Termite Control in Kingwood, Texas
Termite control in Kingwood, Texas from Baywood Exterminating helps protect homes and businesses in the Livable Forest from subterranean, Formosan, and drywood termites.
Baywood Exterminating has been stopping termite infestations across Southeast Texas since 1947. Every job starts with an inspection, and the treatment plan is built around what we actually find, not a one-size-fits-all package.
Termite control in Kingwood, Texas is different because Kingwood was built inside a forest on purpose. Since Trailwood opened as the first village in 1971, Kingwood’s neighborhoods have been planned to disturb the trees as little as possible, linked by more than 75 miles of greenbelt trails and 500-plus acres of parks and preserves. From Bear Branch and Elm Grove to Kings Point, Mills Branch, and Sand Creek, homes sit under pines and hardwoods with shaded, damp soil and plenty of fallen wood. That is prime territory for subterranean termites.
A lot of that housing is getting older, too. Homes in the original villages date from the 1970s through the 1990s, and many sit on large, heavily landscaped lots where mulch, landscape timbers, and wood fences run right up to the slab.

How We Handle Termites in Kingwood
Inspect. We walk the property inside and out and show you what we find: mud tubes, damaged wood, pellets, swarmer wings, and the moisture or wood-to-soil contact that is inviting termites in.
Identify and plan. We confirm the species, because subterranean, Formosan, and drywood termites each need a different approach. Treatment plans are built around the inspection. For most homes that means a targeted liquid treatment, trenched and applied around the foundation to eliminate the colony at the source and leave a barrier behind, plus preventive service for homes that are at risk but not yet infested.
Written estimate. You get the price in writing before any work starts. No pressure and no surprises.
Treat. Our licensed technicians complete the treatment and explain what to expect over the following weeks.
Follow up. We schedule follow-up inspections so the protection keeps working year after year.

Termite Control for Kingwood's Wooded Villages
Kingwood residents talk about termite season every spring. In a 2024 thread on the Kingwood.com message board titled “Flying termite swarms,” neighbors traded notes on daytime swarms of native subterranean termites from February to May and nighttime Formosan swarms in late spring. One resident traced a swarm to old railroad ties. Another pulled out landscape timbers and found two that had rotted to the consistency of mulch. That is exactly what we look for: wood touching soil next to the house.
Water is the other half of the story. Hurricane Harvey flooded thousands of Kingwood homes in 2017, destroyed businesses throughout Kingwood Town Center, and put water on the second floor of Kingwood High School. Elm Grove flooded twice more in 2019. Homes that were gutted and rebuilt deserve a termite inspection, because moisture left in framing and soil is one of the main things that draws subterranean termites in.
Frequently Asked Questions About Termite Control in Kingwood, TX
My house was treated. Why am I still seeing termite swarmers?
A treatment protects the structure, but it does not stop colonies living in the yard, in old stumps, or in landscape timbers from swarming nearby in the spring. Swarmers outside are a warning sign. Swarmers inside the house nearly always mean an active infestation, so call for an inspection either way and we will tell you which one you are dealing with.
When do termites swarm in Kingwood?
It depends on the species. Native subterranean termites usually swarm from January through April, during the day, often right after a rain. Formosan termites swarm at night from early May through June and gather around porch lights and windows. Texas A&M entomologists point to the week before and after Mother’s Day as peak Formosan season. Drywood termites swarm in late summer and early fall. If you find winged termites or piles of wings inside, call for an inspection.
Do trees and mulch near my Kingwood home attract termites?
They can. Anything wooden in contact with soil, including stumps, landscape timbers, railroad ties, fence posts, and firewood stacked against the house, gives subterranean termites an easy path. Keep mulch pulled back a few inches from the slab, store firewood away from the house, and remove old stumps and timbers near the foundation. Those steps help, but they do not replace an inspection.
Should I get a termite inspection if my Kingwood home flooded during Harvey?
Yes, especially if it has been a few years. Flooding leaves moisture in sill plates, framing, and the soil around the slab. An inspection checks for active termites and for damage hidden behind repaired walls.
What is the difference between subterranean termites and drywood termites?
Subterranean termites live in the soil and build mud tubes to reach wood above ground. They are the most common and destructive type in Southeast Texas. Drywood termites live inside the wood itself and do not need soil contact. Both cause serious damage, but they require different treatment approaches, so we identify the species during the inspection.
Do you offer termite inspections for Kingwood home buyers?
Yes. We provide termite inspections for real estate transactions throughout Kingwood and the Lake Houston area. Getting it done early in the option period can save you from costly surprises after closing.
Does homeowners insurance cover termite damage in Texas?
Yes. We provide termite inspections for real estate transactions throughout Kingwood and the Lake Houston area. Getting it done early in the option period can save you from costly surprises after closing.
How much does termite treatment cost in Kingwood?
It depends on the size of the home, the construction type, the termite species, how far the activity has spread, and which treatment fits. A drywood infestation that needs tent fumigation is priced differently than a liquid treatment for subterranean termites. The inspection is free, and you get a written estimate before any work starts. Call 281-328-3665 to schedule.
