HOW DOES PARAMOUNT GET RID OF TERMITES?
TERMITE SOIL TREATMENT – This creates an invisible barrier around your house, preventing termites from entering and providing lasting protection immediately. It works indoors, outdoors, and close to your home’s foundation to give total coverage. Lasting protection means fewer treatments are needed.
TERMITE BAIT STATION MONITORING – Using non-chemical ground monitors, we scan for termite activity near your home. This will help to indicate possible areas of activity, and highlights points of entry. Ground monitors can also be used to control termite population with bait stations.
TERMITE VOID TREATMENTS
We use the latest techniques for treating empty spaces in both interior and exterior walls, under concrete slabs, and around pipes and fittings. This controls termite populations seen on windowsills, baseboards, and hard-to-reach areas. Our techniques are highly effective without being too invasive.

Residual treatments – Takes care of termites and protects your property long after we’ve left.

TERMITES & TERMITE DAMAGE
Termite Swarmer
Name: Eastern Subterranean Termite
Appearance: The termite that invades homes and businesses in New Jersey is the “subterranean termite.” Termite colonies exhibit a caste system in which individuals with physically distinct characteristics perform specific tasks. “Worker” termites are pale white in color and are wingless; “reproductive” termites have a long set of thin wings and can be distinguished from flying ants by their wide waist and straight antennae; “soldier” termites are darker in color and easily recognizable by their elongated heads and mandibles.
Subterranean Termite Soldier
Habit: Subterranean termites form colonies underground and search for food year-round. They build tunnels though the soil to reach food areas, and will often build mud tubes up walls and across wood beams to reach a food source that is above ground. They build these mud tubes to protect themselves from the elements, as they need a high moisture level to survive and will die if exposed for long periods. Seeing mud tubes inside you homes basement or along foundation walls is a sign that you likely have a termite problem.
Termite Mud Tubes
Diet: Wood/Cellulose material. Especially wood with a high moisture content.
Reproduction: An established termite colony will generally contain a queen, along with several supplementary reproductives. A queen has the ability to lay thousands of eggs over her lifespan, leading to colony that can be massive in size. Growth rate from adolescent to adult stages varies depending on species and environmental factors. Subterranean termites do not actually live inside of the wood they are feeding on, they live in the soil and use mud tubes to travel back and forth from from their food source.
