“We assumed our four-year-old Bridgeland home was termite-safe because it was new construction. David found active subterranean foraging along the rear foundation where the landscaping mulch beds had built up against the slab. He explained the soil treatment gap and applied a full barrier the same week. The 45-day follow-up was completely clean.”
Licensed Termite Control — Cypress, TX
Termite Control in Cypress, TX
Cypress sits on former agricultural land with established subterranean termite colonies in Harris County's heavy clay soil. New slab construction in Bridgeland, Stone Gate, and Blackhorse Ranch does not mean termite-free — improperly treated soil at rough-in and mulch-heavy landscaping create entry pathways within the first few years. Resolve provides licensed termite control for Cypress's master-planned communities — liquid barriers, Sentricon monitoring, and fast WDO reports for an active real estate market.

Cypress Homeowners Recommend Resolve for Termite Control
New Construction Risk Expertise WDO Fast Turnaround No Contracts
“David came out for a WDO inspection on a home we were buying in Cypress Creek Lakes. He found minor evidence in the attic framing and had a treatment plan ready before we even left the property. The inspection fee went toward the treatment, and we closed on time with a clean WDO letter. Straightforward, professional, and no pressure.”
“Saw Formosan swarmers in our garage in May and called David the next morning. He was out that afternoon and confirmed an active colony along the front slab. The barrier treatment was done efficiently and he explained every product he was using. We're now on annual monitoring and feel confident the property is protected.”
Our Termite Control Services for Cypress Homes
Complete termite management from WDO inspection through long-term colony prevention.
WDO Inspection and Report
Licensed wood-destroying organism inspection covering the main structure, foundation perimeter, garage, attic access, and all accessible wood members. The $175 fee is credited toward any treatment booked. Reports delivered promptly for Cypress real estate transaction deadlines.
Liquid Termite Barrier
Full-perimeter Termidor or equivalent termiticide barrier applied along the foundation. Eliminates active subterranean and Formosan colonies and prevents new foraging — essential for Cypress homes on land where soil pre-treatment at construction was incomplete.
Sentricon Always Active Monitoring
In-ground bait stations placed at intervals around the foundation perimeter. Intercepts foraging termites before they reach structural wood and eliminates the colony at the source — ideal for ongoing protection in Cypress's clay-soil environment.
New Construction Termite Risk Assessment
Cypress's rapid development means many homes were built with inadequate soil pre-treatment. David assesses slab penetrations, plumbing access points, and landscaping that may have created moisture pathways into the foundation — the most common termite entry routes in newer Cypress builds.
Formosan Swarm Response
Formosan termites swarm in Cypress from April through June near Cypress Creek corridors. If you find swarmer wings inside your home, that signals a nearby active colony. Resolve provides same-week inspection scheduling during peak swarm season.
Annual Monitoring Re-Inspection
Yearly re-inspection verifies treatment effectiveness and identifies any new colony activity early. In Cypress, where new construction continues to disturb soil throughout the county, annual monitoring is the difference between catching an issue early and facing major structural damage.
How Termite Control Works in Cypress
From first call to long-term protection — a clear process with no hidden steps.

Call (832) 519-6650 or submit a quote request. David schedules Cypress inspections quickly — often same-day or next morning — and works around real estate closing deadlines when needed.
- 2
David inspects the foundation perimeter, garage slab, attic framing, plumbing penetrations, and exterior landscaping. For Cypress properties, he pays particular attention to mulch beds against the slab, irrigation head locations, and soil conditions near retention pond drainage.
- 3
The right treatment is applied based on what was actually found — liquid barrier for active colonies, Sentricon for ongoing prevention, or both for high-risk Cypress properties. Work is completed efficiently with minimal disruption to your landscaping and daily routine.
- 4
A follow-up inspection confirms treatment effectiveness. Annual monitoring plans keep your Cypress home protected through each subsequent Formosan swarm season — no long-term contract required.

Case Study
Cypress: Active Formosan Colony Found During Pre-Sale WDO Inspection
The Problem
A Cypress homeowner listing their six-year-old Stone Gate home scheduled a WDO inspection as required by the buyer's lender. The inspection revealed active Formosan termite mud tubes inside the attached garage along the slab-wall joint and evidence of foraging beneath a rear patio expansion that had been added two years after original construction. The slab extension had been poured over soil that was never treated with termiticide.
Our Solution
David applied a full-perimeter liquid barrier treatment covering the original slab and the patio extension, paying special attention to the gap between the two concrete pours where the Formosan colony had established its primary entry point. Three Sentricon Always Active stations were installed along the rear property line and two more along the garage exterior wall. Treatment documentation was completed within 72 hours to meet the transaction deadline.
The Outcome
The WDO clearance letter was issued in time for the buyer's lender review. A 30-day re-inspection showed no new mud tube activity in any treated area. The buyers' agent requested that the new owners enroll in annual monitoring as a condition of the sale agreement — which they did before closing.
Termite Control FAQs for Cypress, TX
Why do newer Cypress homes still get termites?
Most Cypress subdivisions are built on former agricultural land with established subterranean termite colonies in the clay soil. Soil pre-treatment at construction is required but not always fully applied at every access point. Post-move-in landscaping — especially mulch beds against the slab and irrigation systems near the foundation — creates new moisture pathways that termites exploit within one to three years.
How does Formosan termite activity in Cypress differ from subterranean termites?
Formosan termites are a subterranean species but form much larger colonies — sometimes millions of workers — and cause damage faster than native subterranean species. They are more common near Cypress Creek corridors and swarm from April through June. Both species thrive in Harris County's clay soil and are treated with the same liquid barrier and bait station methods.
What is a WDO inspection and why does my lender require one?
A wood-destroying organism inspection covers all visible termite activity, wood-destroying fungi, and other structural wood concerns in the home. Lenders require a current WDO report because termite damage can significantly reduce property value. Our $175 fee is credited toward treatment if active activity is found, and we deliver reports promptly so closings stay on schedule.
I found swarmer wings in my Cypress home — what should I do?
Swarmer wings found inside your home — typically on windowsills or near light fixtures — indicate an active termite colony nearby or already in your structure. This is not an emergency that requires vacating the property, but it does warrant a same-week inspection. Call (832) 519-6650 and David will schedule an assessment quickly.
Do I need both a liquid barrier and Sentricon, or will one work?
For an active infestation, a liquid barrier provides immediate colony elimination. Sentricon is the preferred long-term prevention tool, intercepting new foraging before it reaches the structure. Many Cypress homeowners benefit from both — particularly those in newer homes where the initial soil treatment may have had gaps.
How long does termite treatment take for a typical Cypress home?
A full-perimeter liquid barrier application for a standard Cypress home takes 4 to 6 hours. Sentricon station installation adds another 1 to 2 hours. David works efficiently to minimize disruption to your landscaping and yard — most Cypress treatments are completed in a single visit.
