Protect your home before termites cause serious damage
Termites are quiet, persistent, and destructive. They don’t announce themselves, and by the time most homeowners notice a problem, damage is already underway. In Charlotte’s warm, humid climate, termite activity is common, and ignoring early signs can lead to costly repairs.
Black Pest’s termite exterminators help homeowners identify termite activity early, eliminate active colonies, and protect their homes long term, always focusing on precision, prevention, and peace of mind.
Signs you may need a termite exterminator
Charlotte is home to several termite species, which makes knowing the warning signs especially important.
Common indicators that you should call for termite control:
- Discarded wings near windows or doors
- Mud tubes along foundations or walls
- Wood that sounds hollow when tapped
- Floors, doors, or trim that suddenly feel uneven
If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to act quickly. Early intervention can prevent damage from spreading further into your home.
How our termite exterminator services work
Every home is different, and termite exterminator services are rarely one-size-fits-all. That’s why our process starts with a thorough inspection and a plan tailored to your property.
Inspection & detection
We assess visible areas and high-risk zones to locate activity, entry points, and conditions that attract termites.
Targeted termite control treatment options
Depending on your home and infestation level, we may recommend:
- Non-invasive baiting systems
- Liquid barrier applications
- Ongoing monitoring for long-term protection
Our goal is to eliminate termites at the source while minimizing disruption to your home.
Safety comes first
All treatments are selected with safety in mind. We use family- and pet-conscious methods that are effective without being harsh on your living environment.
Preventing future termite problems
If you’re experiencing an infestation, then termite control treatment is critical. But even in the absence of an active problem, prevention plays an equally important role in protecting your home.
Steps homeowners can take beyond termite control
- Reduce moisture around the foundation
- Ensure proper drainage near the home
- Keep firewood stored away from exterior walls
- Avoid wood-to-soil contact
- Stay on top of routine home maintenance
Why inspections matter
Even with good habits, termites can still find a way in. Periodic professional inspections help catch issues early and keep small problems from becoming expensive ones.

We've used Black Pest for the past 16yrs. Started with our first home and we've continued to use them for each home after moving twice. Always professional, easy to work with, their treatments are effective and in the few times we've needed additional treatments between scheduled visits, they've come out at no additional charge. Have recommended to many neighbors and friends who have same experience.
