Termite Control in Aubrey, TX
New construction on ground that was pasture a few years ago, with buried timber underneath it. A house being three years old is not evidence of anything, so we check what the site work left behind.

Forterra Termite Control is an inspection, installation, and monitoring service for Dallas–Fort Worth homes, built around the Sentricon® bait system from Corteva Agriscience. A licensed Certified Sentricon Specialist inspects the home free of charge, installs bait stations every 10–20 linear feet around the foundation (per label), and returns on a monitoring schedule for as long as you're a customer. Preventative installs run $300–$400; installs addressing active termites run $700–$800; ongoing monitoring is $29/month and keeps the termite warranty active. DFW termite swarm season peaks March–May, when most homeowners first see discarded wings near windows, the highest-value time to schedule an inspection. Service is performed under Texas Pest Control License TPCL #850046.
Forterra Aubrey.
The Aubrey office is based out here rather than reaching from the metro, which is the difference between a route and a long drive at the end of one. W-2 technicians run it, never subcontractors, every visit is logged to the property, and the ★ 5.0 rating across 327 Google reviews is this office's own record.

New builds on disturbed ground.
Almost everything the Aubrey office inspects for termites is recent construction on land that was pasture or farm ground a few years ago. That matters in a specific way. Site clearing buries timber, stumps and form boards, and a subterranean colony feeding on that material sits under a brand new home with no visible sign above ground. A house being three years old is not evidence of anything.
Pre-treatment is the other variable. Where a slab was properly pre-treated before the pour the risk profile is genuinely different, and where it was not, or where nobody can produce the paperwork, it is worth knowing early. We check what is actually there rather than assuming the builder handled it, look hard at the plumbing penetrations and the slab edge, and recommend Sentricon or a liquid barrier based on the structure.
Acreage adds something the metro offices rarely deal with. Outbuildings, run-ins and timber structures sitting directly on soil are as attractive to a colony as the house, and treating the home while leaving those alone keeps a population working nearby. We say which structures belong in the treatment rather than quoting only the address.

Kill the colony. Not the lawn.
Most termite companies spray a liquid barrier around the foundation, gallons of termiticide pumped into the soil, recharged every few years. Sentricon is a different idea: let the termites find the bait, carry it home, and take out the whole colony themselves. It's quieter, cleaner, and it actually ends the problem.
“We picked Sentricon because it's the only termite method we'd install on our own house. A liquid barrier protects a slab; a bait system ends a colony. And when a customer cancels, a liquid treatment is already in the ground, we can't take it back. Sentricon monitoring is something we provide, every visit, for as long as you're with us. That's the kind of service we want to stand behind.”
Two phases. Usually one visit.
Inspection first, always free, always in writing. If you decide to move forward, the install typically happens on the same visit. About 45 minutes to place, scan, and diagram the stations.
Inspection
- 01
Walk the foundation.
Your tech checks the full perimeter, foundation, slab seams, weep holes, wood-to-ground contact, moisture points, and any accessible crawlspace.
- 02
Look for evidence.
Mud tubes, frass, hollow wood, discarded wings, sagging wood. We photograph anything worth noting, active or historical.
- 03
Written report with photos.
You get a plain-language report: what was found, what it means, whether a Sentricon install is worth doing, and what it would cost. Zero pressure to sign anything on the spot.
Installation
- 01
Place stations every 10–20 feet.
Sentricon stations go into the soil around your foundation, every 10–20 linear feet, per the product label. No drilling into slabs, no trenching, no landscaping damage.
- 02
Scan & diagram.
Each station is scanned into our system with GPS and a hand-drawn site diagram. On our next visit, we know exactly where every one is, even if your mulch covered them up.
- 03
Load with Always Active™ bait.
Stations ship pre-loaded with bait termites prefer over wood. No waiting period, no "monitoring-only" mode, the system is working the moment it's in the ground.
- ✓Free inspection with written report & photos
- ✓Sentricon station install (typically 8–15 stations)
- ✓Annual monitoring, re-baiting when necessary
- ✓Forterra-backed warranty (active while monitored)
- ✓Free station maintenance, broken, moved, re-diagrammed
- ✓Re-treatment guarantee if termites return
Protected for as long as you're a customer.
Let's be straight: our Sentricon warranty is a standard retreatment warranty, not a damage-repair warranty. It covers termite control, not fixing boards. Here's exactly what that means.
- Free re-treatment if termites appear while you're on monitoring
- Ongoing maintenance of every station (broken, moved, re-baited)
- Repositioning stations for new construction, pools, additions
- Money-back if three re-treatments can't resolve the issue: we refund your most recent payment
- Repair of wood damage caused by termites (structural, cosmetic)
- Protection after you cancel monthly monitoring, warranty ends with payment
- Homes without Sentricon stations installed by Forterra

- $300–$400 preventative install
- $700–$800 if active termites are present

- Scheduled monitoring visits
- Station maintenance & re-baiting included
- Forterra-backed warranty stays active with payment

Workers locate the stations within weeks and colony elimination generally follows across a few months. There is no instant result and anyone selling one is overstating it. The monitoring starts working immediately, which on new construction over buried timber is the part that matters.
Bait is inside locked in-ground stations rather than applied to soil or the structure, so there is nothing accessible to children, dogs or livestock moving around the property. That containment is a large part of why the system suits acreage.
A liquid barrier treats the soil around a structure so termites die crossing it. Sentricon works through stations that foragers carry bait back from, so the colony is the target rather than the individuals arriving. Out here, where the colony may be feeding on buried site timber, that distinction matters.
We come back and treat it under the warranty at no extra charge. Around Aubrey the reason activity appears is often buried timber from site clearing rather than anything about the house, and monitoring is what finds that before the structure is involved.
Every station, on the regular cycle. On acreage we agree at the start which structures are in scope, because a monitored house next to an untreated timber outbuilding leaves the colony a food source and the reports would not reflect the real picture.
No, the work happens outside. On acreage we will want to know which outbuildings are in scope before the visit, because timber structures sitting on soil matter as much as the house and adding them afterwards means a second trip.
Stations go in around the perimeter at roughly ten feet, flush enough to mow over. On newer properties the landscaping is usually young enough that this is simple. Where a bed has been built against the slab we will say whether it is worth changing while we are there.
Re-treatment is covered while the plan is running, with no charge for the visit or the work. Existing damage is not covered, and that is true of every termite warranty rather than a quirk of ours. You get the actual wording rather than a paraphrase.
Priced per property. Out here the figure usually reflects how many structures are included rather than the size of the house, since newer construction on a simple footprint needs fewer stations than a home with several outbuildings in the job.
Out here the argument is about what is under the house rather than what is on it. Site clearing buries stumps and form boards, and a colony feeding on that shows nothing above ground for years. A monitored system finds that; a barrier applied once and forgotten does not.
