Phoenix, Arizona · Termites
Termite concerns in Phoenix need an inspection first
DuneGuard guide · Reviewed
Mud tubes, discarded wings or changes in wood can justify closer inspection, but a homeowner observation alone cannot establish the species, extent or current activity. Subterranean termites may travel through shelter tubes between soil and a structure.
DuneGuard can help you prepare a termite request. Treatment choices and pricing need a provider's assessment; they cannot be determined by the animated house or a general pest package.
What to note before an inspection
- Describe what you observed and where: a foundation edge, garage, interior wall or another location. Record when you first noticed it.
- Keep any existing inspection reports or treatment records available for the professional who evaluates the property.
- Ask the inspector to distinguish evidence of past damage from current activity and explain any areas they could not access.

FAQ
Is termite treatment included when I select full coverage?
Full coverage means all six pest concerns are included in your request. It is not a treatment contract. Termite inspection and any treatment must be scoped and priced separately by the provider.
Does this request include a real-estate termite report?
Not automatically. If you need a report for a transaction, tell the provider which document and deadline are required and confirm that they can supply it.
