Local Treatment
Local treatments provide targeted, effective solutions for termite activity that’s confined to specific areas of your home. At Lighthouse Termite Control, we offer precision-based options — including spot treatments and soil injections — designed to eliminate active termites without the need for full fumigation. Our experienced inspectors identify exactly where the problem is and apply the most suitable treatment method, giving you fast results, honest recommendations, and dependable protection where you need it most.
Spot Treatment
What the service is: Spot treatments are targeted applications designed to eliminate termites in specific, localized areas of infestation without treating the entire structure. This approach focuses on accessible problem spots — such as baseboards, trim, or attic spaces — using termiticides or localized injection methods. Spot treatments are ideal for minor infestations or as a follow-up to previous termite work.
​​
Why’ it’s important: Not every infestation requires a full fumigation. When termite activity is limited to a small, contained area, spot treatments offer an effective, affordable, and less disruptive solution. Addressing the problem early prevents it from spreading and helps maintain the integrity of your home’s structure while saving you time and money.
​
How Lighthouse does it better: At Lighthouse Termite Control, our experienced inspectors thoroughly assess your property to ensure a spot treatment is the right solution. We use precision application techniques to eliminate termites exactly where they’re hiding, without unnecessary chemical exposure or additional costs. Our honest approach means we recommend only what you truly need — providing targeted results, transparent communication, and lasting peace of mind for homeowners across San Diego County.
Soil Injection Treatment
What the service is: Soil injection treatments create a protective barrier around the foundation of your home to stop subterranean termites from entering. During the process, a liquid termiticide is carefully injected into the soil along the perimeter and beneath concrete areas where termites travel. This forms an invisible shield that kills termites on contact and prevents future infestations from breaching your home’s structure.
​
Why’ it’s important: Subterranean termites live underground and can invade through even the smallest cracks in your foundation. Left untreated, they can cause significant structural damage over time. Soil injection treatments act as a long-term defense system, protecting your property from the ground up. It’s one of the most effective preventative measures for keeping your home termite-free.
