Termite Tree Treatment
Termite Tree Treatment and Extermination
If you have a tree on your property that is infested with termites, it is important to get it treated as soon as possible. Termites can seriously damage a tree, and if they are not removed, they can spread to other places on your property.
Central Coast Pest Exterminators provides termite tree treatments to eliminate the termites and protect your tree from future infestations. We use only the highest quality products, and our technicians are experienced in treating termite-infested trees.
Termites Damage Trees
Termites are small insects that feed on wood. While they are essential for breaking down dead trees and other organic matter, they can also be very destructive.
The insects eat away at the wood, weakening the tree and making it more susceptible to wind and storm damage. In addition, termites can introduce harmful fungi and bacteria into the tree, leading to rot and decay. As a result, trees infested with termites are a serious safety hazard.
Infested trees can fall onto a house or even a person. Additionally, once the termites have moved into the area, they can spread to your home and neighbours.
Symptoms Your Tree Has Termites
There are several signs that a tree may be infested with termites. Some of the signs you may have a termite problem include :
- Swarming termites (usually near tree stumps or tree roots).
- Mud tubes on the trunks, tree stumps, and tree roots. This is how they travel between the soil where they live and the food source.
- Wood shavings or sheer wings around the bottom of a tree.
- Holes or dark spots on the tree.
Finding the Best Termite Tree Treatment
At Central Coast Pest Exterminators, we provide treatments for tree termites to stop these pests from damaging your trees or spreading. Our treatment options include injecting a safe and effective insecticide into the tree or around the soil. This treatment exterminates the entire colony living within the tree and deters any nearby termites from moving in.
All of the treatments and termiticides used at Central Coast Pest Exterminators are effective at exterminating termites but do not harm the environment.
We also offer a baiting system, which is a long-term solution that monitors and eliminates termite populations over time.

Prevent Termites in Trees
Termites are a serious problem for trees. These insects can cause extensive damage to the bark and wood of a tree, leading to its eventual death. While there are many ways to control and prevent termites, the most effective method is to address the problem before it starts. Here are four tips to help prevent termites in trees:
- Inspect trees regularly for signs of termite activity, such as tunnels in the bark or sawdust near the base of the trunk.
- Keep the area around trees free of debris and decaying wood. Tree stumps and fallen leaves are prime breeding grounds for termites.
- Ensure the wood is not too moist.
- If you have an infestation of termites, contact Central Coast Pest Exterminators for assistance in eradicating them.
By taking these steps, you can help ensure that your trees are safe from these damaging insects.
