Finding signs of termites can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. At Harbor Pest Control, our experienced team offers proven termite treatments designed to eliminate active infestations and protect your structure from future termite damage. We’re here to help you protect what matters most.
At Harbor Pest Control, we specialize in liquid termite treatments using Termidor® HP—the gold standard for eliminating subterranean termite colonies. This advanced treatment creates a continuous, undetectable barrier around your home, so termites come into contact with it without even knowing. Once exposed, they carry it back to the colony, spreading it throughout until the entire population is wiped out. It’s a fast, effective way to stop termites at the source and protect your San Diego home for the long haul.
Harbor Pest Control offers a range of effective treatments for drywood termites, including whole-home fumigation, localized spot treatments, and preventative Borate applications. For active infestations, fumigation is often the most reliable way to eliminate termites throughout the structure. In cases where the activity is limited and accessible, we may recommend a less invasive spot treatment. For homeowners looking to prevent future infestations, our Borate treatment helps protect exposed wood by making it unappetizing to termites. Whatever your situation, we’ll help you choose the right solution to keep your home protected.
Our region is home to both subterranean and drywood termites, and telling them apart isn’t always easy. That’s where Harbor Pest Control comes in. Our team provides thorough termite inspections to identify the type of infestation, assess any damage, and recommend the best treatment plan for your home. Whether you’re seeing signs of activity or just want peace of mind, we’re here to help you protect your property from costly termite damage.
At Harbor Pest Control, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all termite control. Whether you’re facing subterranean termites or drywood termites, we’ll recommend the right treatment based on the type of infestation and the structure of your home. We use Termidor® HP for powerful, long-lasting protection against subterranean termites, and offer drywood termite solutions that include whole-home fumigation, localized treatments, and preventative Borate applications. Our goal is simple: eliminate termites and keep them from coming back.
Depending on the type of termite and treatment used, qualifying property owners may be eligible for a termite re-treatment warranty. Coverage details and requirements vary between subterranean and drywood termite services, but our team will walk you through everything so you know exactly what to expect. Ask us about warranty options during your inspection—we’ll explain what’s available for your structure.
Signs include hollow-sounding wood, visible mud tubes along foundations or walls, discarded wings near windows or doors, and small piles of termite droppings (frass). Damaged wood may appear blistered or cracked.
Termite control cost in San Diego varies based on the termite species (drywood vs. subterranean), the size and location of the infestation, and which treatment method is best for your home. Harbor Pest Control offers several proven options, including liquid termite treatments, localized treatments, borate treatments (a preventative for drywood termites), and full-home fumigation when needed. The fastest way to get an accurate quote is to schedule a termite inspection with our local San Diego team.
No—fumigation (tenting) isn’t always necessary for termites. The right treatment depends on the termite species, where the infestation is located, and how widespread it is. For many situations, localized treatments or other methods can be effective. However, fumigation is sometimes recommended for drywood termites, especially when activity is spread through multiple areas of the home or can’t be fully accessed for spot treatment. A professional termite inspection is the best way to confirm the type of termite and recommend the most effective, least disruptive treatment for your San Diego property.
Scheduling depends on our current availability, but we often have next-day appointments available. If you’re seeing signs of termites or you’re up against a real estate deadline, let us know when you reach out, and we’ll do our best to get your inspection scheduled as soon as possible and walk you through the next steps.
Have an annual contract with Harbor for termites which is very superior. Called this year for rodent treatment which even after the first month had truly amazing results. Have been with Harbor Pest Control for over 30 years and they have earned our 5 star rating throughout this period.
