Cortez has the feel of an old Florida fishing village salt in the air, boats rolling in and out, and homes that soak up humidity all year long. It’s part of the charm, but it also makes termites incredibly comfortable. They stay active in this area nonstop and often hide deep in the structure long before anything looks wrong.
Step
1
We Start with a Thorough Inspection
Termites like the quiet, shaded corners of Cortez homes areas under decks, beams exposed to sea air, older window frames, attic supports, or spots where moisture settles after storms. We move through each section slowly, using moisture meters and infrared tools when needed. Coastal homes age differently, and we factor that into every inspection.
Step
2
A Treatment Plan That Fits Your Home
Once we know what’s going on, we put together a plan built around your home’s design, age, and the level of activity. Treatments may include:
Liquid barrier treatments to stop termites and eliminate active colonies
Baiting systems to knock down entrenched underground colonies
Spot treatments when the issue is small or localized
Fumigation only when activity is widespread or hidden deep inside structural areas
Everything we use is EPA-approved and safe for families and pets.
Step
3
Full-Term Extermination with Follow-Through
Homes near the water shift with humidity more moisture one week, less the next so we stay on top of the situation after the initial treatment. Follow-up checks make sure the termites are gone and the home stays protected.

Ongoing Termite Protection
Termite pressure almost never lets up in Cortez. Many homeowners choose annual inspections or keep bait systems running year-round to prevent hidden damage from building up.
Salt air and constant humidity soften exposed wood. Termites take advantage of this and feed quietly inside beams, trim, floors, and siding. The damage usually moves faster than homeowners expect because the signs aren’t always obvious on the surface.
Cortez sees mostly Eastern Subterranean termites, but Formosan termites also show up in the region. Formosans build huge colonies and can cause significant structural issues quickly if left untreated.
Soft wood, bubbling paint, mud tubes, hollow-sounding beams, or piles of discarded wings.
Most Cortez homes fall between $600–$2,500 depending on activity level. Every service begins with a free inspection.
Yes. We use EPA-approved products applied with care and proper safety steps.
