Our technicians treat 4 to 5 termite jobs every single day. Homes. Businesses. Industrial buildings. We see it all.
That volume matters. It means our team has inspected thousands of Arizona properties and knows exactly what to look for. We know where termites hide in block construction. We know how they behave during monsoon season. We know the difference between an active infestation and old damage.
If you think you have termites, you probably want answers fast. We can help.

Treatment
Termites in Arizona
Arizona has three main termite species that damage structures. Homeowners across the Valley, from Mesa to Scottsdale, deal with termite activity year-round. Each species behaves differently and requires a different treatment approach.
Subterranean termites cause the most damage in our area. They live underground and build mud tubes to reach the wood in your home. These colonies can contain hundreds of thousands of termites. A mature colony can eat about a pound of wood per day.
Drywood termites don't need soil contact. They live inside the wood they eat and are harder to detect. You might notice small piles of pellets (their droppings) near windowsills or door frames.
Desert dampwood termites prefer wood with high moisture content. They're less common but show up in homes with plumbing leaks or poor drainage.
Our technicians identify which species you're dealing with before recommending treatment. This matters. The wrong approach wastes time and money.
Warning Signs of Termite Activity
Termites work quietly. Most homeowners don't notice them until the damage is already done. Here's what to watch for:
Mud tubes on your foundation. Subterranean termites build these pencil-sized tunnels to travel between soil and wood. Check your foundation walls, garage, and any areas where concrete meets wood.
Hollow-sounding wood. Tap on baseboards, door frames, and window sills. Termite-damaged wood sounds hollow or papery.
Discarded wings near windows and doors. Termites swarm in spring and fall. After mating, they shed their wings. Piles of wings are a clear sign of nearby activity.
Bubbling or peeling paint. This can indicate moisture from termite tunnels beneath the surface.
Tight-fitting doors or windows. Termite damage can warp frames and make doors stick.
If you see any of these signs, call us. We offer free termite inspections and can tell you exactly what's going on.
Why Termite Damage Is Serious
Termites cause more property damage in Arizona than fires, floods, and storms combined. According to the University of Arizona, termites are regarded as one of the major pests in urban environments because of their devastating effects on wood structures. Most homeowner's insurance policies don't cover it.
The real problem is timing. Termites can feed on your home for months or years before you notice. By then, the repair bill can run into thousands of dollars. We've seen floor joists eaten through. We've seen support beams that crumbled when touched. We've seen damage that cost more to fix than the original treatment would have.
Early detection saves money. That's why we recommend annual termite inspections for every Arizona home.
Commercial and Industrial Termite Control
We don't just treat homes. About half of our termite work is commercial and industrial properties. Restaurants. Warehouses. Office buildings. Retail spaces.
Commercial properties face unique challenges. Larger footprints mean more potential entry points. Business operations can't always shut down for treatment. Multiple stakeholders need clear communication.
Our technicians handle all of it. We work around your schedule, provide detailed documentation for property managers, and offer ongoing monitoring programs for large facilities.

HOW WE WORK
1
Full Property Inspection
Our technicians inspect your foundation, crawl spaces, attic, garage, and landscaping. We look for active termites, evidence of past activity, and conditions that attract them.
2
Species Identification
Subterranean, drywood, and dampwood termites each require different treatment methods. We identify which species you have before recommending a solution.
3
Targeted Treatment
For subterranean termites, we use liquid barrier treatments around your foundation. For drywood termites, we use direct wood injection or fumigation depending on severity.
4
Documentation & Warranty
You receive a detailed report showing what we found, what we treated, and what to watch for. Most treatments include warranty coverage for your protection.
LUNAR PEST EXPERIENCE
Protecting Your Home Long-Term
Professional treatment handles the immediate problem. These steps help prevent termites from coming back:
Keep wood away from your foundation. Firewood, lumber, and mulch should be stored at least 20 feet from your home. Wood-to-soil contact is an open invitation for subterranean termites.
Fix moisture problems. Repair leaky faucets, AC drip lines, and irrigation systems. Make sure water drains away from your foundation. Moisture issues attract termites and other pests like scorpions that prey on insects.
Seal cracks in your foundation. Termites can enter through gaps as small as 1/32 of an inch.
Remove dead trees and stumps. These are termite magnets. Once a colony establishes nearby, your home is next.
Schedule annual inspections. Catching termite activity early can save you thousands in repair costs.

Don’t just take our word for it
Most residential treatments take 2 to 4 hours depending on the size of your home and the treatment method. You can usually return to normal activity the same day. Fumigation for drywood termites takes longer and requires you to leave the property for 2 to 3 days.
Cost depends on your home's size, construction type, and the extent of the infestation. We provide free inspections and written estimates before any work begins. Most homeowners spend between $500 and $2,000 for liquid barrier treatment.
For most liquid treatments, no. Our technicians apply product around the exterior of your home and you can stay inside. Fumigation is different. You'll need to leave for 2 to 3 days and remove pets, plants, and food items.
We recommend annual inspections for all Arizona homes. Termites are active year-round here, and early detection makes treatment easier and cheaper. Some home warranties and real estate transactions require recent inspection reports.
Liquid barrier treatments last 5 to 10 years when applied correctly. Bait stations provide ongoing protection as long as they're maintained. Without treatment, termites will return. Arizona's climate and soil conditions make termite pressure constant.
