At Massey Services, we offer comprehensive termite control in Athens backed by decades of experience and a No-Nonsense Money-Back Guarantee. Whether you’re facing an active infestation or want to prevent one, our licensed termite experts provide effective, long-term solutions tailored to your home.

Why Termites Are a Serious Threat in Athens

Termites feed on wood and cellulose 24/7. They don’t sleep, and they don’t stop—and unfortunately, Athens’s warm, humid climate creates the perfect breeding ground for multiple termite species:

• Subterranean – These termites live in underground colonies and enter homes through mud tubes built along foundation walls. They are responsible for the vast majority of structural termite damage in the U.S.
• Drywood – These pests live entirely inside the wood they consume—often entering through attic vents, rooflines or exposed wood trim. They don’t need contact with soil or much moisture to survive.
• Formosan – The most aggressive and destructive species. These termites form massive colonies—up to 10 million strong—and can build nests above ground inside walls. Formosan termites are known to cause significant damage in a short time.

Massey Services’ termite experts are trained to recognize and treat each species appropriately, providing solutions based on the termite type, infestation level, and risk to your structure.

What to Expect from Your Termite Inspection

Every termite service starts with a free, detailed property inspection performed by a trained Massey termite professional. During this inspection, we examine:

• Interior walls, baseboards, flooring and trim
• Exterior foundations, patios and crawlspaces
• Attics, garages and sheds
• Evidence of swarmers (flying termites), wings, mud tubes or wood damage
• Conditions conducive to infestation—such as moisture, mulch buildup or wood-to-soil contact

We also determine which termite species is present or at risk of invading your home. Once the pest control inspection complete, we’ll walk you through our findings and provide a clear, customized treatment recommendation.

Massey Services’ Termite Treatment Options

Depending on your inspection results, Massey will recommend one of two proven treatment methods:

• Liquid Soil – A long-lasting termiticide is applied to the soil around your home’s foundation, creating a protective barrier that prevents subterranean termites from gaining entry.
• Termite Baiting System with Monitoring – Bait stations are installed around your home to eliminate entire termite colonies over time. These stations are monitored every year for ongoing protection.

Both treatment options are backed by our Total Coverage Termite Guarantee, offering you complete peace of mind.

For drywood termite infestations, Massey may recommend structural fumigation or localized wood treatments, depending on the severity and accessibility of the infestation.

Year-Round Termite Prevention and Monitoring

Protecting your home from termites isn’t a one-time event—it’s a continuous process. Massey’s termite services include:

• Annual re-inspections to assess activity and treatment integrity
• Moisture control and ventilation recommendations
• Guidance on reducing risk factors (e.g., firewood storage, overgrown landscaping, foundation gaps)
• Annual bait station checks (if applicable)
