How much does termite treatment cost in Marco Island?

It depends on the home’s size, foundation, and whether it is subterranean or drywood, so the price comes from a free inspection. A subterranean Termidor barrier is priced by linear foundation footage; drywood treatment by the areas infested.

What is the difference between subterranean and drywood termites?

Subterranean termites live in the soil and enter through the foundation, building mud tubes — they cause the most damage. Drywood termites live inside the wood itself, in attics and fascia, with no soil contact. The treatment is completely different.

Do I need a WDO inspection to buy or sell in Marco Island?

For most Florida real estate transactions, yes — a WDO inspection reports active or past termite and wood-decay activity, and lenders and buyers rely on it at closing. We perform WDO inspections throughout Collier County.

Termite Treatment in Marco Island, FL

Termite Treatment Built for Marco Island

Marco Island's waterfront estates, condos, and seasonal rentals face both termite types. Subterranean colonies push up from Collier's sandy soil into ground-contact framing, while drywood termites — the more common island threat — infest fascia, trim, and attic wood in the salt-air homes here without any soil contact. We inspect for both, install a Termidor barrier where subterranean activity warrants it, and treat drywood infestations directly, which on Marco is the usual finding.

Which Termite Is Threatening Your Marco Island Home?

Subterranean Termites

The top threat in Collier County. They swarm up from the soil, build mud tubes on the foundation, and hollow out framing unseen — treated with a Termidor liquid barrier.

Drywood Termites

Live entirely inside the wood — attics, fascia, and window frames — with no soil contact. Treated with targeted, no-tent options where the situation allows.
