Termite Bait Station Installation in Georgetown

Berry Creek Exclusion — Termite Bait Station Installation in Georgetown

This is the installation of in-ground bait stations around a structure's perimeter to intercept subterranean termites before they reach the wood. It's done as ongoing protection, not as a cure for termites already in the walls.

Which ones you get here

• Eastern subterranean termites: The common one in this county. Colonies are large and the foraging tunnels run wide, so stations go in a full loop around the structure.
• Desert (arid-land) subterranean termites: Smaller, more scattered colonies, often out in the rockier Hill Country soil away from the foundation. Bait uptake is slower and stations sometimes need wider spacing to find activity.
• Active mud tubes found at install: If we find a live tube on a pier or slab edge, we set an above-ground station directly on it instead of relying on the perimeter loop alone.
• Slab-on-grade foundation: No basement, no crawlspace access underneath, so every station goes in the soil around the outside edge, and any walkway or patio in that line gets drilled through.

What termite bait station installation involves

1. Mark the perimeter: We walk the foundation and mark station points at set intervals, working around downspouts, AC pads, and beds.
2. Open the ground: Auger a hole at each mark, or drill through concrete where a driveway, patio, or walkway sits in the line.
3. Set each station: Place the housing in the hole, drop in the monitoring cartridge, and seat it flush with the grade so mowers and foot traffic don't catch it.
4. Map the layout: Number and record every station location on a site map so future checks know exactly where to look.

When you need it

• Winged termites showing up near windows or in the attic in spring.
• Mud tubes running up a foundation pier or along the slab edge.
• A lender or buyer needs an active termite control program in place before closing.
• Old termite damage turned up during other repair work, with nothing currently protecting the house.

What changes the job

Hardscape is the biggest variable. A driveway or patio crossing the perimeter means drilling through concrete instead of soil, which adds time. Expansive clay under a slab shifts over the year and can open new paths for termites to travel, so the layout sometimes needs more stations than a straight perimeter count would suggest. Dense landscaping or buried irrigation lines slow down placement too.
