Termite Extermination in Murfreesboro & Rutherford CountyStop Termites Before They Destroy Your Home or Business

Termites are silent destroyers, capable of causing thousands of dollars in structural damage before they’re even detected.

Using advanced tools and proven treatments, we identify termite activity early and eliminate it at the source—protecting your biggest investment.

Common Termite Species in Tennessee

  • Eastern Subterranean Termites – The most common and destructive species in Tennessee. They build mud tubes and consume wood 24/7 from below ground, often undetected until serious damage occurs.
  • Formosan Termites – An aggressive, invasive species known for large colonies and rapid destruction. They can chew through wood, flooring, and even wallpaper with alarming speed.
  • Drywood Termites – Less common but dangerous, especially in attics and furniture. They require no ground contact and live inside the wood they consume, making them harder to detect and treat.

Why Termites Are Dangerous and Expensive

Termites cause over $5 billion in property damage annually in the U.S.—and insurance typically doesn't cover it. They compromise the structural integrity of your home or office by hollowing out beams, flooring, and walls from the inside. Left untreated, a termite infestation can result in unsafe living conditions and extensive repair costs.

How JDC Pest Control Eliminates Termites

  • Thorough Termite Inspection – We use visual inspections, moisture meters, and, when needed, specialized equipment to locate termite colonies and assess damage.
  • Baiting Systems – We strategically place underground bait stations around your property to attract and eliminate entire termite colonies, including the queen.
  • Liquid Barrier Treatments – We apply non-repellent termiticides around your foundation, creating a protective barrier that termites can’t detect until it’s too late.
  • Targeted Spot Treatments – For drywood infestations or localized activity, we use precision injections and foams directly into wood or wall voids.
  • Preventive Monitoring – After treatment, we offer ongoing inspections and optional monitoring plans to ensure your home remains termite-free.
