Protecting Your Home from the Ground Up
Termite control is one of the most consequential investments a homeowner can make, particularly in older wood-frame homes surrounded by mature trees, where subterranean termite pressure is a real and ongoing concern. Witt uses the Sentricon® System with Always Active Technology to eliminate entire colonies at the source, including the queen, without invasive trenching or termiticides that can affect groundwater.
Here is how the process works:
- A thorough inspection confirms termite activity and assesses the extent of any infestation on your property.
- Sentricon® bait stations are strategically placed around the perimeter where foraging termites are most likely to encounter them.
- Worker termites carry the bait back to the colony, spreading it throughout before the colony collapses entirely.
- Stations remain in place as a continuous monitoring and prevention system, providing ongoing protection with no reinvasion gaps.

Termite Risk in Upper St. Clair by Season
The first warm day after rain triggers winged termites to swarm and start new colonies.
Colonies stay highly active underground, foraging continuously in warm, humid soil.
Right now, activity is slowing on the surface, but colonies keep foraging below ground as they prepare for winter. Mature colonies at this stage can already be years old.
Termites stay active underground below the frost line, and heated structures can still see swarms.
