Owning a home is a big investment, one that requires ongoing maintenance to keep its value. While some home maintenance makes sense, like inspecting and changing HVAC filters, checking smoke detectors routinely, cleaning buildup on your oven hood, cleaning gutters each spring, and checking for moisture issues inside and outside, some maintenance isn’t as obvious. Termite control is one of them.

Are you aware that termite control is considered “regular maintenance,” by most insurance companies and that termite damage is not usually covered by a homeowners policy? It’s true. Most insurance companies believe it is the homeowner’s obligation to take the steps necessary to avoid termite damage as part of their regular maintenance responsibilities, even though termite control is not a process a homeowner should be doing on their own.

Termite control requires the use of products such as the Sentricon® System with Always Active™, which is not available to consumers, or the application of termiticides, which require specialized equipment such as pumps, large-capacity tanks, masonry drills, soil treatment rods, and more. Not to mention that many gallons of termiticide liquid is required to get the job done. A lot can go wrong with liquid barrier treatments.

The last thing any homeowner needs is to be left holding the bill when termites attack. Subterranean termites cost U.S. property owners billions of dollars every year. And the damage caused by these insects can create structural damage to a home that is unrepairable.

In our Brentwood service area, we help our customers deal with this termite damage loophole by providing effective termite damage control our customers can trust. All-American Pest Control is an Authorized Operator of Sentricon® with Always Active™, which is an environmentally responsible termite control product that requires no drilling, no trenching, no injection of termiticide liquid, and is odor-free. Sentricon® with Always Active™  is so effective, we’re able to offer a $1,000,000 termite damage repair warranty to qualified homeowners. That’s like adding an extension to your homeowner’s insurance policy.

The cost of termite damage is more than the cost associated with all natural disasters combined. Don’t let your home be the next victim of termites. Get essential protection with Sentricon® with Always Active™. Reach out to us today to get answers to any additional questions you may have or to schedule a visit with one of our certified installers.

When you think of the word “carpenter” what do you think of? If you are like most folks, you probably have images of a rugged looking guy wearing Carhartts, wielding a hammer, and standing on a ladder. He is building, or fixing, something, right? Well, carpenter ants do exactly the opposite. They cause damage to buildings by carving out tunnels and galleries inside wooden structures, potentially causing major problems.

Are Carpenter Ants As Bad As Termites?

While it is a well-known fact that termites cost United States home and business owners billions of dollars each and every year, carpenter ant damages ring up in the millions. If a carpenter ant infestation is allowed to go untreated, year after year, a lot of damage can be done. It is best to have a qualified, professional, pest control company do an inspection and take care of your carpenter ant problem before it gets out of hand.

Carpenter Ant Indicators And Damage

If you have these wood-destroying ants chewing away at your equity, you will probably see evidence of their presence long before you see the actual damage they cause.

Indicators

• Little piles of wood shavings underneath wooden items. These ants do not eat wood, so they need to put the tiny pieces somewhere. They kick this “frass” out of “kickout holes” where they make little piles.

• Flying ants. If you see these crawling around, you may have an infestation inside your walls.

• Large black ants crawling around. If you see one or two of these ants exploring your kitchen, there are likely hundreds, or even thousands, crawling around inside your walls.

Damage

• Carpenter ants damage wood by the tunnels and galleries they create. Carpenter ants do not actually eat they wood, they simply tunnel through it, in doing so, the structural integrity of your home will be compromised.

• If carpenter ant damage is allowed to continue for many years, structural problems can occur. This may mean that windows and doors no longer function properly and walls, ceilings, and floors develop warping.

Prevention Tips

• Fill in all gaps, cracks, and holes in your foundation and outer walls. This will go a long way toward keeping all kinds of ants and other household pests, out of your home.

• Eliminate moisture problems around your perimeter. Moisture can soften the wood of your home, which makes it easier for carpenter ants, termites, and other pests to chew their way in.

• Eliminate food sources by cleaning up food spills and crumbs inside your home. Carpenter ants do not need to find food inside your home to set up housekeeping in your walls, but it is convenient for them and could give them a food source to allow them to be active in the winter.

Carpenter ants are only one of many pest ants we deal with in Middle TN. We’ve compiled a simple list to help you understand which ants you may be dealing with. Ants can be difficult to identify. If you need assistance from a trained professional, give us a call. We’ll help you determine which ants you are dealing and, more importantly, how to get rid of them!

There are a lot of pests that can get into your Franklin home. Some come to bite or sting you. Some come to bite or sting your pets. Some damage your belongings Some damage the structure of your home and eat away at your equity. Some spread allergens and harmful bacteria. Others bring with them dangerous human pathogens.

That is why every home in Middle Tennessee should have a year-round pest control plan that is preventative and proactive. We believe our Perimeter Plus pest control program meets this important need.

