Termites in Alabama: What You Need to Know

Alabama ranks among the highest-risk states for termite activity in the United States. Our warm temperatures, high humidity, and abundant wood sources create ideal conditions for termite colonies to thrive. The River Region is particularly susceptible due to our proximity to rivers and streams, which provide the moisture termites need.

Fungus

Fungal growth is commonly found in areas with excess moisture such as crawl spaces. Over time, certain fungi can contribute to wood deterioration if conditions remain favorable. At Pest Pro, we perform thorough inspections, take moisture readings, and determine whether treatment or corrective measures are needed to address the issue and help prevent future growth.

Moisture Barrier (Vapor Barrier)

Moisture barriers, sometimes called vapor barriers, are installed to help control ground moisture and protect the structure of your home. At Pest Pro, we install vapor barriers in accordance with Alabama State Codes using professional grade plastic sheeting of 6 mil thickness or greater. Proper installation helps reduce excess moisture, improve crawl space conditions, and support long term protection of your home.

Signs of Termite Infestation

Termites are often called "silent destroyers" because they can be at work in your home for years before you notice. Watch for these warning signs:

Mud tubes on foundation walls, piers, or in crawl spaces
Swarmers (winged termites) inside your home, especially in spring
Discarded wings near windows, doors, or light fixtures
Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
Bubbling or peeling paint that resembles water damage
Tight-fitting doors or windows due to termite damage warping frames
Frass (termite droppings) — small piles of pellets near wood

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I know if I have termites?

A: The most common signs are mud tubes on your foundation, swarmers (flying termites) inside your home, discarded wings, and hollow-sounding wood. However, termites often go undetected for years. Annual professional inspections are the best way to catch problems early.

Q: How much does termite treatment cost?

A: Treatment costs depend on your home's size, construction type, and the severity of infestation. Most homes in the Montgomery area range from $800-$2,500 for initial treatment, with annual renewal fees of $150-$300. We provide free inspections and detailed quotes.

Q: How long does termite treatment take?

A: Most liquid treatments take 4-6 hours to complete. Bait station installation typically takes 2-3 hours. You can remain in your home during treatment — there's no need to vacate.

Is termite treatment safe for my family?

A: Yes. Termidor and Trelona are both designed to be safe when applied by licensed professionals. Liquid treatments are applied to the soil around your foundation — not inside your living space. Bait stations contain no airborne chemicals.
