Understanding Your Termite Infestation Risk
Pest control companies, agricultural agencies and academic experts contribute termite data to help property owners nationwide identify their level of termite infestation risk. Many property owners are unaware that Tulsa, Oklahoma is categorized as moderate-to-heavy subterranean termite activity, according to the Termite Infestation Probability Map created by the International Residential Code, which means the potential for termite damage is considered significant.
Why Are Termites a Concern?
Termites damage about 600,000 homes in the U.S. annually
In the U.S., termites and similar pests cause about $30 billion in damage each year
Property owners spend an average of $3,000 repairing termite damage

Our Residential Pest-Control Process
Evaluate
Sure Shot’s home pest-control services include a thorough, on-site evaluation. We look for key areas of activity, trailing insects, entrance points, harborage spots, and property damage. These findings give us the insights we need to put together a custom treatment plan that will solve your pest problem quickly and effectively.
Execute
Our certified, pest-control technicians utilize only the most effective pest-control products, taking special care to ensure they won’t adversely affect or disrupt your family or your pets. Your safety and comfort is our primary concern.
Monitor
Once treatment is complete, we will show you pest entrance and harborage spots so you can help reduce future insect activity. Your vigilant and consistent monitoring helps reduce the chance for a large infestation and saves you from further extermination costs.
Swarming
Once a colony has reached a certain size, they will swarm. However, since this growth process can take longer than 5 years and during this time they could do considerable damage to your home or property, we recommend also looking for some of the other common signs of infestation.
Termite Wings
Termite wings resemble tiny fish scales and can be found shredded near an entry point to your building.
Termite Droppings
Termite droppings look like small, ridged, wood-colored pellets.
Mud Tubes
Look for mud tubes on exterior surfaces (see two mud tube pictures above)
Live Termites
Live termites in and around your property (see first termite picture above)
Termite Damage
Termite damage in and around your property (see termite damage picture above)
Exit Holes
Pin to nail-sized holes found in sheetrock, trim boards, and other building materials
Termite Inspection: What to Expect
A fully licensed, by the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, technician will arrive at your home or property.
We visually inspect the interior and exterior of your property, including any accessible crawl spaces. We look for any signs of termite activity, (see above termite warning signs list). We also look for conditions conducive to termites, including wood to ground contact, remaining form boards, and wood debris in the crawl space or around the structure.
Inspections typically last 30 minutes or longer.
Upon completion of a complimentary termite estimate, we will review findings with you and recommend treatment.
Upon completion of an official termite inspection (esp. for a real estate transaction) we will provide a detailed termite inspection report. This will include treatment recommendations if applicable.
