After successful slashing my annual pest control costs from $300 to $16 by switching to DIY route, I'm thinking about doing the same for termite protection.
We are in Atlanta suburbs and have a stick house with concrete basement built in 1999. Termites sighted in the neighborhood (quite normal in Georgia)
Termite company is doing liquid treatment around perimeter of the house every 5 years and annual inspections. The cost of treatment is about $700, inspection is $150-$200.
On the top of it you get 10k bond protection against termite damage.
For DIY route I can buy Termidor online for about $50 and probable raise effectiveness of the defenses by adding Termite Detection and Killing Stakes ( ~$60)
I'll check with my home insurance company about the coverage of termite damage.
What do you guys and gals think?
