Inspection should look for access and moisture
EPA termite guidance supports checking drainage, leaks, openings, wood contact, vents, and stored wood conditions that can make structures more attractive to termites.
Evidence-supported guide
What this page covers
Treatment type changes the evidence needed
EPA identifies liquid soil-applied termiticides, termite baits, wood treatments, and treated building materials as treatment categories with different verification needs.
Labels and licensing are not optional
EPA guidance supports using trained pest professionals for many termiticide applications and following product label directions carefully.
Before choosing
Use this practical checklist
- Document visible damage, moisture, drainage, and wood-to-soil conditions.
- Ask whether the plan uses bait, liquid barrier, wood treatment, or non-chemical controls.
- Verify licensing, product label use, reentry guidance, and warranty terms.
