Lake Charles gives pests just about everything they want: heat, humidity, water on three sides and a mix of building ages from century-old homes to new construction. Formosan termites are established here and are far more destructive than the native species. Storm repairs over the past several years opened up moisture problems that are still surfacing. We have worked this city long enough to know which neighborhoods bring which problems.
Formosan subterranean termites build far larger colonies than native termites and can do serious damage in a single season. We inspect for both, treat with the colony in mind rather than only the visible activity, and monitor so a new swarm does not go unnoticed.
Historic and mid-century homes here have crawl spaces, raised piers and decades of additions, and post-storm repair work has left plenty of gaps behind new siding and roofing. We inspect those areas specifically, since that is where moisture and pests tend to meet.
German roaches and roof rats thrive in this climate and move easily between attached units and older commercial buildings. We treat the harborage and the entry points rather than spraying surfaces, so populations actually come down and stay down.
Restaurants, offices, rentals and apartment buildings need service that holds up to inspection and does not disrupt operations. We schedule around business hours, document what we do, and treat shared walls and utility chases as part of the same job.
