in buildings with two or more units, so a termite report may pass from a tenant to an owner or manager. The tenant reports signs, the owner arranges access, and a provider inspects the home and any shared walls.

Termite Re-Treatment
Many providers offer renewable warranties or re-treatment plans, and the terms differ from one company to the next. Ask what the plan covers, how long it runs, what renewal involves and how often the home is re-inspected. The provider sets those terms; this site promises none of them.

What a Typical Termite Job Looks Like
Inspect and Identify
The provider checks the foundation, slab edges, garage, attic and any wood touching soil, then confirms whether drywood or subterranean termites are present. Ask to see the evidence.
Clear the Access
Move stored boxes away from garage walls, clear a path to the attic hatch and under sinks, and keep mulch back from the slab. Leave mud tubes intact, skip store sprays, and follow the provider's instructions first. Mention any recent plumbing or roof leaks.
Treat the Activity
The provider uses the method that fits: a soil treatment around the foundation, bait stations, or spot work in a single piece of wood. Ask what goes on near the home and how long to keep clear.
Monitor and Renew
Bait stations are checked over time, and many providers offer renewable warranties or re-treatment plans. Ask what the terms cover, how long they run, what renewal involves and how often the home is inspected. Keep the plan paperwork somewhere safe.
Every provider sets its own plan, but most termite jobs move through these four stages. Before anything begins, have the provider walk through each stage, with its timing and any later inspections.
Why use this site
Why Call Through This Site
Looking for termite control in Palm Bay, FL can mean sorting through a long list of company names. This site keeps it to one number: the call goes to an independent provider serving your part of the city, and booking afterward is your decision.
Check the FDACS License First
Before work starts, look the company up in the FDACS AES Licensing Portal. Florida licenses termite work under its own category, Termites and wood-destroying organisms (WDO), so ask for a certified operator in it. No provider is licensed, vetted or endorsed by this site.
Find the Termites Before Treating
Expect the provider to look for evidence first: mud tubes, hollow-sounding wood, pellets or shed wings. Winged termites have straight antennae, a thick waist and wings of equal length, while flying ants have bent antennae and a pinched waist. Ask to see each sign they point to.

One number serves 32905, 32907, 32908 and the Palm Bay part of 32909, with calls connected 7 a.m. to 1 a.m. Eastern Time (8 a.m. to 2 a.m. during daylight saving time).
When do termites swarm in and around Palm Bay?
UF/IFAS gives statewide timing rather than a Palm Bay list. In Florida, Formosan subterranean termites usually swarm from early April to late June, shortly after sunset, peaking in May. Native Reticulitermes flavipes flights run from early January to April, often on warm afternoons after rain. UF/IFAS adds that it is always termite season in Florida.
Should I choose bait stations or liquid treatment?
Both are common for subterranean termites. A liquid soil treatment creates a treated zone around the foundation, while bait stations sit around the home and are monitored over time. The provider recommends a method after the inspection, so ask why it fits your home and what will be applied near it.
Is a termite inspection needed for a home sale?
That is up to the buyer, lender or contract; nothing here is legal advice. In Florida, a WDO inspection for a real estate transaction is reported on FDACS Form 13645 under Rule 5E-14.142, and filling it out requires special WDO certification. Ask whether the provider issues that report.
Do I need to leave my home while termites are treated?
Often not for long, but the method decides and the provider gives the directions. Soil work happens along the outside of the foundation, bait stations go into the yard, and drywood spot work stays in the affected wood. Ask which areas people and pets should avoid, and for how long. Tent fumigation is not offered through this site.
Can termites return after treatment?
They can. A missed part of a colony, a new swarm or fresh moisture by the slab can bring activity back, which is why bait stations are monitored and many plans include later checks. Warranty and re-treatment terms belong to each provider, so ask how long coverage runs, what renewal involves and what happens if termites show up again.
