Termite Inspection in New Iberia

Xeno Exclusion — Termite Inspection services in New Iberia

A termite inspection is us walking your property looking for activity, damage, and the conditions that invite both. Some inspections are routine checks, some are tied to a closing date, and some start because somebody saw something they didn't like at dusk.

Which ones you get here

• Real estate closing inspection: Tied to a sale date, so it follows a specific form and covers every pier, slab edge, and crawlspace access point whether or not anything looks wrong.
• Swarm-triggered inspection: Called in after someone sees winged termites at dusk in late spring, so the focus is finding the colony that produced them, not just the wings on the sill.
• Routine or follow-up inspection: Done on a house already under watch, so it's mostly checking bait stations and known conducive spots rather than searching the whole structure cold.
• Pre-renovation inspection: Done before a wall or floor gets opened up for remodel work, so it's concentrated on that one section instead of the whole house.

What termite inspection involves

1. Exterior perimeter walk: We go around the foundation and piers looking for mud tubes, soil contact with wood, and anywhere the slab edge is hidden by mulch or siding.
2. Crawlspace and sub-floor: On raised houses we get underneath with a flashlight and a probe, checking joists, sills, and support piers for soft wood or tube trails.
3. Interior and attic check: Inside, we probe baseboards, window and door frames, and attic framing, tapping for the hollow sound that means wood's been hollowed from within.
4. Written findings: We note what we found, where, and any conducive condition like standing moisture or wood-to-soil contact that's inviting trouble even if nothing's active yet.

When you need it

• Winged termites showing up near windows or porch lights in the evening, usually late spring.
• A scatter of shed wings on a windowsill or caught in a web, with no bugs left behind.
• Mud tubes running up a pier, foundation wall, or slab edge.
• Baseboard or trim that gives under a thumb, or paint that looks bubbled for no reason.

What changes the job

Size depends on how the house is built and how much of it we can get to. A pier-and-beam house gives us a crawlspace to search properly; a slab house hides more than it shows. Older homes in town often have additions and repairs stacked over decades, each one a place damage can hide. Humidity here runs year-round, so moisture-related conducive conditions turn up in every season, not just after a storm.
