Types of Termites Common in Birmingham, AL
Termites like to move in groups, or colonies. To effectively eradicate them, it is recommended to treat your entire property and remove every pest in its colony. In Birmingham, these termite types are the most common colonies you may come across.
Subterranean termites are responsible for a large percentage of termite damage in Birmingham. As a result, you are most likely to encounter these species of termites. Subterranean termites live in soil, build gigantic nests, and search for food sources like trees, fence posts, and structural timber via mud tubes. They are highly destructive and, if left unchecked, can cause a substantial amount of damage to your home. If you think you may have a subterranean termite infestation, Waynes can help.
Formosan termites have wings, and their colonies can occupy up to 300 feet. These winged pests are often referred to as "super termites" because their colonies expand fast and they consume wood at an alarming rate. Don't let Formosan termites take over your Birmingham home. Termites can be challenging to remove without the help of a professional pest control company, like Waynes. All of our professionals are thoroughly trained through Waynes University to handle a variety of termite infestations—even yours.
You can minimize the risk of termite infestation with a pretreatment applied during construction. Most building codes and lending agencies require this process to be done for newly built homes by a licensed pest professional, like Waynes Pest Control.
Waynes provides termite warranties through the Sentricon® System and its AlwaysActive™ technology, which protects your home from costly damage.
When buying a house, if the previous homeowners had a termite bond or warranty, you might be able to have a similar one issued in your name.
If your home lacks termite protection, you should consider calling Waynes Pest Control at 205-985-7009 to have an inspection performed immediately.

Birmingham Termite Control FAQs
If you’re wondering what the best pest control for a termite infestation would be, there are a few factors that must be considered. When it comes to finding termite killers in Birmingham, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The termite type will contribute to which solution could be best for your termite problem. In addition, the location of the infestation could also be a significant factor that may be considered when identifying a treatment plan.
Below are a few common termite control solutions we have available:
- Sentricon/Bait system treatments. The Sentricon system uses baiting systems that act as “housing stations” for termites who may be lingering nearby. It will require a Waynes Service Professional to first install devices around your home. Once interacted with, these green cylinders can become deadly for termites—all it takes is for a worker termite to set foot into the bait and bring it back to the colony. Sentricon is one of the most effective approaches to keeping termites at bay. Not only can it eradicate an entire colony, but it can also help keep your property termite free for years to come.
- Pretreatments. Pretreating wood for termites, also known as retreats, consists of applying termiticides to treat wood in the prevention of future termite infestations. This method is best for keeping termites away from a newly constructed home.
Due to its warm weather and humidity, termites are drawn to towns such as Birmingham, AL, and other environments like it. In fact, Alabama is known for having some of the worst damage done annually in the U.S., as a result of termite infestations. If you live in the Yellowhammer State, termite protection isn’t only worthy, but it’s also a requirement.
- Baiting systems/Sentricon systems. At Waynes Pest Control, our professionals rely on Constant Protection™, an advanced method featuring the Sentricon System with AlwaysActive technology. This approach uses baiting systems that can ensure the treatment has been thoroughly distributed throughout the termite colony, eradicating the queen of the colony and its minions. This approach can be one of the most effective at eradicating termite infestations. The true purpose of baiting systems is to trap a worker termite in its path, resulting in the treatment traveling to the colony and wiping it out entirely.
- Retreats. Retreats, or wood treatments, are recommended for use in new homes. This method pretreats wood with pest control solutions that protect the wood and keep termites at bay. This is the best way to protect your new investment and keep your family safe from the devastating dangers of termite infestations.
When it comes to combating termite problems, it may require one or more treatments to obliterate the infestation. At Waynes Pest Control, we’ll have a Waynes Service Professional inspect your property and identify the best termite control solution, which may include:
1. Sentricon Treatment. Sentricon treatments are the most effective when handling Subterranean termite infestations. This method is designed to carry the treatment back to the colony and eliminates termite communities.
2. Spot Treatment. For localized infestations, applying a spot treatment is common. This procedure will require a Waynes Service Professional to apply our environmentally-friendly pesticide to areas of your home where pests may commonly be hiding, such as in and around your ducts, along your walls, bases, and dimly lit areas underneath your furniture. Spot treatment can be effective for eliminating ants, beetles, bees, termites, and more.
