Termite Control & Inspections in Central Pennsylvania
Professional Termite Inspections
At Align Pest Control Services, we provide free professional termite inspections for homeowners throughout Central Pennsylvania. Our trained technicians carefully inspect foundations, crawl spaces, basements, and exterior areas where termite activity is most likely to occur.
During a termite inspection, we look for early warning signs including termite swarmers, mud tubes on foundations, damaged or hollow wood, and conditions that may attract termite colonies to your property.
Early detection can prevent thousands of dollars in structural damage, which is why routine inspections are one of the most important steps in protecting your home.
Signs of Termite Activity
Subterranean termites often remain hidden for years, but they leave behind warning signs that homeowners should watch for.
Common signs of termites include:
- • Winged termite swarmers appearing in spring
• Discarded wings near windows or doors
• Mud tubes along foundations or walls
• Soft, hollow, or damaged wood
• Bubbling or uneven paint surfaces
If you notice any of these signs around your home, a professional termite inspection should be scheduled as soon as possible.

Trelona® Termite Monitoring & Protection System
The Trelona® termite monitoring and protection system is one of the most effective methods available for detecting and eliminating subterranean termite colonies around your home.
This system uses specially designed monitoring stations installed in the soil around the structure to detect termite activity before major damage occurs. When termite activity is discovered, bait is introduced into the stations to eliminate the colony at its source.
Unlike traditional liquid barrier treatments that rely on chemical barriers in the soil, monitoring systems focus on detecting termite activity and eliminating the colony responsible for the infestation.
This approach provides long-term protection by continuously monitoring for termite activity around your home.
Benefits of the Trelona System
- ✔ Detects termite activity early
✔ Targets and eliminates termite colonies
✔ Provides continuous monitoring around the home
✔ Long-term protection against termite damage
How Termite Stations Are Installed Around Your Home
Custom Termite Station Installation
Trelona® termite monitoring and Prevention stations are installed in the soil around the structure of your home to provide continuous monitoring for termite activity.
Stations are typically placed every 10–15 feet around the structure, following manufacturer guidelines that recommend spacing up to a maximum of 20 feet.
This placement ensures complete monitoring coverage around the property while allowing technicians to detect termite activity as early as possible.
The number of stations installed depends on the linear footage of the structure and any additional buildings, such as detached garages, sheds, or other structures on the property.

Designed For Complete Property Coverage
Every home is different, which is why termite station placement is customized for each property.
Stations are installed around the home’s foundation and other structures where termite activity may occur. In areas where soil access is limited, such as across driveways or concrete walkways, spacing may be adjusted to maintain effective coverage.
This customized installation approach ensures the monitoring system provides complete protection while minimizing disruption to the property.
