Frequently Asked Questions 1.Q. How often should I have my home inspected for termites? A. Termites are everywhere, and without continuous monitoring it is impossible to know when termites will find your home or office. The simple answer is "as often as possible".

6. Q. Which should I use, Liquid or Bait? A. Maybe the most common question. There are several factors in choosing bait vs. liquid. In some cases there are physical attributes of a property and/or house that would prohibit the use of liquid. Bait stations can take longer to take affect. Liquid provides a solid barrier. Baits provide monitoring, liquids do not. There are too many factors to mention here, but a professional from COMMAND can evaluate the premises and discuss all the options with you in more detail.
7. Q. I live in a brick house, why should I be concerned? A. The brick is only a veneer. It's the outer layer protecting the wood on the other side from rain and other weather conditions. The brick does not provide any protection from termites. In-fact the space between the brick veneer and wood is very attractive to termites. The brick acts as a protective layer so termites can eat the wood undetected for years.
