Let’s assume that you just had a full termite treatment completed on your home today. How long will the treatment last? When will you need to have another treatment done?
Assuming that the treatment was done correctly, and per the specs of the label of the product that was used, the length of time before your next actual treatment is going to depend on which product was used for your current termite treatment. Out of the professional grade products that are currently out on the market, there are some that last just a few years, some that last 5 years, some that last 7 years, and even one that lasts 10 years. It’s important to know which product was used, so you can determine when you need to redo the treatment. The products may last a little bit longer than the above stated time frames, but after the above time has lapsed, the manufacturer of the product, as well as the termite company, will generally not accept any responsibility should your home get damaged by termites. It will likely cost more money initially to have your home treated by a 10 year product, but if you are planning on staying in your home, it’s usually the way to go.
