Before you compare our termite protection against another company’s, it is worth reading what the $1,000,000 damage repair coverage actually covers, subject to the terms of the agreement.

If you have been quoted a trench-and-drill liquid barrier instead, compare the two in Sentricon vs. liquid termite treatment.

For termite control in Birmingham, AL, EnviroCare installs the Sentricon® Always Active™ bait system — a termite control method that eliminates the entire subterranean termite colony rather than only treating the soil you can see. Most liquid termite treatment services create a chemical barrier that requires drilling through your slab, patio, and driveway, then loses strength and needs retreatment every five to seven years. Across the Birmingham area, Sentricon® bait stations sit in the ground around your home's perimeter, so there is no drilling, no concrete cutting, and no tank trucks in the yard.

EnviroCare is a locally owned, professional pest control company serving Birmingham and the surrounding metro. Beyond termite treatment, our technicians handle residential pest control and commercial pest control services, so one local pest control team can protect your home or business from termites and common household pests alike. For many Birmingham homeowners, a thorough termite inspection is the first step toward year-round peace of mind — and a preventative plan that protects your home before termites can cause structural damage. Among Birmingham pest control companies, our comprehensive termite protection pairs Sentricon® bait with annual termite inspections, giving you professional termite services and termite treatment options rather than a one-size exterminator visit.

Termites cause damage quietly, and an active termite infestation can go unnoticed until it reaches structural wood. With Sentricon®, foraging termites carry the bait back to the colony, collapsing it from the inside — which stops both an existing infestation and future ones. Every protected Birmingham home includes an annual termite inspection and one Wood-Destroying Organism (WDO) inspection letter per year, the document lenders require for refinancing or selling.

Behind it stands EnviroCare-backed coverage: up to $1,000,000 in damage repair coverage while we maintain your Sentricon® protection, subject to the terms of the agreement. Installation takes most Birmingham homes one to two hours, and you do not need to be an existing pest control customer to start — though many Birmingham families add bi-monthly pest control after their termite inspection.

Birmingham's humidity, mild winters, and clay-heavy soil make the metro one of the most active subterranean termite regions in the country. Jefferson and Shelby County homes sit in heavy termite pressure: a single colony can number in the hundreds of thousands and forage silently through floor joists, sills, and framing for years before any sign shows. That is why Birmingham termite protection has to be continuous monitoring rather than a one-time treatment you hope holds.

Watch for the early warning signs of a termite infestation: mud tubes running up your foundation, piers, or crawlspace walls; wood that sounds hollow when tapped or paint that looks rippled or bubbled; discarded wings near windows and doors after a spring swarm; doors or windows that suddenly stick from subtle warping; and frass or visible galleries in damaged wood. If you spot any of these at your Birmingham home, schedule a free WDO termite inspection — early action is the difference between a monitoring plan and a repair bill.

Why EnviroCare

The Termite Difference

Sentricon® > liquid barriers
Liquid termite control services require drilling concrete, retreating every 5–7 years, and lose effectiveness as they break down. Sentricon® bait stations eliminate the entire colony, not just the perimeter.
$1M is real coverage
Real EnviroCare-backed damage repair coverage, subject to the terms of the agreement — not a vague promise. If termites damage your home while protected, you get fixed, not finger-pointed.
No drilling means no damage
Liquid barrier installations drill every 12 inches through your slab, patio, driveway. Sentricon® stations go in the ground around the perimeter. No concrete touched.
Gloved hand pressing a termite bait station into the soil of a green lawn
Bait stations go into the soil around the house. No drilling through slabs, patios or driveways.
Common Questions

About Termite Control

How is Sentricon® different from liquid termite treatments?
Liquid treatments create a chemical barrier in the soil around your foundation — they require drilling through concrete, work for 5–7 years before needing retreatment, and don't eliminate the colony. Sentricon® places bait stations in the ground that termites carry back to the colony, eliminating the whole population. No drilling required.
What does the $1M coverage actually cover?
If subterranean termites cause damage to your home while you're on the Sentricon® Always Active™ system and we've been maintaining it, EnviroCare covers repair costs up to $1,000,000, subject to the terms of the agreement. That coverage is backed by EnviroCare directly.
Will Sentricon® mess up my landscaping?
No. Bait stations are small (about the size of a soda can) and installed flush with the ground around your home perimeter. No drilling, no concrete cuts, no torn-up flowerbeds.
How long does installation take?
Most homes are installed in 1–2 hours. We mark station locations with you first, then place them. You'll see them but they don't disrupt anything.
How much does termite control cost in Birmingham, AL?
Sentricon® termite control is priced at inspection, never as a flat number, because no two Birmingham homes need the same system. What sets the price: the length of the foundation perimeter (which sets how many bait stations go in), the construction and slab type, whether termites are already active, and the ongoing monitoring that keeps the system working. The WDO termite inspection is free, and you get a written quote for your home before anything is installed.
What are common signs of a termite infestation?
The most common signs are mud tubes running up foundation or crawlspace walls, wood that sounds hollow when tapped or looks rippled, discarded swarmer wings near windows after a spring swarm, and frass. A free termite inspection confirms whether you have an active termite infestation in your Birmingham home.
Do I need to be a current customer?
No. We install Sentricon® for any Alabama home in our service area. Many customers add bi-monthly pest control after experiencing our termite service.
What about during a real estate transaction?
We provide WDO (Wood-Destroying Organism) inspection letters for refinancing and home sales. One included per year on active accounts; otherwise $125 standalone fee.
What if I already have an active termite infestation?
Sentricon® handles an active infestation as well as prevention — the colony feeds on the bait and collapses from the inside. Unlike termite control services that only treat what you can see, colony elimination stops the damage at its source in your Birmingham home.
