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.
We check the sill plate, foundation cracks, and crawl space for mud tubes and wood-to-soil contact before recommending treatment.


Every technician performing Portland termite inspections carries state licensing for wood-destroying organism reporting.
We keep inspection slots open same-week for Portland homeowners seeing mud tubes or wings near windows.
You'll see one written quote before any termiticide is applied — no per-visit billing surprises.
Our inspection kit includes bore-scopes for checking wall voids without cutting into drywall unnecessarily.
Subterranean colonies travel through soil, so barrier treatment is mapped around the entire structure's perimeter.
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 Portland commercial buildings with reports for property records.