Guarding against pest threats isn’t easy. Bugs can come up from the ground and chew their way into your home. Rodents sneak along your foundation walls in the middle of the night and use their strong teeth to chew their way in through vulnerable spots. Cockroaches climb walls, run across ceilings, and compact their bodies to squeeze through cracks half their height–good luck trying to keep those dirty insects out. And, of course, many bugs fly. Sealing up the gaps and cracks in your home just isn’t enough. The experts here at All-American Pest Control have a solution that will give you the best chance of keeping those pests out. It’s called Perimeter Plus.

When you invest in Perimeter Plus, it is like putting a shield of protection around your home. During routine visits, your certified pest control technician will make three trips around your home. The first trip around will be for spider web removal. The second trip will be to apply a treatment. The third will be to apply a mist. Together, these create a barrier to keep pests from getting into your home. And, if they ever do, no problem. Your technician will return, perform a detailed inspection, and apply interior control methods if needed, such as targeted crack and crevice treatment.

You don’t have to live with pests in your Franklin home. With Perimeter Plus pest control from All-American, you can stop those bugs and rodents in their tracks. Reach out to us today to schedule a free evaluation of your property. We look forward to serving you.

Termites are the single greatest economic pest in the U.S., costing home and business owners billions of dollars yearly. Not only do they consume structures, they also destroy valuable books, documents, and photographs, when given the chance. If you have seen what look like flying ants on your property or, worse, inside your house, you may be looking at termite swarmers. When a termite colony outgrows its present nest, swarmers are produced in order to establish new nests.

Subterranean termites live in family groups called colonies, where each termite in the colony performs a specific job that benefits the colony as a whole. One of these jobs is done by a caste of termites called reproductives, otherwise known as swarmers or alates. These are the flying-ant-like creatures you may see in the spring or fall.

These swarmers generally emerge in the daylight hours in the spring months. They may come up from the soil or emerge in large numbers inside a home and are destined to become kings and queens of new colonies. During their brief flight from the old colony, the winged termites will pair up and begin looking for a place to begin a new family.

Shortly after landing, the termite’s wings fall off and the new kings and queens excavate a small chamber in a plot of soft soil. They crawl inside, seal the opening, and mate. They will then spend the rest of their lives out of sight. The queen’s first batch of eggs will be laid within a few days or weeks and a new colony is on its way. A king and queen termite will often survive for a decade, reproducing the entire time, unless arrested.

Signs Of A Termite Infestation

• Swarmers. These flying termites are an important warning sign but they are often missed since swarms are brief.

• Shed wings. These may be found on foundations, windowsills, decks, or other nearby places after swarmers have come and gone.

• Mud tubes on foundation walls. If you have a mature colony living inside your walls, you may see pencil thin tubes made of mud reaching from the soil up to the wood of your home.

• Termite damage in a moist, shady spot. The outside of your home may have a spot that looks like a thousand knives have attacked it.

What To Do If You See The Signs

The best time to attack a termite problem is before it starts. The second best time to deal with one is just as soon as you become aware there is a problem. Having a year-round termite control plan in place before an infestation occurs can save you hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars in repairs in the long run. And jumping to action as soon as you see the signs can also save you thousands. If an infestation is allowed to continue unhindered, it will eventually lead to doors and windows that don’t work properly, walls, ceilings, and floor that sag and bulge, and other structural problems.

If you see termite swarmers inside or around your home, it is time to call in the professionals to do a thorough inspection and put termite protection in place. Reach out to All-American Pest Control today with questions or to schedule service.

Everybody knows that April showers bring May flowers. But spring flowers and flowering trees are not the only thing those April showers are going to bring. Let’s take a look at what moisture does to inspire pests. And, more importantly, what we can do to deter them.

How Those Showers Best, Bring Forth Moisture Pests

April showers bring forth various moisture pests such as earwigs and silverfish, as well as other pests like those termites and carpenter ants. How? Well, as we all know, rainy weather makes things wet, and when things get wet, pests are more likely to come in close to your home, especially if conditions are right to keep moisture in your yard and close to your home. If your yard has many places where water can pool, then mosquitoes will be glad to lay their eggs there. If you have leaf litter and tangled weeds where moisture collects underneath, then those earwigs and silverfish will love you for it. And if water is allowed to run down the sides of your home, creating soft wood and rotting areas, then termites and carpenter ants will make quick work in chewing their way in. But, be comforted in knowing that there are several steps you can take that will make your wet yard (and wet house) not so wet, and not so appealing to spring pests.

Springtime Prevention Is Worth A Mention

• Declutter. Make sure everything that allows water to pool in your yard is removed.

• Remove. If you have leaf piles, areas of overgrowth, or other things that trap moisture underneath, move them from off your property or, at least, away from your perimeter.

• Trim. Cut back all vegetation away from your foundation and walls, so things can dry out.

• Replace. If you have mulch, consider replacing it with a dry material such as crushed rock.

• Fill. Inspect the outside of your foundation and walls and fill in any gaps, cracks, or holes you find.

• Fix. If you have broken or clogged gutters, leaky spigots or hoses, make repairs so that moisture is properly taken care of.
