Termite control in Atlantis, FL: quick facts

Termites under the Atlantis tree canopy

Many Atlantis homes were built in the 1970s and 1980s, with wood trusses, fascia, door frames and interior trim that drywood termites can colonize. Swarmers come out on warm, humid evenings and show up on windowsills and light fixtures. Fine pellets under a door frame or baseboard are another common clue.

Subterranean termites need moisture, and irrigated beds against the foundation, downspouts emptying at the slab and mulch piled up on the wall all help them. Large shade trees and lake edges keep that soil damp for long stretches.

What Atlantis homeowners usually notice first

In Atlantis, termite calls often start with something small: a few wings by a sliding door after a warm evening, a door that suddenly sticks, or dark specks along a baseboard near the garage. Those are clues worth checking, not proof of a problem. Leave the evidence where it is or take a clear photo, and mention the room when you book. If you have had the home inspected before, the date and the findings from that visit help us compare what has changed.

Inspection and treatment

The complimentary inspection covers the exterior soil line, doors, windows, fascia, the garage and the attic when it is safe to enter. We tell you what we found and which method fits. Tent fumigation is one option when drywood activity is widespread. Subterranean termites are handled at the soil.

Shared-roof villas and condos usually need the association involved before any structural treatment, so tell us the building type when you book.

Termite Control in Atlantis FAQ

Can drywood termites be in an older Atlantis home’s trusses?

Yes. Drywood termites live inside dry wood without soil contact, including trusses, fascia and trim. An attic check is part of the inspection when it is safe.

Do villas with shared roofs need association approval?

Usually yes. A treatment that affects the whole structure typically needs the association or every owner on board. We can inspect your unit and give you a recommendation to share.

What should I save if I see swarmers?

Collect a few wings or insects in a bag, or take a clear photo, and mention it when you book.

Do you write termite reports for real-estate closings?

No. We provide a pest-control inspection and a treatment recommendation, not reports for closings.

We discovered a beehive in our backyard. We were referred to this company we called. They responded and came out immediately and remediated the issue. Would recommend them to anyone they are reasonable. They are attentive to their customers and responsive and also reasonable with price.

I had a great experience with Q&L! I was having issues with spiders at my home, I called Q&L and they were there the next day. They’re very knowledgeable and did a very thorough inspection of the house to make sure they were getting to the root of the problem. I will continue to use them and would recommend them to anyone!

John was super professional and on-time, which is hard to come by for pest management services. We were worried our house was going to fall over based on a previous inspection, but after speaking with John during his initial consultation he assured us he could handle the task at hand. He was incredibly professional and focused on the entomology instead of being overly sales-pitchy. Highly recommend!

I have used Q and L for over a year now. They provide quality service with little to no hassle. They show up on time and have made a few “emergency” trips day of it next day when we have had issues beyond our normal monthly maintenance service. I cannot recommend them enough.
