Termite Control in Las Vegas
Protect Your Home from the Silent Destroyers 🏚️🪲
Termites may not bite, sting, or crawl across your kitchen counter—but what they do behind your walls could cost you thousands in damage. Every year, termites are responsible for billions of dollars in structural destruction across the U.S.—and yes, even in dry desert climates like Las Vegas, they’re still a real threat.
At Scorpion Slayer Pest Control, we know exactly what to look for and how to stop termites in their tracks—before or after they strike.
Are Termites a Problem in Las Vegas?
Yes. Las Vegas is home to drywood and subterranean termites, two species fully capable of causing extensive property damage.
Despite the desert conditions, termites thrive here due to:
🌵 Irrigated landscaping (lawns, trees, garden beds)
🚰 Moisture buildup from plumbing leaks or AC runoff
🏚️ Wood structures and older homes with untreated framing
🏘️ Construction booms that disturb soil and bring termites closer to homes
Even without tropical humidity, termites in Las Vegas remain active year-round, especially in areas with moisture and food sources.
Termites in Las Vegas: What You Need to Know
🐜 Subterranean Termites
The most destructive species in the U.S., subterranean termites live underground and build mud tubes to reach wood above the soil. They can:
- Cause serious structural damage undetected for years
- Enter through cracks in slabs, foundation gaps, or plumbing entry points
- Thrive near irrigated landscapes, leaky pipes, and basements
Signs include:
- Mud tubes along walls or foundations
- Swarmers (winged termites) around doors or windows
- Wood that sounds hollow or flakes easily
🐜 Drywood Termites
Unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites don’t need soil. They infest dry, undecayed wood—often in attic beams, furniture, and door frames.
Drywood termite signs:
- Tiny, pellet-shaped droppings (frass) near wood surfaces
- Discarded wings from swarmers inside the home
- Bubbling or blistered paint from hidden tunnels beneath the surface
Why DIY Treatments Don’t Work
Termites nest deep within walls, foundations, or roof beams, where surface sprays can’t reach. Over-the-counter treatments only kill visible swarmers, leaving the colony active and growing out of sight.
By the time most homeowners see damage, termites may have been feeding for months—or even years.
