Protect Your Home From Silent Destroyers
Termites are one of the most destructive pests in Florida. They work quietly behind walls, under slabs, and in attics—often for years—before homeowners notice a problem. Gato Lawn & Pest Control offers comprehensive termite control for Orlando and Central Florida homes, including inspections, pretreatments, soil and bait system treatments, localized treatments, and coordination for fumigation in severe cases.
Our goal is to detect activity early, eliminate active colonies, and provide long-term protection so your largest investment stays structurally sound and protected.

Types of Termites in Central Florida
Central Florida homes may be threatened by:
- Subterranean termites – Live in the soil and travel through mud tubes to feed on structural wood.
- Drywood termites – Nest directly in dry wood such as framing, trim, and furniture and can cause damage in isolated pockets.
Each type requires a different treatment approach, and Gato technicians are trained to identify which species is present and how far the infestation has spread.
Signs You Might Have Termites
Look for:
- Mud tubes on foundation walls, piers, or other surfaces
- Winged swarmers around windows, doors, or lights
- Discarded wings on window sills and floors
- Blistering or bubbling paint that reveals damaged wood beneath
- Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
- Small piles of frass (termite droppings) near baseboards or window frames
If you suspect termites, a professional inspection from Gato Lawn & Pest Control is the best next step.
Our Termite Treatment Options
1. Comprehensive Inspection
We inspect the interior, exterior, attic, and accessible structural areas to determine termite type, active areas, and risk factors.
2. Soil Treatments & Liquid Barriers
For subterranean termites, we can apply termiticide treatments into the soil around the foundation to create a protective, treated zone that termites encounter as they travel to and from the structure.
3. Bait Systems
We can install termite baiting systems around the property. Termites feed on the bait and carry it back to the colony, gradually eliminating the population.
4. Localized Interior & Exterior Treatments
When activity is confined to specific areas, we use localized treatments to target termites directly in infested wood or accessible galleries.
5. Fumigation Coordination for Severe Drywood Termites
For advanced drywood termite infestations, whole-structure fumigation may be recommended. Gato helps coordinate this process and can provide follow-up protection afterward.
Termite Pretreatments & Preventive Protection
If you’re building or remodeling, Gato Lawn & Pest Control offers termite pretreatments for new construction and additions. Treating before construction is completed helps protect the structure from the beginning. For existing homes, we recommend annual inspections and, if needed, periodic retreatments to keep termite protection active.

Termite Control – FAQs
What types of termites does Gato Lawn & Pest Control treat in Central Florida?
Gato Lawn & Pest Control treats both subterranean termites and drywood termites in Orlando and Central Florida. We customize treatment plans based on the termite species, level of activity, and construction of your home.
How does Gato protect my home from subterranean termites?
For subterranean termites, Gato Lawn & Pest Control typically uses soil treatments and/or baiting systems around your home’s foundation. These methods create treated zones that termites encounter as they move between the soil and structure, helping to eliminate active colonies and prevent new infestations.
Do I need to leave my home during a termite treatment from Gato?
Most localized termite treatments performed by Gato Lawn & Pest Control do not require you to leave your home for extended periods, although certain areas may be restricted temporarily. If whole-structure fumigation is needed for severe drywood termite problems, we’ll explain that separate process, timeline, and re-entry requirements.
How long do Gato’s termite treatments last?
The longevity of termite protection depends on the treatment method, soil conditions, and your home’s construction. Gato Lawn & Pest Control offers long-term soil treatments, baiting systems, and regular inspection programs to help maintain protection over time.
Can Gato treat termites in both new construction and existing homes?
Yes. Gato Lawn & Pest Control provides termite pretreatments for new construction and additions, as well as full termite treatment plans for existing homes in Orlando and Central Florida. Treating at multiple stages offers the strongest long-term protection.
How often should my home be inspected for termites by Gato?
In Florida, most experts recommend an annual termite inspection. Gato Lawn & Pest Control can schedule yearly inspections as part of your overall pest protection plan so any early signs of termites are addressed before significant damage occurs.
