Local Termite Pressure
Why do Foley properties get termites?
Termites need moisture and wood. Alabama Extension says termites are drawn to water and cellulose. Foley has warm, humid weather most of the year, sandy and moisture-prone ground, wooded lots, and plenty of wood-framed homes and crawl spaces across Baldwin County. That gives termites both of the things they need.
Native and Formosan termites
Colonies live in the soil and travel through mud tubes to reach wood. Extension reports that Formosan termites are most common in the coastal counties and are expanding into central Alabama. Foley is on the Gulf Coast.
Wooded lots and shade
Dense vegetation and shaded areas hold moisture, including lots near Graham Creek and Wolf Bay. Stumps, roots, and leaf litter put food close to the house.
Crawl-space homes
Damp crawl spaces, wood piers and sills close to soil, and plumbing leaks are common entry points.
New construction and cleared land
Growth around Highway 59 and County Road 20 means land clearing. Buried wood and stumps can sit next to new slabs, so newer homes are not exempt.
Sheds, fences, and firewood
Wood stored on the ground or set in soil is an easy food source and a bridge to the structure.
Mulch and drainage
Mulch piled against the foundation and gutters that dump water at the slab keep the soil next to your house damp.

Foley Property Types
Which Foley properties are most at risk?
The risk points depend on how the structure is built. A slab home in a newer subdivision and a crawl-space home on a wooded lot off County Road 12 do not have the same exposure.
Inspection Blueprint
What does a Foley termite inspection cover?
A termite inspection is a structural inspection. We look at where wood meets soil or moisture, and whether there is existing damage or active pressure.
Book My Free InspectionFoundation line and slab
Mud tubes, expansion joints, plumbing penetrations, and siding or trim close to soil.
Crawl space and moisture
Damp soil, condensation, plumbing leaks, and wood-to-soil contact at piers and sills.
Drainage, grade, and landscaping
Water flow toward the structure, mulch depth, irrigation, and stumps or buried wood.
Decks, additions, and exterior wood
Posts set in soil, steps, fences touching the house, and wood tied into newer additions.
Interior wood and prior treatment
Baseboards, window and door framing, soft or blistered wood, and any existing bait stations or treatment history.
Treatment options
Should I choose bait stations or liquid treatment?
It depends on what the inspection finds. Bait stations are the first option for most qualifying properties. Liquid treatment is usually the call when termites are already active in the structure. DIY sprays from the store rarely reach the colony, and they can hide the surface signs while activity continues.
Trelona® Bait Stations
Stations sit in the soil around the structure. Termites feed on the bait and carry it back to the colony. We monitor the stations as part of your plan. No drilling through floors, patios, or porches.
- $499 setup, then $30 a month on qualifying homes
- Termites carry the bait back to the colony
- Minimal disruption to landscaping and hardscape
Liquid Termite Treatment
A treated zone in the soil around the foundation and entry points. Usually the call when termites are already active in the structure. Priced after the inspection.
- Used when termites are already active
- Applied based on what the inspection finds
- Can be combined with bait stations for ongoing protection
Plain terms
What does termite protection cover, and what does it not?
Termite protection covers monitoring, an annual inspection, and re-treatment if termites return to a covered area while your plan is active. It does not cover repair of termite damage. We say that up front so you can plan for it.
What your plan covers
- Station monitoring and bait maintenance.
- An annual termite inspection. Alabama Extension calls the annual inspection one of the most important parts of a termite treatment.
- Re-treatment at no charge if termites return to a covered area, with a response within 48 hours.
- Transfer of your agreement to the buyer if you sell.
- No early-cancellation fee.
What it does not cover
- Repair of termite damage. We do not do carpentry or structural repair.
- Properties with active termites. These need treatment first, priced after the inspection.
- Homes with spray foam insulation. They do not qualify for the $499 and $30 offer.
- Stations beyond the first 16. Those are an additional charge.

The termite inspection is free. Alabama Termite & Pest Services inspects your Foley property, explains what was found, and confirms your price before any work begins. You keep the findings whether or not you hire us.
Are termites common in Foley, AL?
Yes. Termites need moisture and wood, and Foley has warm, humid weather, moisture-prone ground, wooded lots, and many wood-framed homes and crawl spaces. Alabama Extension reports that Formosan termites are most common in the coastal counties, and Foley is on the Gulf Coast. An inspection shows which risk points your property has.
What are the signs of termites in a Foley home?
The main signs of termites are winged termites indoors, discarded wings near windows or doors, mud tubes on the foundation, hollow-sounding or soft wood, and paint or flooring that bubbles for no clear reason. Termite damage often looks like water damage. If you see any of these in your Foley home, call 251-752-0506 for a free inspection.
Do newer homes in Foley need termite protection?
They can. Buried wood from land clearing, mulch beds against the slab, and nearby wooded land can bring termites to newer homes. An inspection shows where your home's risk points are.
Does DIY termite spray work?
Store-bought sprays can reduce surface activity, but most termite activity is hidden in the soil and behind walls. They rarely reach the colony, and without monitoring, activity can restart unnoticed. A professional inspection shows what is actually going on.
Should I choose bait stations or liquid treatment?
It depends on what the inspection finds. Alabama Termite & Pest Services uses Trelona® bait stations as the first option for most qualifying Foley properties, and liquid treatment when termites are already active in the structure. Liquid and combination treatments are priced after the inspection. Your technician reviews the options with you.
What does termite coverage include in Foley?
Coverage is re-treatment only. If termites return to a covered area while your plan is active, Alabama Termite & Pest Services responds within 48 hours and re-treats at no additional charge. The plan includes station monitoring and an annual inspection. It does not cover repair of termite damage.
Is there a contract, and does it transfer if I sell?
Your first year is a 12-month agreement. After that, your plan continues month to month with no early-cancellation fee. The agreement transfers to the buyer when you sell your Foley property. Your technician walks you through the terms before you sign.
What if you find active termites?
The $499 setup price does not apply to properties with active termites. Active termites need their own treatment, usually liquid treatment, and Alabama Termite & Pest Services gives you that price after the inspection.
What should I know about termite treatments around kids and pets?
Products are applied according to their EPA-registered labels by licensed Alabama technicians. Your technician explains what was applied, where, and how long to stay away from a treated area. Tell us before the visit about any sensitivity or medical concern.
