Delray Beach Termite Control — stop the silent threat to your home’s value.
Subterranean and drywood termites cause more damage to South Florida homes than fires and storms combined — and Delray Beach’s coastal humidity and older wood-frame homes make it prime territory. Bugsy’s finds them, stops them, and protects your home, with a $99 inspection credited toward treatment.
Why termites love Delray Beach
Termites need warmth, moisture, and wood — and Delray Beach offers all three year-round. Our humid, frost-free climate lets colonies stay active every month of the year, and the city’s mix of historic wood-frame homes in Lake Ida and Del-Ida Park, waterfront properties along the Intracoastal, and slab-built homes to the west gives termites countless ways in.
There are two very different threats here, and they’re treated differently. Subterranean termites (including aggressive Formosan termites) live in the soil and enter through foundations, slabs, and cracks — often invisibly. Drywood termites live entirely inside dry structural wood, framing, and attics, with no soil contact at all. Spring is peak swarm season, when both send out winged reproductives to start new colonies — and when many homeowners first discover they have a problem.
The two termites we treat in Delray Beach
Correct identification drives the right treatment — they are not the same job.
Subterranean & Formosan Termites
Soil-dwelling termites that enter from the ground through foundations and slabs, often building mud tubes. Formosan colonies are especially large and destructive. Learn more in our subterranean termite guide.
Drywood Termites
Live entirely inside dry wood — framing, trim, attics, and furniture — especially common in Delray’s older homes. Signs include tiny pellet-like droppings (frass) and discarded wings.
How we treat termites — two proven paths
We tailor the method to the species and your home.
Subterranean: trench-and-treat + drill-outs
We create a treated zone in the soil around and beneath the structure, drilling through slabs where needed, so foraging termites are eliminated at the source.
Subterranean: baiting + spot treatment
Trelona bait stations installed around the home intercept and eliminate the colony, paired with targeted spot treatment where activity is present.
Drywood: no-tent BoraCare + spot
For drywood termites we use targeted BoraCare and spot treatments — no tent fumigation, so you don’t have to bag food, board pets, or leave your home.
How our termite service works
$99 inspection
A licensed technician inspects the structure, attic, and foundation for active termites and conducive conditions. The $99 fee is credited toward your treatment if work is needed.
Identify the species
We confirm whether you’re dealing with subterranean, Formosan, or drywood termites — because the treatment is completely different.
Targeted treatment
We apply the right method for your termites and your home’s construction, whether that’s soil treatment, baiting, or no-tent drywood treatment.
Warranty & monitoring
Your treatment is warranty-backed, with monitoring and periodic re-inspection to keep the colony from coming back.
The $99 inspection that pays for itself
A termite inspection is $99 in Delray Beach — and we credit that $99 toward your treatment if work is needed. Given how common both subterranean and drywood termites are here, especially in older neighborhoods, it’s one of the smartest protections for your home’s value.
