Wylie, TX Termite Treatment
Termite Solutions for Collin County Customers
If you've noticed swarming termites flying through the air, mud tubes on your exterior walls, hollow wood, or termite droppings around your property, then you’re likely dealing with a termite infestation. Termites are stubborn pests that can be hard to truly get rid of – even completely destroying a colony won’t stop a new one from forming.
Dealing with termites can be a nightmare for any property owner. That’s why All Pest Solutions offers termite treatment services designed to address infestations, providing effective short-term termite solutions and long-term termite protection. No matter what variety of termites you’re dealing with, we’ll work hard to eliminate colonies and prevent future invasions.
What Kinds of Damage Can Termites Cause?
Termites feed on wooden components of buildings, such as beams, flooring, and walls. This feeding weakens the structural integrity of the wood, making it brittle and prone to collapse. In severe cases, the damage can make buildings unsafe to occupy. The destruction isn’t always immediately visible, as termites typically consume wood from the inside out, making regular inspections crucial for early detection.
Termites can also damage furniture, books, sheetrock, trim and cabinetry. They can also create unsightly mud tubes and swarm castles, spoiling the appearance of your home. Addressing termite issues promptly with professional treatment is essential to mitigate these damages and preserve your property's value and safety.

Is Termite Pretreatment Necessary?
Understanding Termite Control
Termite control involves knowing termite feeding habits, nest-building behavior, and the severity of the infestation. Pretreating wood is crucial to reducing termite populations before invasive measures, which are more effective and less risky when termites are less active.
Our Termite Pre-Construction Treatment Process
For new constructions, termite pretreatment is essential and typically involves wood treatments, liquid methods, or baiting systems. In Texas, some form of termite treatment is usually required for new builds.
- Wood Treatments: Common, economical, and provides a wide application window.
- Conventional Liquid Methods:
- Under-Slab Surface Pretreat: Applied directly under the slab.
- Post-Exterior Liquid Application: Applied externally if initial treatments are missed.
We enhance our service by combining wood treatments with liquid methods around plumbing and avoiding staining dye markers, so homeowners can proceed with floor sealing without concerns.
- Termite Baiting Systems: Installed after final grading and landscaping, just before obtaining the Certificate of Occupancy (CO).

Common Types of Termites We See in Texas
North Texas is home to a diverse range of termites, each with unique characteristics. Understanding these different species can help you identify potential infestations and take the appropriate actions to protect your property.
Collin County is home to several termite varieties, including:
- Subterranean termites: These termites build extensive underground colonies and usually enter homes through soil contact. They are the most destructive species, known for creating mud tubes to reach food sources.
- Drywood termites: Unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites do not need soil contact. They can infest dry wood structures and are often spotted in attic beams and furniture through their frass, which resembles tiny wood pellets.
- Dampwood termites: Preferring moisture-rich wood, dampwood termites typically infest areas with high humidity or water damage. They are larger than other termite species and are often found in basements or near leaky pipes.
- Formosan termites: A particularly aggressive and invasive species, Formosan termites are known for their large colonies and ability to consume wood rapidly. They often make carton nests inside structures, leading to significant damage.
Knowing what kinds of termites you need to watch out for can help you recognize infestations earlier and get prompt, effective treatments from All Pest Solutions.
When Are Termites Most Active?
Termites in Texas are most active during the warmer months of the year, typically from spring through early fall. During this period, the temperature and humidity levels are ideal for termites to breed, form new colonies, and forage for food. Subterranean termites, the most common type found in our community, often swarm after spring rain showers, as the wet soil provides an optimal environment for their activities.
While termites are generally more active in warmer weather, it's important to note that they can be a year-round threat. When winters are mild, termites can continue causing damage even during the colder months, especially if they have already established colonies within your home's warmer, protected areas. Regular inspections and preventative measures can help you make sure that termite activity is detected and addressed early, preventing extensive and costly damage.
