Our team offers expert termite control services to help you protect your property from their damage.
We at Overwatch Pest Management have been working in the pest control industry for many years, and we know how to effectively deal with just about any insect that could be threatening your property. In the Southeast, one of the most common and serious pest problems you need to worry about is termite infestations—these insects thrive in this region’s warm, humid climate, and they can do serious damage to your wooden structures if they are not dealt with promptly. Our team has the right tools and experience to provide the effective termite control services you need, and we encourage you to give us a call as soon as you suspect you have a problem.
One of the big problems with termites is that they eat wood from the inside out, which means that they often go undetected until they have done significant damage. However, although termites generally stay inside the tunnels they have eaten through your wood, they still leave signs of their presence. If you have a termite problem, you will likely see shed wings and piles of their droppings (which are called frass, and resemble sawdust or pepper), and will hear a hollow sound when you knock on wood that they have infested. We recommend that you schedule termite control services as soon as possible after you notice one of these signs.
Our team is proud to serve the community in Newnan, Georgia, and we have extensive experience in dealing with pests common to the area, including termites.

Hidden
What are the signs of a termite infestation?
- Wood Damage: Termites consume wood from the inside out, leaving behind hollowed-out or damaged wood.
- Mud Tubes: Subterranean termites use mud tubes on walls, foundations, and other structures as protective passageways.
- Discarded Wings: After swarming, termites shed their wings, scattering them across windowsills and floors.
- Frass (Termite Droppings): You can see termite droppings, which might resemble sawdust, around affected locations.
What is the importance of addressing a termite infestation as soon as possible?
Termites can cause significant structural damage to buildings, resulting in costly repairs. Untreated termite infestations can lower property value, making it more difficult to sell or rent a home. Also, while termites do not pose a direct health danger to humans, their presence can aggravate respiratory problems in some people due to the potential for increased mold growth.
Why should I hire a pest control team for termite treatment?
We have the necessary skills and experience to correctly identify termite species and develop efficient treatment methods. Additionally, we use techniques that not only assist us in eliminating current termite infestations, but we also implement preventive measures to reduce the likelihood of new infestations. Finally, while DIY methods may exist, it’s safer to rely on qualified professionals to ensure effective termite control.
