Subterranean Termite Treatment in New Iberia

Xeno Exclusion — Subterranean Termite Treatment services in New Iberia

Subterranean termites live in the ground and build mud tubes up into the house to feed on the wood above. We treat the soil and the foundation line itself, not just the wood, because the colony never leaves the dirt. Most of this work happens around the foundation, not inside the house.

Which ones you get here

• Formosan subterranean termites: Colonies run larger here and can build carton nests inside walls, so we check for moisture pockets above ground, not just along the foundation.
• Native (eastern) subterranean termites: Smaller, slower colonies working up from the soil, so a standard perimeter treatment usually covers it without extra interior work.
• Slab-on-grade houses: We drill through the slab or adjoining concrete at intervals to get termiticide under the house, then patch the holes.
• Raised houses on piers: No slab to drill, so the treatment goes into the soil around and under each pier and along the foundation wall.

What subterranean termite treatment involves

1. Locate the activity: We follow mud tubes from the soil line to find where they're entering the wood and how far they've traveled.
2. Trench and drill: We dig a trench along the foundation and, on slab homes, drill through concrete where the soil can't otherwise be reached.
3. Apply the barrier: Termiticide goes into the trench and drill holes to create a treated zone in the soil the termites have to cross.
4. Close up and check: Drill holes get patched, the trench gets backfilled, and we set a point to come back and confirm the activity has stopped.

When you need it

• Mud tubes running up the foundation, a pier, or an exterior wall.
• Discarded wings on a windowsill or porch after an evening swarm.
• A floorboard or door frame that's gone soft or sounds hollow when you knock on it.
• A door or window that's started sticking for no reason you can explain.

What changes the job

A slab home and a raised home are different jobs before we even get to the termites — one means drilling concrete, the other means working the soil under and around the piers. Age matters too: older foundations have more joints and utility entry points for termites to use, and once we open a wall or pull a baseboard we sometimes find damage that was never visible from outside. A crawlspace that's hard to get into adds time; one that's open and dry doesn't.
