Discarded wings near a window in spring is a termite swarm, not flying ants, and it means a mature colony is already established somewhere in the structure. A colony can feed on structural wood for years before any visible sign appears on the surface, which is why routine inspection matters even without an active swarm.
We check the sill plate, foundation cracks, and crawl space for mud tubes and wood-to-soil contact before recommending treatment.


Every technician performing West Lafayette termite inspections carries state licensing for wood-destroying organism reporting.
We keep inspection slots open same-week for West Lafayette homeowners seeing mud tubes or wings near windows.
Liquid barrier and bait station pricing is quoted after inspection, tied to linear footage and species found.
Our inspection kit includes bore-scopes for checking wall voids without cutting into drywall unnecessarily.
Subterranean colonies travel through soil, so barrier treatment is mapped around the entire structure's perimeter.
Stations use a slow-acting bait that colony members share, which can eliminate the nest rather than just the visible tubes.
We identify drywood frass (small pellet droppings) to pinpoint exactly which framing member needs treatment.
We provide a full written wood-destroying organism report accepted by most lenders as part of closing documents.
We document damage severity so you or your contractor know which framing needs structural attention.
Commercial properties get scheduled monitoring and renewal treatment under a documented termite protection plan.

Call +1-844-564-2570 and describe what you've seen — mud tubes, wings, or soft wood — so we can prioritize the inspection.
Our mobile units carry both liquid termiticide and bait station equipment for West Lafayette termite calls.
We trace mud tubes, check for wood-to-soil contact, and identify subterranean versus drywood species before quoting.
Treatment is applied the same visit when possible, with monitoring visits scheduled to confirm the colony is gone.
Found mud tubes on the foundation during a routine check and Nex Pest Control had an inspector out within two days with a full written report.
Swarmers showed up near our bedroom window one evening and I panicked. The inspection found a subterranean colony and the liquid barrier was done the same week.
As a property manager, having a bonded termite plan on file made our annual insurance review painless.
We were about to list our house when the pre-listing inspection caught early subterranean activity — glad it was found before a buyer's inspector did.

No matter which West Lafayette neighborhood you're in, a technician equipped for termite-specific work can reach you within days, often sooner. We cover single-family homes, multi-unit buildings, and commercial properties across West Lafayette with the same inspection standard and documentation.

Termite swarmers have straight antennae and a thick waist, unlike the bent antennae and pinched waist of flying ants.
Treatment differs by species — subterranean gets a soil barrier or bait stations, drywood often gets localized wood treatment.
Most lenders require a wood-destroying organism report as part of closing, and we provide one with full documentation.
Barrier treatments typically hold for several years, with monitoring visits confirming the barrier is still effective.
Exterior barrier treatment usually doesn't require leaving the home, but we'll tell you specifically if your treatment plan does.
If monitoring shows continued activity, we return and address it at no additional charge under your plan.
