Subterranean termites cause more property damage in New Jersey than fires, floods, and storms combined. They live in underground colonies containing hundreds of thousands of workers and enter homes through foundation cracks, expansion joints, and where wood contacts soil. In Clark, termite season peaks from March through June when swarmers emerge — but workers feed on your home's wood year-round, 24 hours a day. Sousa Exterminating Co. provides professional termite treatments and certified WDI inspections for home sales.
Call 908-352-7959 — Free QuoteWe offer two proven treatment methods. Liquid barrier treatment: We trench and inject termiticide around your foundation, creating a continuous chemical barrier that kills termites on contact and transfers through the colony. Bait station systems: Monitoring stations installed around the perimeter detect termite activity early and deliver slow-acting bait that workers carry back to the queen. Both methods come with warranties.
Buying or selling a home? Most NJ lenders require a Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) inspection before closing. Our licensed inspectors examine the property for evidence of termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and wood-boring beetles. Reports are completed within 24-48 hours and meet FHA, VA, and conventional loan requirements. If treatment is needed, we can treat and issue a clearance letter to keep your closing on schedule.
Mud tubes on foundation walls, piers, or floor joists — these pencil-thin tubes are highways termites build to travel between soil and wood. Soft or hollow-sounding wood in floors, walls, or trim. Blistering or buckling in wood flooring. Swarmers (winged termites) emerging indoors in spring — a swarm inside your home means a colony is living in or under your structure. Discarded wings near windows or light fixtures after a swarm.
WDI inspections start at $175. Liquid barrier termite treatments start at $500 depending on home size and foundation type. Bait monitoring systems start at $350/year. All treatments include a warranty.
