Houston Homeowners on Our Termite Extermination Service
Same-Day Response Effective Results 5-Star Rated
“I was panicked when I saw mud tubes running up my interior wall. Resolve came out same-day, identified it as a Formosan colony, and had a treatment plan ready on the spot. Professional and calm under pressure.”
“David exterminated a subterranean termite infestation that three different over-the-counter treatments had failed to touch. Sometimes you need a professional with the right products. Resolve was worth every dollar.”
Our Termite Extermination Methods
The right extermination method depends on the species and the extent of the infestation — we inspect first, then apply the correct solution.
Liquid Termiticide Barrier
A continuous zone of professional-grade termiticide around the foundation eliminates foragers on contact and reaches the colony over time.
Bait Station Extermination
In-ground stations attract foraging termites with a slow-acting colony-eliminating agent — particularly effective for Formosan termite colonies.
Spot and Void Treatment
Targeted chemical injection directly into infested wood or wall voids for localized drywood termite activity.
Combined Approach
For severe infestations or Formosan colonies, a liquid barrier plus bait stations delivers faster elimination and longer protection.
Pre-Treatment for New Construction
Soil treatment before concrete pours prevents subterranean termites from establishing beneath new construction.
Follow-Up Confirmation
We return after treatment to confirm extermination is complete — and offer a warranty if any activity returns.

Case Study
Same-Day Extermination Stops Active Formosan Colony
The Problem
A Deer Park homeowner discovered termite swarmers in their living room and mud tubes in two locations. They had tried two over-the-counter termiticide sprays over the prior month, but swarmers continued to appear.
Our Solution
Resolve's same-day inspection identified an active Formosan colony with two entry points at the rear foundation. A liquid barrier was applied around the full perimeter and two bait stations were placed at the active foraging areas.
The Outcome
Swarmer activity stopped within two weeks. The 90-day follow-up confirmed no active activity at either entry point. The customer enrolled in annual monitoring to prevent re-entry from neighboring properties.
Termite Exterminator FAQs
How fast can a termite exterminator respond?
Resolve offers same-day and next-day scheduling across Greater Houston. Call or text (832) 519-6650 and we will confirm availability. For active infestations with visible damage, we prioritize fast response.
Can a termite exterminator eliminate a Formosan colony?
Yes. Formosan colonies require a more aggressive approach due to their size and activity level. A combined liquid barrier and bait station system is often the most effective strategy. Resolve has extensive experience with Formosan termites in the Houston area.
How long does extermination take to work?
Forager activity typically slows within days of a liquid barrier application. Full colony elimination can take 2–8 weeks depending on colony size and species. Bait station programs eliminate colonies more gradually but offer ongoing protection.
Do I need to leave my home during termite extermination?
For liquid barrier and bait station treatments, you can typically re-enter within 30–60 minutes of the product drying. We provide specific re-entry instructions before treatment begins based on the product used and the areas treated.
How much does a termite exterminator cost in Houston?
Extermination cost depends on your property's size, species identified, and treatment method. Inspection starts at $175 + tax, credited toward treatment. Resolve provides a written quote before any work begins — no verbal estimates.
