You will find that very few liquid termiticide guarantees or warranties will cover damage to your home. Some do cover damage but there are often many stipulations to that coverage. More often the pest management company provides a warranty which covers re-treatment only. Basically if the home is treated for termites and subsequent activity is found in the home within the time covered by the warranty, the pest management company will return and retreat the infested area. By contrast baiting systems will often come with a full wood repair warranty, some covering up to $250,000.00 in damage. Bait systems are so much more expensive and demand such a high level of cooperation between the PMP and the homeowner that the repair warranty is added to create additional value for the bait customer. PMPs have also realized that by providing the damage warranty for their bait systems they are better able to compete with the significantly less expensive liquid treatments on the market.
