Expert Response

We don't maintain a list of pest control companies, nor do we make business recommendations, but you can use either of the resources below to help find a reputable pest control company. We can't identify the termites to species since we do not currently have an entomologist at HGIC, but an experienced pest company will be able to or may have an entomologist accessible in-house or through a lab they can submit samples to that can confirm an ID. Information in the linked termite page above can help you determine what your management options are.
