Termite Control & Prevention
Proudly Serving South Carolina | North Carolina | Georgia | Florida
Termites are the most destructive pest by a wide margin. Every year, they do about $5 billion in damages to homes. At Rocket, our commitment to helping you protect your property is unwavering. Since 1965, we’ve proudly provided reliable termite control in South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida, and Georgia.
The good news about termites is that if you catch them early, you can often avoid significant damage. Termite colonies start small. As they grow, the amount of damage they can do multiplies. It’s also much more difficult to eliminate a large infestation than a small one. That’s why it’s always the best policy to call our professional termite exterminators at the first sign of trouble. Our team will perform a full inspection and craft a strategic plan for effective termite removal and prevention.

Learn how to tell the difference between termites and ants. It’s a valuable skill to have as a homeowner.
Can you prevent termites in your home?
We have some tips to reduce the risk of termite infestation on your property. These aren’t one hundred percent guaranteed to prevent all termite infestations — sometimes, swarmers show up with little warning — but it will make your property less attractive to them than your neighbors’.
What's the best DIY termite treatment?
For some types of pests, homeowners can try DIY treatment before calling us – the stakes are relatively low. With termites, it’s a different story. Unsuccessful DIY termite treatments can mean the colony continues on, growing larger, damaging your house over time.

What are the most common types of termites in the Southeast?
The Southeast offers a warm and humid climate that termites love. As a result, we deal with a lot of termites here. Drywood termites and subterranean termites are the most common. Here are some others you might encounter:
- Drywood termites – Very common. Not as aggressive as Formosan and have smaller colonies
- Formosan subterranean termites – They are aggressive and invasive, a single colony may contain several million termites
- Asian subterranean termites – These aggressive and invasive termites form massive colonies that cause a large percentage of the damage in Florida
- Eastern subterranean termites – Native to North America. Often found in building timber
- Dampwood termites – Commonly found in warm and humid climates, they infest structures with wood-to-soil contact areas where wood is constantly in contact with damp or wet soil, or areas with water from leaks or standing water. These termites are not considered a major structural pest.
