Discarded wings near a window in spring is a termite swarm, not flying ants, and it means a mature colony is already established somewhere in the structure. A colony can feed on structural wood for years before any visible sign appears on the surface, which is why routine inspection matters even without an active swarm.
A full inspection includes a wood-destroying organism report suitable for real estate closings, at no charge.


Every technician performing Sanford termite inspections carries state licensing for wood-destroying organism reporting.
Swarm season calls get priority scheduling since active swarmers mean a mature colony needs attention quickly.
Liquid barrier and bait station pricing is quoted after inspection, tied to linear footage and species found.
We use moisture meters, sounding hammers, and sometimes thermal imaging to find damage hidden behind finished walls.
A liquid barrier is trenched and applied along the full foundation line, not just the section where mud tubes were spotted.
Stations use a slow-acting bait that colony members share, which can eliminate the nest rather than just the visible tubes.
Drywood termites don't need soil contact, so treatment targets the specific wood member, often with localized injection.
Photos of any damage found are included in the report so buyers and agents see exactly what was inspected.
Moisture meters and sounding tools help us map the extent of existing damage before recommending repairs.
We set up recurring inspection schedules for Sanford commercial buildings with reports for property records.

Tell dispatch whether it's a swarm sighting or existing damage; swarm calls get expedited scheduling.
A technician arrives with moisture meters and inspection tools ready to check the foundation, crawl space, and framing.
We trace mud tubes, check for wood-to-soil contact, and identify subterranean versus drywood species before quoting.
Treatment is applied the same visit when possible, with monitoring visits scheduled to confirm the colony is gone.
The WDO report they provided was exactly what our lender needed for closing — saved us from a delay.
Swarmers showed up near our bedroom window one evening and I panicked. The inspection found a subterranean colony and the liquid barrier was done the same week.
As a property manager, having a bonded termite plan on file made our annual insurance review painless.
Bait stations were installed along our property line and the quarterly monitoring checks have been reassuring ever since.

Nex Pest Control dispatches termite-certified technicians throughout Sanford and nearby communities for both inspections and treatment. We cover single-family homes, multi-unit buildings, and commercial properties across Sanford with the same inspection standard and documentation.

Termite wings are equal in length and shed easily near a single point, while ant wings are uneven in size — a technician can confirm on site.
Knowing which species you have changes both the treatment method and the price, which is why inspection comes first.
Most lenders require a wood-destroying organism report as part of closing, and we provide one with full documentation.
Longevity depends on the product used and soil conditions, which we'll explain based on what's applied to your property.
Most subterranean treatments are done outside the structure, so interior disruption is minimal.
If monitoring shows continued activity, we return and address it at no additional charge under your plan.
