Our Process

Our Process: Expert Wood Boring Beetle Treatment Olympia

We pride ourselves on a simple, straight forward no-frills process.

You call, we inspect and diagnose

Our wood boring beetle treatment begins with a mandatory 60 to 90-minute Peace of Mind Inspection of your entire Olympia property, including the attic and crawlspace, to identify the specific species and extent of the infestation.

This comprehensive diagnosis is crucial during the summer as beetle activity increases, allowing us to find evidence like new emergence holes from pests such as Powder Post Beetles and provide a detailed report with annotated photos and a precise treatment plan.

We treat pests where they live

Our second step involves directly treating the infested wood where the beetle larvae live and feed. For example, we apply a heated Bora-Care solution that penetrates deep into the lumber, eliminating the destructive larvae from within the wood.

We report our findings, and create a plan

In the third step of our wood boring beetle treatment process, we provide a comprehensive written report documenting all findings from our heated Bora-Care application, including detailed photos of treated areas and any new emergence holes that may appear during Olympia’s active August beetle season when adult powder post beetles are most likely to emerge from treated lumber. We then establish an ongoing post-treatment monitoring plan with up to two free inspections within our 18-month limited warranty period, ensuring that any summer moisture issues common to Pacific Northwest crawlspaces don’t compromise the treatment’s effectiveness or create conditions that could void your warranty coverage.

Service Types

We Offer Residential & Commercial Pest Control Options In Olympia

Whether you need pest control for your home or business, we have you covered.

Residential pest control Olympia

We treat wood-boring beetle infestations with heated Bora-Care applied directly to all exposed lumber in your crawlspace or attic. This specialized borate treatment penetrates deep into the wood to eliminate larvae feeding inside the timber. For example, we typically remove existing insulation to ensure complete coverage of all structural wood, then apply the heated solution that continues protecting your home long after the initial treatment dries.

Our process includes a thorough inspection to identify active infestation areas and determine the full scope of treatment needed. We focus on reaching every piece of accessible lumber because even small untreated sections can allow the infestation to continue. The treatment comes with an 18-month limited re-treatment warranty, and we offer up to two free inspections during that period if you notice any concerns.

New emergence holes may appear after treatment, but this doesn’t necessarily mean the infestation is still active. The larvae already inside the wood when we treat will complete their life cycle and exit, but they won’t be able to re-infest the treated lumber. We’ll walk you through what to expect and help you understand the difference between old activity and new concerns throughout your warranty period.

Commercial pest control Olympia

We protect Olympia’s commercial properties from wood-boring beetles with comprehensive treatment solutions designed for the Pacific Northwest’s unique challenges. Our service covers warehouses, office buildings, retail spaces, and industrial facilities throughout the Thurston County area, where moisture and our region’s climate create ideal conditions for these destructive pests.

For example, we apply heated Bora-Care treatment to all exposed lumber in crawl spaces and structural areas, often coordinating insulation removal to ensure complete penetration and larvae elimination. We back our work with an 18-month limited re-treatment warranty, providing up to two free inspections and complimentary re-treatment if live activity is detected during that period.

Our approach addresses the root causes common in Olympia commercial buildings. We identify moisture issues, ventilation problems, and conducive conditions that attract powder post beetles and other wood-boring species to your property.
