Customized Pest Control Solutions
A wooded acre and a slab-foundation subdivision home need different work. In Peachtree Corners we quote after walking the property rather than from a price list, so what gets applied follows what the inspection actually finds.

Most treatments are one visit plus a check. If anything is still active when we come back to your Peachtree Corners property, we treat it again - that return visit is part of the job, not a second call-out.
Call Us NowThe landscaping standard here works against termite inspection more than anything else about the city. Deep mulch beds held to building lines, dense planting against walls and irrigation running on a schedule combine to keep foundation soil permanently damp and to hide the surface where evidence would appear.
On commercial buildings the same standard is applied at scale and maintained under contract, so it does not change because of a pest inspection. What can change is the strip immediately against the building: mulch kept below the weep line, planting held back far enough to see the foundation, and irrigation adjusted so that strip dries between cycles. Those three are the practical recommendations here, they are within a facilities manager control, and they matter more than anything applied to the soil.
| What | When it comes up here | What you notice first |
|---|---|---|
| Eastern subterranean termite | Active year round, swarming March to May | Mud tubes on foundation walls, discarded wings on sills after a swarm |
| Evidence before insects | Year round | Timber that sounds hollow, blistered paint, mud tubes running from soil to structure |
| Deep mulch held to building lines | Year round | Damp foundation soil, bridged weep holes |
| Dense planting against walls | Year round | Evidence surface hidden from view |
| Scheduled irrigation at the foundation | Year round | Soil that never dries between cycles |
Most of our work in Peachtree Corners is residential, and treatment is scheduled around your family rather than around us. Residential pest control
Commercial work is scheduled around your trading hours and documented after every visit, which is what an inspector or auditor asks for. Commercial pest control
Swarming is the visible event and usually happens on warm days from March into May, often after rain.
Feeding continues all year underground and inside timber, so activity is not seasonal even though swarms are.
Autumn and winter are good times for inspection, because access is easier and no swarm is needed to find evidence.
A colony does not die back over winter, and a season without a swarm is not evidence that one has gone.
Then the useful change is the strip against the building, which can be specified.
That bridges the gap and lets activity travel behind the veneer unseen.
Then evidence cannot be seen either, which is the part that matters.

FAQ
Three things: mulch kept below the weep holes, planting held back far enough that the foundation is visible, and irrigation adjusted so the strip against the building dries between cycles. All three are within your control and they matter more than anything applied to the soil.
They are designed to drain and ventilate the cavity behind brick veneer. Mulch piled above them bridges that gap, which lets activity travel up behind the brick without crossing any visible surface. Keeping mulch below the weep line closes a concealed route.
Structural pest control, including wood destroying organism work, is licensed at state level by the Georgia Department of Agriculture rather than by the county. Suwanee sits in Gwinnett County, whose environmental health department handles public health reporting rather than licensing.
For inspection, yes. Termites are present across Georgia regardless of landscaping. What landscaping decides is whether foundation soil stays damp and whether you can see the surface where evidence appears. Both change the odds of finding activity early rather than late.
