Termites can cause severe structural damage to your property, often leading to costly repairs if left untreated. At Pinnacle Pest Control, our experienced technicians specialize in identifying and eliminating termite infestations to minimize damage. We begin with a thorough inspection of your entire property, inside and out, to detect even the earliest signs of termite activity. Using powerful, eco-friendly treatments, we target termites at the source to ensure your Sacramento home or business is protected. No termite stands a chance against our proven solutions.
Treatments are applied to the foundation of your home or building, creating an invisible barrier against termites. Anytime termites pass through this zone, they carry and spread the treatment to the rest of the termite colony.
The active ingredient in orange oil dissolves the exoskeleton of the termite. This treatment can solve small infestations on its own or work with other treatments to manage larger infestations.
Your home is an investment that should last a lifetime. However, over time, damage from termites can make your home unsafe and unlivable. Pinnacle Pest Control has a team of licensed general contractors that will repair your home to its former glory.
Catching a termite infestation early can help minimize damage to your home or business. Be on the lookout for signs of termites, including:
If you see one of these signs, contact our local exterminators for a termite inspection service.
Termites can cause serious structural damage to your property, sometimes costing thousands of dollars in repairs. Discovering damage at your home is an unsettling experience, but the trusted pest control professionals at Pinnacle can help.
Drywood termites. These termites build their nests in dry above-ground wood sources. The best termite treatment solution is to drill the infested wood and inject orange oil (a type of termite bait) into the feeding area, which kills termites on contact
Subterranean termites. A common type of termite in every state except Alaska, these cause more damage than any other termite species. They live underground in the soil and build mud tubes to reach your property's wooden structure. They're best treated with liquid termiticide surrounding the perimeter of your property and any potential entry point to deter termites from seeking food sources on your property.
Orange oil treatment is a highly effective, localized method for eliminating drywood termite infestations without the need for tenting. Our trained technicians begin by pinpointing the exact location of termite activity within the wood.
Once the infestation is located, we drill very small, discreet holes into the wood to access the hidden termite galleries. A high-concentration orange oil solution is then injected directly into these galleries, killing termites on contact. The oil wicks through the wood, spreading to eliminate the colony at its source. This targeted "spot treatment" approach is a convenient and powerful way to protect your home.
We inject orange oil into the infested wall area using a minimally invasive method designed to maintain the integrity of your home and prevent the need to disrupt your life. As the oil spreads through the wood beams, the termites are killed and the treated area is neutralized from reinfestation.
Orange oil is only toxic to the termites. When the treatment comes in contact with a termite, it destroys the wax coating of the termite's respiratory system, and causes suffocation. Bye Bye Termites.
Other termite treatments force you to pack your bags and move out of your home. With orange oil, you can get rid of termites with the same guaranteed results as fumigation, while still staying in the comfort of your home.
Orange Oil is proven effective, and our certified Orange Oil specialists can offer you a warranty that is equal to any other treatment option.

Most properties in Sacramento and the rest of California use wood as their main construction material. The state’s abundance of trees allows for wood to remain a strong but inexpensive construction material that's much easier to construct with. Thanks to state laws, taxes on wooden properties are lower than their concrete, steel, metal counterparts.
Unfortunately for property owners, this means plenty of residential and commercial properties in Sacramento, and the East Bay Areas of California are vulnerable to termites. If left untreated, termites can build a colony that can eat the exterior or interior of your property, compromise the structure of the building, and cause costly damage that can risk the safety of those inside the property. That's why it's important to keep your property termite-free.
If your residential or commercial property shows signs of an active termite infestation, contact Pinnacle Pest Control as soon as possible. Rather than waiting and letting the infestation cause irreparable damage to your home or business, you’ll have a team of professionally-trained pest control specialists that can eliminate all termites.
On top of this, you can receive extra steps and recommendations on termite prevention to reduce the risk of recurring termite infestations. With our integrated pest management solutions, we can get rid of the present infestation while also helping you take steps to prevent the risks of a future infestation.
Unlike most pests that carry diseases, termites are more concerning because of what they can do to your property. Every year, termites of various species cause billions of dollars in structural damage in the United States.
In fact, property owners spend over five billion dollars in the last few years to fix property damage caused by termite infestations – which means spending at least $3,000 just for the repairs alone.
Termites are capable of causing major destruction to your property because of their natural practices. If your property has everything they need to survive – food (wood), water (moisture in the wood and a high humidity interior), and a dark space for them to inhabit – they can find some common entry points and settle their colony in your property.
They survive by feeding on cellulose, an organic compound found most commonly in wood, though they may also feed on plants, cotton fibers, and paper items around your property as they also contain cellulose.
Termites have mandibles and teeth to gnaw through wooden beams and drywall. If your property has a wooden frame covered by concrete, termites can find a weak spot in concrete and chip through it until it has access to your property's wooden structure.
The worst part? Termites are silent pests that can spend years hiding in your walls without you knowing it. Most property owners don't realize they have a termite infestation until their property begins to show signs of decay because of termites chipping at the wooden structure.
At Pinnacle Pest Control, our team of pest management specialists know how to perform a thorough termite inspection, identify the type of termite, and deal with it accordingly. Our eco-friendly pest control methods ensure we eliminate all termites on your property and prevent any further property damage. We know the best ways to treat different types of termites, including the following common termites: drywood and subterranean termites.
Termite infestations cause millions of dollars in property damage each year, silently compromising the structural integrity of homes. The sooner you detect and address an infestation, the better your chances of minimizing costly repairs. Delays in termite extermination can result in damage totaling hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
For homeowners, this isn't just about expense, it's about safety. Living in a termite-damaged home can pose serious structural risks. And if you're planning to rent, lease, or sell your property, you're legally required to disclose any termite activity or damage, which can significantly lower your property's value.
Don't let termites undermine your investment. Instead, call Pinnacle Pest Control. Our local exterminators specialize in eliminating termite infestations, preventing them from coming back, and repairing the damage they leave behind.

A: Unlike other pests that feed on humans and food scraps, termites are exclusively interested in your wooden structure and can be difficult to draw out and eliminate with DIY methods. Some DIY pest control products designed for termites can kill some termites and prevent them from attacking a part of your property, but that won’t stop them from reproducing or attacking another part of your property. The best way to handle a termite infestation is by getting rid of the colony entirely, and that requires professional pest control skills.

Termites are silent pests and, apart from other items like paper products, plants, and organic fibers, you won't really see them feeding off humans and other animals or finding their way into your pantry. Some signs to look out for include:
