Termite control
Do you notice damage in wood or small piles of dust near furniture or structures? These could be signs of termites – insects that act silently and can weaken wood over time. Our company offers professional solutions for eliminating termites quickly, safely and effectively.
Trust specialists who will analyze the situation and apply the most appropriate termite infestation treatment.
Termites: what they are, how to identify them and why they require professional treatment
Termites are small insects that feed mainly on cellulose found in wood. Their bodies are usually light in color, whitish or beige, and they live in highly organized colonies that can contain thousands of individuals. They typically inhabit soil, wooden structures, or humid and dark areas where they can easily find food.
At first glance, termites may go unnoticed because they move inside the wood or through hidden tunnels. Over time, however, their activity can cause serious structural damage, weakening beams, furniture, and other wooden elements within a building.
When signs of termite activity appear, it is essential to apply an appropriate termite treatment. Professional termite pest control allows specialists to detect the source of the infestation and eliminate it effectively. Experienced termite control services include a thorough inspection and tailored termite treatment services designed to protect homes, hotels, and other types of buildings from further damage.

How do we carry out termite control? Professional strategy and effective termite control services
Termites can silently damage wooden structures for a long time before their presence becomes visible. For this reason, professional termite pest control services require a well-planned process that allows specialists to detect the infestation, apply the appropriate anti termite treatment, and protect wood from future attacks. At our termite extermination company, every intervention follows a clear and effective technical strategy.
Termite extermination in 3 clear steps:
1. Inspection and expert assessment
2. Application of the professional termite treatment
3. Monitoring and prevention
Our goal is to stop termite activity at its source, protect wooden structures, and apply effective and safe solutions, always tailored to the characteristics of each infestation.
Termite control methods
Termites can silently destroy beams, wooden floors and furniture from the inside. As a company with extensive experience in termite pest control, we act before the damage becomes irreversible. Our termite control approach covers everything from early detection to complete termite extermination of the colony.
Wood impregnation
We apply biocidal products with insecticidal and fungicidal action directly to the wood. Depending on the depth of the attack, we use brushing, spraying or pressure injection, allowing the product to penetrate deep into the structure. This treatment can also be applied preventively, protecting the wood for years against future infestations – an essential part of any long-term termite pest control plan.
Termite fumigation
Termite fumigation involves introducing a fumigant gas into a hermetically sealed space. Because it is a gas, it penetrates deep into the wood, eliminating termites at all stages of development: eggs, larvae and adults. It is the most comprehensive method for severe infestations and a key procedure in advanced termite treatment strategies. The process requires certified personnel and strict safety measures. For long-term protection, we recommend combining fumigation with subsequent wood impregnation as part of professional termite control services.
Other methods
To combat wood-boring insects, pressure injection and the Veloxy method – an anaerobic technology – can also be used.

How much does termite control treatment cost?
The price of each termite treatment for wood depends on several factors: the area to be treated, the level of infestation, and the most suitable method for each case.

What do we know about termites? Biology and behavior
Termites are social insects that live in highly organized colonies that can contain up to several million individuals. Although they are often confused with ants, they belong to a completely different order and have been living on Earth for more than 250 million years.
Most common species in Spain
The most widespread species in the Iberian Peninsula is Reticulitermes grassei, a subterranean termite that builds its colonies underground and reaches wood through hidden tunnels. Another relevant species is Kalotermes flavicollis, known as the drywood termite, which does not require contact with soil and nests directly inside the wood it feeds on. Both species can cause serious structural damage if an appropriate anti termite treatment is not applied in time.
Behavior and colony organization
Each colony is divided into castes: reproductives, soldiers and workers. It is the workers that cause the damage, as they feed on cellulose found in wood, paper and other organic materials. The most dangerous aspect is that they act from inside the material, making structures appear intact on the outside while they are gradually weakened from within. For this reason, a proper termite treatment should begin as soon as the first signs of activity appear.
When should you act?
The most common signs of an infestation include small piles of sawdust, visible galleries in the wood, discarded wings near windows, or a hollow sound when tapping a beam. If you notice any of these signs, the most recommended step is to contact a professional termite specialist. The sooner you contact the termite treatment company, the lower the damage and repair costs will be.
At SolPest, we have the expertise and equipment necessary for safely eliminating termites, adapting the termite treatment to the characteristics of each building and the specific type of infestation.
