Drywood Termite Control & Treatment Experts in Florida

Drywood termites are one of the most destructive termite species affecting homes throughout Florida. Unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites live entirely inside wooden structures and do not require contact with soil to survive. Because drywood termites live inside wood, infestations often remain hidden inside walls, attics, and structural framing for long periods of time before homeowners notice visible signs of damage.

My Son & I Pest Control provides professional drywood termite inspections and treatment services designed to identify infestations and eliminate termite colonies before they cause extensive structural damage. Our technicians help homeowners protect their properties throughout South Florida, Tampa Bay, and Central Florida.

UNDERSTANDING DRYWOOD TERMITES

Drywood termites live and reproduce inside dry wooden structures such as framing, flooring, furniture, and trim. Unlike subterranean termites, they do not build mud tubes or rely on soil contact to survive.
These termites are commonly found in areas such as attic framing, wooden beams, wall voids, hardwood flooring, furniture and structural wood.
Because drywood termites live entirely inside wood, infestations often go undetected until damage becomes visible. Over time, these termites create tunnels inside the wood as they feed, weakening the structure of the building.

Signs of Drywood Termite Infestation

Drywood termite infestations often remain hidden until homeowners notice visible signs of activity. Identifying these signs early can help prevent more extensive structural damage.

Common signs of drywood termite activity include:
✔ Termite droppings (frass) near wood surfaces
✔ Discarded termite wings near windows or doors
✔ Small holes in wood structures
✔ Hollow or weakened wood
✔ Swarming termites inside the home

If you notice any of these warning signs, a professional termite inspection can help confirm whether drywood termites are present.

Comprehensive Drywood Termite Control & Treatment Solutions

As a family-owned business, My Son & I Pest Control is committed to providing high-quality termite control services throughout South Florida, Tampa Bay, and Central Florida. Drywood termites live inside wooden structures, which makes proper inspection and treatment critical. Our technicians take a comprehensive approach to termite control by identifying termite activity, applying targeted treatments, and helping homeowners prevent future infestations.

Comprehensive
Inspection

We conduct a detailed inspection of your property to identify drywood termite activity and locate areas where infestations may be present. Our technicians inspect key areas such as attics, wooden framing, trim, and other exposed wood surfaces to determine the extent of termite activity.

Customized Treatment Plan

After the inspection, we develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific termite problem. Depending on the location and severity of the infestation, we may recommend localized wood treatments or whole-structure termite fumigation.

Treatment Application

Our technicians apply targeted treatments designed to eliminate drywood termite colonies within affected wood structures. Treatments may include localized wood treatments or professional structural fumigation when infestations have spread throughout the structure.

Types of Termites We Treat

Florida is home to several termite species capable of causing serious structural damage to homes and businesses. Because each species behaves differently, identifying the type of termite involved is an important step in determining the most effective treatment approach.

Drywood Termites

Drywood termites live entirely inside wooden structures and are one of the most destructive termite species affecting Florida homes. Whole-structure termite tenting and fumigation is often the most effective treatment for eliminating drywood termite infestations.

Subterranean Termites

Subterranean termites live in underground colonies and build mud tubes to reach wooden structures. These termites require moisture to survive and commonly attack foundations and structural framing.

Formosan Termites

Formosan termites are one of the most aggressive termite species and can cause severe structural damage in a relatively short period of time due to their large colony sizes.

Dampwood Termites

Dampwood termites prefer moist or decaying wood and are typically found in areas with water damage or high moisture levels.
